No matter if you're shopping for the person you've been with for nine months or nine years, finding the best gifts for boyfriends isn't always a walk in the park. The search feels even more fraught around Valentine's Day, when the pressure to be romantic is at its peak. Fear not—we have expert-tested gift ideas any boyfriend will love on his birthday, or any day of the year.

You can always gift him experiences, like taking him out to fancy dinner, or even finally agreeing to go fishing. But if you're honest about his taste, material items are always welcome. If he's picky, or even worse, indecisive, it can make it even harder to decide on a present he'll love. Your best option is to consider gifts that make his life easier or more enjoyable—small luxuries that he wouldn't normally treat himself to, whether they're gifts under $20 or luxury gifts for him over $2,500.

To get you started, we've pulled together 48 gift ideas—a mix of tech gifts, budget-friendly gifts under $100, and luxury gifts for the man who enjoys the finer things in life—guaranteed to please. Whether you're supporting a current hobby or helping to introduce him to a new one, you'll find plenty of unique but unilaterally pleasing options. Yes, they're meant to be gifts for him, but there are plenty of them that you can also put to good use—sharing is caring, after all! A nice watch, a new signature scent, or even a fancy new coffee machine are all worth considering. And even if you're not in the market for a birthday (or anniversary, or Valentine's Day) gift, you might want to bookmark this story for later.
