There are 40^th birthday gifts for every man below.

Let’s jump into the best 40 gifts for 40^th birthday man that he wants to get from you.

Throw the birthday boy a 40^th birthday party.  It doesn’t even have to be big but he will love that you took the time to put it together.

2. Watch

Whether it is a smartwatch or this classic watch by Fossil, he will love getting this from you.

3. Shoes

Is your guy into shoes?  Hook him up with a new pair.  I know so many guys who love Hey Dudes.

4. Hat

Get a new ball cap from his favorite sports team, or something of the like.  This is a gift he is sure to use.

5. Hair Trimmer

Help him keep his facial hair on point with this Philips Trimmer.  It has steel blades and is battery-powered.

6. Tie

If the birthday guy has to wear a tie to work, consider getting him a new one.  This is the perfect gift for him from the kids.

7. Slippers

He will enjoy how easy it is so put these Ugg slippers on and how cozy they are.

8. Wallet

If your birthday guy is anything like my husband, he will wear his wallet out before he gets a new one.  Now is the time to get him a new one.

9. Sunglasses

There are so many different and amazing styles of sunglasses for men so pick the ones you know he will love.  However, you can never go wrong with Oakley Sunglasses.

Keep your man smelling his best with a new bottle of cologne. 

What does your guy like to wear?  Let me know in the comments below.  My husband likes to wear Perry Ellis 360° Red but wants to change things up.

Almost every guy I know carries a pocket knife regularly.  Having a good one is essential, like Kershaw.

12. Wireless Phone Charger

A wireless phone charge is a game changer when it comes to charging phones and he will love using this gift every day.

13. Massage Gun

Since he is 40 (so old, right?) his muscles may need help from time to time and this massage gun is so great!

14. Back Scratcher

This wonderful back scratcher makes it easy for him to scratch his own back now.  You are off the hook😊 (mostly).

15. Golf Clubs and Balls

Does he like to golf, get him a new set of clubs (if he has been looking for some).  Golf balls are an amazing gift your kids can get for him too.

16. Poker Chips

My dad got this set of poker chips about 15 years ago and they still look brand new even though they have been used a bunch.  These are so great.

17. Gym Bag

19. Drink Glasses

He will feel extra fancy while sipping his drink with these glasses.

I can’t say enough good things about the BruMate Can Cooler.  These keep drinks cold even in 110°F heat and that is from personal experience.

21. Favorite Snacks

Keep his birthday gift simple by getting him his favorite snacks.  My hubby loves pistachios and we always get them for his birthday.

22. Grill

If you want something big to get him, go with a grill.  Now, girl, this is something you probably want to ask him about because he more than likely has one in mind.

However, my Dad has the Traeger Grill and Smoker and wow it makes food taste so fantastic.  This one is worth it.

23. Grill Utensil Set

If he is all set with the grill, get him a new grill utensil set.  They just need to be replaced now and then.
