The Best Jacket You Can Buy
Flint and Tinder Flannel-Lined Waxed Trucker Jacket
Even if he’s not into The Last of Us, he will very much be into this jacket that Pedro Pascal wears on the show.
Flint and Tinder’s waxed trucker is about as good a fall jacket as you’ll find. It’s a timeless look with a tough build, and it’s made in the U.S.A. The flannel lining gives it some warmth without going over the top. It’s a perfect mid-weight piece.

Best Bath Gift for Your Boyfriend
Brooklinen Super-Plush Robe
A robe? Yes, hear me out. Men don’t wear robes anymore, and that is a crime. I’ve started wearing one around the house, and it changed my life.
You feel put together, but you’re lounging. He will be, ahem, free to feel the breeze but not an aggressive eyesore to his significant other (you) or his roommates.

Apple AirPods Max
If he’s not already an AirPods Max guy, I suggest you make him one. They’re more comfortable and better looking than anything else on the market, and the sound performance is pretty great too.

Best House Slipper
Ugg Tasman Leather Winter Mule Slippers
Yes, you can buy Ugg Tasman slippers on Amazon. But you cannot buy these leather Ugg Tasman slippers on Amazon, and they feel a lot more luxurious than the other ones. The sheepskin suede outer is swapped out for a proper grain leather, resulting in a slipper that feels more put together and ready for a snowy trudge to grab the garbage can.
