Gift Ideas For A Man Above 60 Years
Exercise Items
Normally, people do not have much work to do after 60 years. They have enough spare time to exercise and indulge in health building activities. You will generally see most of them going for morning walk or jogging. If the person of your acquaintance has also taken up some exercise, you can present him with running socks, sweatband, workout gloves, etc. If he wishes to go for cycling, think about gifting him shorts, helmet and a water bottle.
Sports Goods
Find out if the person is interested in any particular sports. Buy some goods used in that sport and gift him accordingly. If he is a golf-lover, gift him a golf stick, golf balls, shoes or tees. You can even present him with a bag, bowling ball or shoes, if you find out bowling to be his favorite sport. Some people love going for fishing. In this case, consider getting him bait, scaling knife, waders, rod or a hat.
Electronic gadgets
Electronic gadgets like headphones, software CDs, memory stick, video games, ipod, digital film scanner, digital photo frame, and digital key rings also make up a good gift for men above 60. However, ensure that he really loves electronic gadgets, or else he will not be able to make the best use of your gift.
Apparel
Apparels are the most convenient gift for a man above 60. However, you need to know his color and pattern likings before buying him such stuff. You can gift him a sweater, polo shirt, t-shirt, tie, casual jacket, scarf, wrinkle-free pants, etc. You can also get some accessories like gloves, sunglasses, or cuff links, etc.
Tickets & Vouchers
Is the person madly in love with cricket, football or hockey? If yes, what will please him more than a ticket to his favorite sport event, happening in the nearby area? If he had been yearning since a long time to be the member of a particular club, get him the same this time. You can even buy tickets and packages to his ideal destination and let him have a fantastic outing.
Personalized Items
Personalized items always score over other gifts, in conveying one’s personal love and care. You can get a personalized coffee-mug, bracelet with his initial, his favorite book with his name engraved on its cover or a classic black leather wallet with his initials in gold or crystals, etc. Even a personalized t-shirt, a classic watch or a silver parker pen can be expressive about your feelings for him. Get hold of some photos that reflect the best time he spent with the most important people of his life. Frame them and make the best gift for him. If you can get some of his childhood and youth photos, assemble their collection in an album and present him with the same. You will see the old man getting elated by recalling his memorable days!
