Subscribe him to hardcover Monthbooks

Give the gift of your family’s most treasured moments, printed in 30 5x7” pages for just $15 a month (yes, shipping is free). Instead of letting your family’s memories sit forgotten in his camera roll, he can print his son’s first fly-fishing trip, his daughter’s first visit from the Tooth Fairy, and sweet moments stolen during date nights. This brand new monthly photo book subscription comes in sage ombre or four single colors: blush pink, slate blue, sage or black.

Shower him with goodies from a tailored theme box

After taking a quiz on his likes and dislikes, you’ll be able to preview a mix of unique products built around a specific story or theme created by Bespoke Post. The goal of this box is to introduce him to something new and exciting, like a better way to shuck oysters or a stylish travel-sized grooming kit. Previous boxes have offered goodies ranging from a cocktail smoking kit to a weekender bag. One box costs $45 (US shipping is $3.95) and typically has items worth more than $70.

Surprise your craft beer lover with a delivery

Prices vary based on his picks but shipping is always free.

Gift him softcover Monthbooks

For a present that costs only $10 a month, our brand new softcover Monthbooks subscription is super affordable and even easier to create. If he’s always snapping pics, whether he’s at the soccer field or inventing a new culinary creation, these 5x7” photo books were designed with his vertical phone photos in mind.
