Groomsmen Gifts

If they're outdoorsy types...I knwo someone posted a cooler type bag with built in ipod speakers and stuff...

All of my groomsmen are outdoorsy so we are gettting them the cooler...

It wasn't my idea though, I totally stole it from someone else.

Yeh Dez,

that caricature thing is kinda cute... but I wouldn't want that hanging in my house... that would go right up there with the melted beer bottle art, and deer heads that made it to the garage when FI and I moved in together.

The cooler IMO is a disposable gift, you don't keep it for a long time the way you would a piece of jewellery.... ya know what I mean?

Maybe I'm too fussy.

What about golf club(s) or fishing rod(s)...my dad has some clubs that he's had for over 40 years due to sentimental reasons...

this site has some great hunting/fishing gear that is personalized. we have some of this stuff, and it's great quality...lasts forever. also, the color selection has several "manly" colors.

they also have koozies, bottle carriers, passport covers, etc...

We still haven't decided what to give as gm gifts yet. fi was thinking eagles tickets but they are hard to get good seats at a reasonable price.

We got our guys engraved decanters and matching engraved glasses. They LOVED them!

OK so this probably won't work for your guys, but maybe someone else would find this useful...a friend of mine just had a wedding recently and they gave their guys those Nike skateboard shoes that you can customize, and had their wedding date on the one side and I *think* the guy's initials on the other side (the only picture I saw had SB on the one side, which is the guy's initial, but also stands for SkateBoard so I don't know whether that was personalized or not).

Here is the best link I could find: Nike iD Mens Shoe

I'm not sure if that's the right place or not, but it'll give you an idea.

I would defnitely consider this for our guys (they're major shoe people), except my FI (and one of his groomsmen) works at adidas so that wouldn't exactly be a good idea!

Well said, Dez!
