Leather Gifts For Men List
Below we’ve listed the top leather gifts for him and given a splurge option and a save option. Both are great gift ideas, but if you have the extra budget, the luxury leather gifts for him (splurge items) are generally of higher quality and will always last longer due to better construction and durability.
Leather Slippers
Splurge: MULO Suede Leather Slippers ($215)
Listed in GQ’s Best Slippers for Men in 2022 are MULO brand slippers, and we are not surprised. With a sleek, minimalistic style, these slippers are not only comfortable but stylish as well.
These slippers are 100% handmade with Italian suede and are lined with recycled moleskin that’s both soft and breathable.
With a natural rubber sole, these slippers provide great traction and can be worn while lounging out on the deck, or walking to the curb for recycling drop-off.
Save: Minnetonka Pile Lined Slippers ($55)
Touted as the “Ultimate House Shoes“, these men’s slippers have a moccasin-style design and are meant for both indoor and outdoor wear as they have a hard sole. This means your sweetie can wear them around the home and out taking the dog for a walk!
They are made with soft suede leather and are pile lined for warmth and comfort. The neutral color will go with just about every lounging outfit. And another big perk, you can get yourself a matching pair!
Leather Wallet
Splurge: Saint Laurent Leather Wallet ($545)
Nothing says “I love you” like a designer wallet and this is definitely one of our fave luxury leather gifts for him. When it comes to classy, Saint Laurent is where it’s at, and the wallets do not disappoint.
This full-grain leather billfold wallet is sleek and slim and looks extra sharp with the YSL logo appliqué. It boasts eight internal card slots, two receipt pockets, and two bill sleeves, making it a perfect size for everyday wear.
Oh, and it comes with a dust bag and presentation box, which is the cherry on top of this already perfect gift.
Save: Leatherology Thin Bifold Wallet ($70)
With 200+ five-star ratings, this leather wallet is definitely gift-worthy. At a great price point of $70 it’s a steal, and it has a sleek and minimal design similar to the luxury option.
Available in several beautiful shades, this wallet is made with full-grain leather and is perfect for everyday use. You also have the option to personalize it, which is always a nice added touch!
Leather Boots
Splurge: Taft Rome Leather Boots ($295)
These boots are the leather boots of 2022 (and they show no signs of stopping). With over 1400 five-star ratings, it’s no wonder we had to include them on our list of leather gifts for him.
As seen on our male model in this article, the Taft Rome Boot is rugged, yet stylish and works for both casual and formal attire. Made with full-grain leather and a leather sole, these versatile boots are a total head-turner.
Oh, and they are super comfortable and come in black leather as well. What’s not to love?
Save: Warfield & Grand Garrison Boots ($179)
Another well-rated leather boot at a lower price point is the Warfield & Grand Garrison Boot. Warfield & Grand focuses on designing high-quality shoes that “won’t break the bank”.
And, we agree – these do look like designer boots but are a steal for hand-burnished Italian leather. The boots come in three shades; chestnut, tan, and black.
If you aren’t able to spend $300 or more on a leather gift for your man, but still want to make a statement – these boots are it.
Leather Toiletry Bag
Splurge: Tom Ford Leather Wash Bag ($1,100)
If there was ever a sexy toiletry bag, this would be it! Made in Italy with pebbled full-grain leather this designer wash bag is sturdy, tried, and true.
A shaving kit is an excellent and unique leather gift idea, and it’s practical for everyday use and for travel. We don’t know a single man who couldn’t use one of these, and this one is the crème de la crème of wash bags.
If you have the budget – get it, get it, get it! Your man will be thrilled.
Save: Ted Baker Leather Wash Bag ($115)
If you still haven’t caught your breath from the price of the last wash bag, don’t worry – this one will bring your heart rate back down. The Ted Baker leather wash bag is a beautiful, much-more-budget-friendly option for a designer shaving/toiletry kit.
Made with genuine bovine leather and a large zippered pouch, it is durable and will fit everything your man needs for his day-to-day grooming. Not to mention it’s super stylish and sleek looking.
Leather Jacket
Splurge: Belstaff Supreme Motorcycle Jacket ($1,395)
If your man is a fan of the James Bond (Daniel Craig edition) aesthetic, a Belstaff leather jacket is definitely one to consider. It’s classy, grown-up, and incredibly well-made.
Belstaff made Esquires Best Leather Jackets of 2022 list, and it’s no surprise. Any man in this jacket is bound to look smoldering.
We’ll take one, shaken… not stirred.
Save: Quince Suede Bomber Jacket ($190)
For a different take on a leather jacket, go with suede. It’s classic, sexy, and on-trend. Quince is all about luxury for less, and they have designed a delicious 100% suede leather jacket that would look amazing on any guy.
The jacket is fully lined and comparable to designer versions from brands like All Saints and Ralph Lauren but at less than half the price. It also has a great five-star rating from reviewers!
Middle Ground: ALLSAINTS Cora Leather Jacket ($599)
If your budget doesn’t allow for a leather jacket in the thousands, but you still have a few hundred to spend, you’ll want to consider this highly-rated leather jacket from ALLSAINTS.
This brand also made Esquire’s list of leather jackets and the Cora jacket is a stunner. With a minimalist design and sleek style, it’s made with 100% sheep leather and lined with 100% cotton.
