As the holidays roll around once again, you want to show your brother-in-law you love him. But finding gifts for a brother-in-law without resorting to the same old boring tie or “ugly” sweater can be a challenge.
What can you get for the man who already has everything — including your sibling’s undying love? Whether you’ve considered your brother-in-law part of the family for years or he’s the newest addition around the holiday table, you’ll love these unique brother-in-law gift ideas.
1. Support His Favorite Team
It may drive your sister crazy that your brother-in-law spends every Monday night tied to the TV. But he’s not stopping anytime soon, so you may as well help him root for his favorite team in style with a licensed hat or jersey from his favorite team.
2. Create a Custom Football
If your brother-in-law is the type who’d rather be on the field than watching from afar, a customized football is one of the most unique gifts for a brother-in-law you’ll ever find. Upload a logo of his favorite team, his child’s team, his name, or a fun, personalized message. When holiday dinner is done, you can use your brother-in-law’s gift for a family game of touch football to burn off some of those mashed potatoes and pumpkin pie.
3. Top It Off With Tickets
Let’s say you adore your brother-in-law. An “experience gift,” like tickets to see his favorite team play at their home stadium, will earn his endless gratitude. Bonus: His spouse (that’s your sib!) gets to enjoy the adventure too.
4. Get a Laugh With a Geeky Gift
If your brother-in-law embraces geeky endeavors over sports, consider a geek t-shirt to help him show off his nerdy side. From engineering to video games, these clever shirts will garner a laugh — and give your brother-in-law an excuse to wear something fun to wear at the next family gathering. Who really wants to dress up for these family parties, anyway?
5. Show Him How “Super” You Think He Is
Thanks to the recent successes of superhero movies at the box office, comic book swag is hotter than ever. These Superman t-shirts won’t go out of style and are a great way to show your brother-in-law you think he’s out of this world.
6. Get Him Ready for Barbecue Season
For the brother-in-law who loves to cook, this personalized “grillmaster” apron will spark a smile. For the man who doesn’t necessarily need an open flame, but is also comfortable inside the kitchen, consider any one of our customized aprons, adorned with your brother-in-law’s name in a wide choice of designs.
7. Serve Up His Favorite Brew
Let’s face it. Most guys won’t complain if you gift them with their favorite drink, whether that’s a selection of craft beers or something harder. Level up that seasonal beer collection with a customized beer glass or stein. Your brother-in-law deserves it.
8. Give a Gift He’ll Use Every Day
Most people don’t go far without their smartphones. If this describes your brother-in-law, he’ll treasure a new iPhone case to protect his phone in style. Choose one that reflects his favorite hobby, has a quirky pattern, or his name or monogram. You can also upload a favorite photo to create a one-of-a-kind iPhone case your brother-in-law will love.
