Christmas Gifts For Your Brother: Ideas He'll Actually Like

Brothers are easy to buy for once you stop overthinking it: something that makes him laugh, something for his hobby, or something he'd never buy himself.

Some of the things we suggest here are sold by other shops, not by us. Where we link to them, we say so.

Funny

  • A mug or card with an in-joke only you two get.
  • A funny pin badge for his jacket or bag.
  • A daft childhood photo in a nice frame.

Useful upgrades

  • A good beanie and gloves.
  • A quality water bottle or travel mug.
  • Wireless earbuds or a phone stand.

Hobby and experiences

  • Match or gig tickets you go to together.
  • A gadget or kit for his hobby.
  • A pub lunch or go-karting day, your treat.

Card messages

  • "Merry Christmas to my brother - thanks for being the second-favourite child."
  • "Happy Christmas, bro. Same time next year."
