Looking for last-minute Father's Day gift that doesn't look last-minute? Print out a gift certificate from a subscription box, and you're good to go! These are some of the best subscription boxes for men, and it's a gift they'll be happy to see every month!


  1. Bespoke Post
    For the design-minded guy who loves small-batch products
     Best Men's Subscription Box Gifts: Bespoke Post

    Bespoke Post "Prost" Oktoberfest themed box from September 2016. Not all boxes are food related - we think everyone can find a Bespoke Post edition that they are interested in!

    Why we recommend it: Bespoke Post is known for their well designed boxes that focus on high-quality products around a specific theme. They release a new set of themed boxes each month, and when you buy a gift, the recipient has the option to choose which box they want to receive… so you can ensure they’re getting something they want, but it’s more personal than just a gift card. Although intended for men and many boxes do include masculine accessories and personal care items or men’s apparel, some of the boxes are unisex and make great gifts for women, too -- like those oriented around food or home products.

    What’s in the box: It’s always different, but expect “best in class,” artisanal, small-batch products around various themes. Bespoke Post announces their new boxes each month and you can preview exactly what’s inside before you commit; see their current offerings by clicking "Boxes" on their website.

    OK, What else should I know:
    Price: $45/month
    Frequency: Monthly (but you can easily skip any month if you’re not interested in the current themes)

    How to give as a gift: Click “Gift a Gift” and choose a 1, 3, 6, or 12 month subscription.
