The first gift idea on our list is shoes. If you’re willing to splurge a little for the man in your life, a pair of shoes proves to be a well-loved item of clothing. In fact, a study made in Britain has shown that men spend more on shoes than women do as they look at it as an investment [1]. Meanwhile, some men love shoes—sneakers in particular—as it reminds them of their childhood [2].

For gift ideas, you can check The Nobleman’s collection. The Nobleman is a local brand that creates locally-made boat shoes for an affordable price, one of which is the Del Pilar boat shoes which retail for PhP1,850.
