The Modern Professional: Serran
It doesn’t matter whether it’s a merino scarf, a beautiful casual jacket or a leather weekend bag, Serran puts the same quality and attention to detail into everything it designs. All of the British brand’s products are crafted in Bermondsey, London, at a historic factory – an approach to production that ensures quality and allows the label to operate with zero waste. It’s the sort of stuff that would suit sharp, contemporary dressers who like to look smart without it feeling stuffy.
The Puffer Suit Jacket: We’re big fans of this insulated jacket, which straddles the divide between smart and casual. With its tailored fit and casual styling, it’ll be right at home with anything from a suit to your weekend jeans-and-T-shirt combo.
The Knit-Collar Shirt: A white button-up shirt is an absolute must for every man, but how can you improve on this classic design? For Serran, it was as simple as adding a knitted collar and cuffs – an unconventional move that breathes new life into one of menswear’s most fundamental garments.
The Bundle Box: Struggling to decide? Serran’s bundle box includes a scarf and a cardholder, all neatly presented in a rather slick-looking gift box. But these aren’t just any old scarf and cardholder – both are handmade in the UK using the finest materials and finished with Serran’s trademark attention to detail.

The Explorer: Millican
The Lake District is arguably the adventure capital of the UK, so it shouldn’t come as a surprise to learn that the most adventurous luggage label around has its roots there.

These bags are built to last and they look great too, making them excellent gifts for eco-conscious adventurers who like to get the most out of their kit.

The Minimalist: L’Estrange
London’s L’Estrange is a label committed to decluttering wardrobes and reinventing menswear’s basic garments. The goal is to enable men to do more with less, from a sartorial standpoint, thus reducing waste and putting a stop to needless consumption. The brand provides everything needed to create a multipurpose capsule wardrobe, and the clothes look top notch too.
The 24 Trouser: The 24 Trouser is so-called because it’s the only legwear a man needs, all day, every day. It’s designed with comfort in mind, featuring an elasticated waist with a concealed drawstring for adjustment, but it looks more chino/dress pant than jogger.

Who doesn’t like receiving a proper bottle of whisky for Christmas? And where better to buy it from than the world’s number-one online retailer of the good stuff. Since 1999, The Whisky Exchange has been sourcing the best whisky from across the globe and offering it in one place. All you have to do is pick which one you want – which admittedly is easier said than done with all that choice.
Port Charlotte 10 Year Old: It’s safe to assume that a company that has specialised in whisky for over 20 years will know a thing or two about what makes a good one. With that in mind, why not try this Port Charlotte scotch? It’s the site’s ‘Whisky Of The Year 2021’ after all.
Lagavulin 16 Year Oold: Described as the “most pungent of all the Islay malts”, this 16-year-old scotch is certainly not for the faint of heart. Jack-and-Coke drinkers need not apply – this one’s for the connoisseurs.

The Bearded Gent: The Art Of Shaving
There’s a common misconception that having facial hair is the easy option. Maintaining a clean-shaven look takes daily maintenance, right? And all a beard takes is a few weeks of sitting around twiddling your thumbs and waiting for nature to bless you with a lovely, shapely crop of hair on your chin. Wrong. A good beard takes hard work to perfect, which is why some equipment from The Art Of Shaving is such an excellent gift for any bearded, moustachioed or bestubbled man out there.
Beard Prep Kit: Featuring a beard wash, a beard conditioner, a beard oil and a travel bag, this covers-all-bases foliage maintenance kit contains everything a man needs to keep those precious whiskers in check, whether at home or on the move.
Panasonic Beard Trimmer: Like the idea of strolling out of the house in the morning looking like you’re fresh out of the barber’s chair? It’s as easy as having a good beard trimmer and this just happens to be one of the best.
Stubble Balm: Full beards get all the attention, but stubble needs love too. This fragrant balm is specially formulated for the shortest of beards to keep them soft, healthy and smelling great.

The Horologist: CODE41
There are few things most men would prefer to receive for Christmas than a luxury timepiece, but outrageous prices put them outside the realms of affordability for all but the most obscene of budgets.
That’s where CODE41 comes in. Granted, this Swiss brand’s image might not be in keeping with the rest of the luxury watch industry, but then pretty much everything CODE41 does goes against the grain… which isn’t a bad thing. These are proper watches, but without the mark-ups, and marketed transparently, so that you can actually see where your money is going.
NB24: This stunning chronograph is on its second edition after a huge success last year. Pre-orders are now open but if you want to bag one as a Christmas gift you’ll have to act swiftly as there are only 400 units available, and they’re going fast.
Anomaly 01: Crafted from forged carbon with a titanium skeleton, this otherworldly timepiece features a Miyota 82S7 automatic movement, incredible attention to detail and looks that set it apart from anything else on the market right now.
Anomaly 02: With classy, understated looks and a high-quality Swiss movement, the Anomaly 02 is a great option for anyone seeking something that can double as a dress watch and a day-to-day run-around. Best of all, it comes in at well under a grand.

Below are a few things we’d love to receive from Acqua di Parma and we’re sure anyone else with a functioning nose would too.

It includes the original Colonia eau de cologne, a bath-and-shower gel and a deodorant spray.
Note di Stelle Candle: Every man secretly wants his house to smell great all the time, particularly over Christmas. And what better way to achieve just that than with this eye-catching candle, featuring artwork in the iconic style of Emilio Pucci.
