Love it or hate it, Valentine’s Day is just around the corner which means that not only can you expect to see a whole lot of oversized teddy bears *cringe*, bouquets of red roses and dare we say engagement proposals flooding your social feeds, if you are in a loved-up relationship and like celebrating V Day, it’s also time to be thinking about what you’re going to get your other half.
One thing that I always find difficult is coming up with unique gift ideas (for any special occasion) because my fiancé and I have been together for so many years and you slowly, slowly run out of options (we personally bypass the hype of Valentine’s Day, skip the presents and enjoy a nice dinner out together instead at another time).
In saying that, the Hallmark holiday is a nice excuse to remind someone of how much you love them in the form of a gift. Here are 14 we suggest you add to cart (or bookmark for a later date—they also make awesome birthday or ‘just because’ presents).
Apple Air Pods
Whether it’s for taking work calls, blocking out the background noise (we don’t mean you, obvs) or listening to his fave tunes at the gym, every guy could do with a pair of Apple Air Pods in their life.

Nike Epic React Flyknit 2
This newly launched trainer by Nike is all the rage at the moment so make sure you bag your boy a pair before they sell out (and we’re guessing that’ll be soon).

Go Pro Hero7 Black
A gift that you too can enjoy? I mean, why not. The GoPro Hero7 is not only great for adventurous types (don’t worry if he’s not planning to go skydiving anytime soon), it also makes the perfect travel accessory for your next holiday together (PS. If you’re in Aus, there’s A LOT of public holidays coming up in April, just FYI).
