Unique gift for boyfriend on his birthday

Whether you've been dating your man for two months or two years, you still might find yourself wracking your brain for the perfect holiday gift ideas for your boyfriend that show him how much you know and love him. After multiple Valentines Days and birthdays and dating anniversaries, are there any gifts that you haven't given yet?! (Spoiler alert: there totally are.)

There are a couple of different routes you could take to make Mission Christmas Present™ a success. You could find something super thoughtful that he mentioned he wanted months ago but never got around to buying for himself, like a new pair of sneakers or a super cozy hoodie. You could buy something casual yet useful, like a fancy box of beef jerky. Or you could splurge a little on a gift that he never even knew he needed in his life until he unwrapped your birthday gift: Self-sustaining aquarium? Argyle jeans? Burrito blanket? The possibilities are endless.

Ahead, you'll find super unique holiday presents for him that not only say "you're the best boyfriend ever," but also "I'm the best gift-giver ever." Now all you need is the perfect caption for that Christmas morning, matching PJs Instagram post you've been planning, and you'll be set for the season.
