With Christmas just around the corner, it's the perfect excuse to exchange gifts and show appreciation for those we care about. If you're still stumped on what to get that special guy, don’t worry - I’ve got you covered with some solid gift ideas! 😊
Quick tip: Send this article to your other half and see if you can get some subtle hints… 😉
Knitted Accessories
A timeless yet practical gift for the winter months - think hats, scarves, gloves, and socks. These cozy items are a thoughtful way to share warmth and comfort with someone special. ❄️
You’ll find plenty of knitted accessories on Dinh Liet Street in Hanoi. Skip the flashy, logo-heavy scarves like LV, Gucci, and Burberry, and instead, check out the hidden gems that offer high-quality options at great prices.
For something more high-end, stores like Mango Man and Topman offer stylish knitted accessories. Prices for scarves at Mango Man range from 900,000 VND to 1,000,000 VND, but the quality is definitely worth the investment.
Watches
If he’s into watches, this is a gift that’s hard to go wrong with - especially for enthusiasts who never seem to have enough. While a good watch can be pricey, it's always worth the investment.
Let me recommend Swatch - a classic Swiss brand that revolutionized the watch industry by proving that Swiss watches could be affordable without sacrificing style. Swatch Original models with plastic cases and silicone straps start at just 1.5 million VND, making it a great option for both men and women. Grab a matching pair for you and your partner for a cute, coordinated gift. 😉
For something a bit more masculine, the Citizen AN8095-52E, a stylish Aviator-style watch, costs around 5,060,000 VND. Known for its quality, this Japanese brand delivers durability and precision.
The Citizen AN8095-52E watch is priced at 5,060,000 VND.
Sweaters
There’s something so comforting about receiving a sweater for Christmas. Ladies, if you’re reading this, take note: we love receiving sweaters with round or V-necks, in basic designs, and slightly fitted. Why? Because they’re versatile and easy to pair with shirts we already own, like plaid or striped ones.
Mango Man offers great options that are both stylish and warm.
If you’re unsure about colors, you can never go wrong with black, gray, or navy blue.
Underwear & Socks
It’s the little things that count - underwear and socks with a high cotton content and a touch of stretch for comfort are always appreciated.
Topman offers underwear and socks in packs of three with unique, eye-catching prints for around 600,000 VND. If you’re looking for something more affordable, Giordano has packs of six simple colors (black, white, gray) for about 500,000 VND.

Perfume
A classic gift that’s always personal, perfume can add that finishing touch to any man’s routine. While you can find a great selection at local stores, my go-to recommendation is ordering from reputable international sites like Sephora to guarantee you’re getting the real deal.
For winter scents, try Issey Miyake Nuit D’Issey, Dior Homme Eau For Men, Calvin Klein Eternity Night, or Armani Code - these fragrances bring warmth and sophistication.
Wallets & Belts
Wallets and belts are some of the most popular gifts for men, and it’s easy to see why. If you're looking for a sleek, functional wallet, check out Bellroy - it's spacious yet slim.
For more options, stores like Pedro and Aldo in Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City offer modern wallets and belts in a variety of styles and colors.
When buying a belt, remember that the ideal length is when the belt passes through the first loop by about 1.5-2cm.
