Readers, this post comes from our contributing author, Big B. He's has impeccable taste (whether he's talking about the hottest/sexiest boots for women or the most flattering pants for men), strong opinions on all things fashion-related, and he's also a devoted husband (of 10 years!!) and the dad of two adorable kiddos. If you missed his first Gift Guide for men, check it out here.
Also, a reminder of Big B's tenets of choosing gifts for men: "We are simple creatures, we are not complicated, trying to buy us elaborate or complicated gifts rarely works. Trying to buy us clothing that is out of our personality range rarely works. Most of us enjoy tradition, simplicity, experience, and quality."
And with that...here's Big B...
****************
If your man happens to like clothing (raises hand), it’s always fun to get some quality pieces:

Coats - $150 - $400
For the outdoor worker go with Carhartt, for the dressed up try J. Crew's Peacoat or Scotch and Soda's Duffle Coat.
Bonobos Pants - $80 - $200
We could all use some pants that fit right and you will like the way they fit him. They cost a little more than your average pair of Dockers (and please don’t let him wear Dockers) but they also offer a really cool discount for public service folks, i.e. teachers, police officers, fire fighters, etc.
