Mens Gift Guide

Stocking fillers and small gift ideas for men

Some of the best gift ideas for men are also the easiest to wrap. The Avedon Sunglasses in tortoise or dark havana add polish without a size to guess, the Papori Neckerchief in onyx cotton ties a summer outfit together, and the Hand Enamelled Bar Cuff Links carry weight well beyond their size. Round it out with small accessories built for easy giving.

Christmas gifts for men ready for Australian summer

Christmas gifts for men in Australia call for a different kind of list. The Resort Shirt in navy fine seersucker stays cool through a long lunch, the Chainmail Swim Short moves easily from the beach to the backyard, and the Canvas Sand Shoe finishes the look without trying too hard. Explore more through our swimwear and linen edits built for the season.

Gifts for the man who already has everything

For the man who has quietly acquired everything, Christmas gifts for him need a different angle. The knitted Milano Blazer replaces a jacket without asking him to dress up for it, the Royal Cashmere Cardigan adds a layer he'll reach for long after the tree comes down, and the Alfresco Loafer in dark chocolate suede finishes the argument nicely. Browse the wider outerwear and blazers editions for more of the same idea.

Shirts, ties and the rest of the gift list

A shirt or tie earns extra credit at Christmas for looking considered rather than last-minute. The Bonnard Shirt in olive and the Western Shirt in washed denim both sit easily under a knit, while the Diamond Jacquard Wool-Silk Tie and Geometric Medallion Print Silk Tie carry the occasion when the table gets dressed up. Explore the wider ties and casual shirts collections for the rest of the edit.

Wrap it up at a P. Johnson showroom

Some gifts are better chosen in person. Visit us in Sydney, Melbourne or Brisbane, or further afield in London, Jakarta and New York, and our team can help with sizing, wrapping or steering things toward tailoring altogether. Book a fitting at our showrooms before the Christmas rush begins.

How should I size knitwear, belts or accessories when buying a Christmas gift for someone else?

Ties, cufflinks and sunglasses carry no sizing risk at all. Belts and knitwear are more forgiving than tailoring, so a best guess based on his usual size is normally close, and our team can help with an exchange if it isn't.

What is the difference between the Avedon and Harper sunglasses?

The Avedon brings a classic, slightly rounded shape in tortoise or dark havana, while the Harper takes a sharper, more angular line in black. Both are built for everyday wear rather than one season alone.

Can a Christmas gift be exchanged or altered at P. Johnson?

Yes. P. Johnson offers exchanges and alteration services in our showrooms, so a gift that runs slightly large or small through the body or sleeve can be adjusted after the day.

Which gifts work best for Christmas in the Australian heat?

Linen and fine seersucker shirts, swim shorts and canvas footwear all suit a hot Christmas Day better than heavier knitwear, though a lightweight merino polo still earns its place for air-conditioned family lunches.
