If he's a sweaty, restless sleeper who can't get through a whole night without waking (you) up, Slumber Cloud's lightweight comforter built with NASA-approved cooling technology might do him (and you) wonders.

Polished, luminous, and not industrial-looking, TAG Heuer's Calibre E4 is a classic timepiece he'll wear forever. But wait, here's the twist: It's a smartwatch, too; one with advanced health and fitness monitors that'll bring out the best performance in him.
Originals Desert Boots
You probably don't get it, but he does: A pair of classic boots with some scuff or scrape, a fascinating backstory, and an ever-enduing style icon status is one he'll want to wear for years on end. But even if he doesn't get it, you do now. Help him.
Ace Sweatpant
Once your husband gets their thighs on these ace sweatpants for chilling around the house, he'll never want to take them off. And because they aren't frumpy like his old gym sweats, that's even better.
Premium Carbonator III
Head him off to a life of getting fizzy whenever thirst takes over with Aarke's decidedly more stylish and functional take on soda maker.
FirePit+ Smokeless Grill

He'll want the right backpack he can take to the office, airport, and the Bahamas. Troubadour's Pioneer, made with modern minimalist style in mind, as well as durability and waterproofness, not to mention quite a few handy hidden pockets, is the right backpack.

Smaller than you think and niftier than most, this portable pizza oven that gets everything done in just one minute is one he can take to the beach and eat out all slices of a Hawaiian, or use at home and live up to his title as a Meat Lover.
The Glow Light
Ironically, instead of diving into pitch black right away, having Casper's magical dimmed light on actually winds one down to sleep—then wake up to natural light—better.
MLB Game Used Bat Bottle Opener
Every baseball-watching husband is pretty certain he'd bat.300, if only the Sox gave him a shot at the plate. This is the next-best thing: a bottle opener crafted from a bat used by his home team.
