Luxury Travel Bag Set, Aspinals of London
Deluxe travel items abound for men who enjoy classy vacations. Choose from a list of special travel gifts, and make his next trip one in which he'll travel in style.

Your father, grandfather, adult son, and boss are all certain to be thrilled with any selection from this list of classy men's travel-themed holiday gift ideas. And your friends? You know any guy would be psyched to unwrap one of these deluxe travel items! It'll make their Christmas that much brighter.

These seven low tech gift items are easy to enjoy, and require no batteries.

  • Charles Tyrwhitt has a fancy shaving products line, all easy to pack and in manly navy blue boxes and jars. Order items separately, or in a package. The Grooming Gift Set includes Lemon & Cedar Shaving Cream, a classy razor and shaving brush, and Lemon & Cedar After Shave Balm. His next vacation will be a clean-shaven one, that's for sure.
  • Aspinal of London has sleek travel bag sets, in canvas or leather. The set is of two pieces; a Weekender and larger Grand Tourer size. Masculine, classic, and undeniably handsome, these are travel bags he'll enjoy carrying. Christmas travel has never been more stylish.
  • Chateau Mouton Rothschild is one of the world's most sought-after wines. The man who receives a bottle of Chateau Mouton Rothschild will know that you have impeccable taste in wine, and also that you spent a huge wad of cash on him. If you're going to be a guest in someone's vacation home, this gift will surpass all the bottles of wine he'd yet received. This fabulous wine company's long history includes wine bottle labels designed by Picasso, Chagall, Warhol and more.
  • The Grunwerg Luxury Corkscrew is masculine and easy to use. The ergonomic design is very hardy. Order the Connoisseur Deluxe Corkscrew Set, and get a foil cutter as well. Opening a bottle of fine wine from your hotel suite has never been easier! Pair it with a bottle of Rothschild (see above), and the guy will be grateful for life.
  • Another classy, low tech travel item that makes for a special gift, is the Vitellino Nappato briefcase by Bottega Veneta. While it has the standard lock enclosures and divided interior of less quality briefcases, the Bottega Veneta line is synonymous with luxury leather goods. Luxury business travel has never looked better!
  • For men who don't do all their writing on laptops and blackberries (there seems to be a blackberry addiction among some busy professionals), Montblanc provides the ultimate in fancy, classy pens. While the Montblanc company also makes watches, perfume, and other high end accessory type items, Montblanc pens are really their claim to fame. This classy luxury gift for men will let them write a travel log in style.
  • Eat chocolate to clear up your skin? Sounds counterintuitive, but that's exactly what the BORBA Clarifying Chocolate Bar claims to do. It's almost 2 oz. of dark Swiss chocolate, with BORBA Nutraceuticals cooked right in. The company claims that BORBA promotes skin clarity and reduces irritation. Funny, I thought it was only women who use chocolate to reduce irritation! How nice for a guy to return from a trip, and find one of these fancy candy bars waiting for him.

Those 7 luxury items would make great gifts for men (and women) any time of year. Father's Day, Christmas, even their birthdays will be made unforgettable, when you make a deluxe present of any of these gifts.

The Montblanc pen sounds perfect for pushing the buttons on my Blackberry. I do agree the Blackberrys are addicting. My Cellular One service didn't cover Europe while I was there this summer and that's the most peace I've had in a great while. I'm not sure about promoting skin clarity, but wine and chocolate are great gifts!

Some people I know call Blackberrys CRACKberrys; that's how addicting they are. But, sometimes good ol' pen-and-paper can be reassuring, especially when you travel out of "service areas." :)

<p></p>These are some great gift ideas! I don't think people automatically assume men will want luxury gifts, but most love them! I like fancy travel bars, too. My husband found a cool one in Philly during a trip that has a combo lock, is leather, and holds a couple bottles, shot glasses, a jigger, etc. It would make a great luxury travel gift for a guy.
