Men are hard to buy for mostly because they say they need nothing. So this list skips novelty and sticks to things he will reach for every week: a proper weekend bag, good knitwear, a wallet that replaces the tired one. Seventeen picks from Prada, Louis Vuitton and Loewe, each linked to the brand’s own website.
The Shopping List is an independent editorial selection, for reference only. Ayerhs Magazine does not sell these products and does not earn a commission from any link on this page. Every link goes to the brand’s official website. Prices are in US dollars as listed on the brands’ US sites on 13 November 2026; they vary by country and can change.

The big presents
1. Louis Vuitton Keepall Bandoulière 55
$2,780
The weekend bag by which all others are judged, in black and grey Monogram Eclipse canvas with a removable shoulder strap. It is cabin size, so it goes straight into the overhead locker.
2. Prada wool sweater
$1,920
A dark brown virgin wool crew neck with a nylon chest pocket and the enamel triangle logo. It is the Prada mix of classic knit and technical detail in one piece.
3. Loewe oversized hoodie in cotton
$1,500
From Loewe’s collaboration on Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas: a black cotton fleece hoodie with a 3D embroidered snake on the front. A collector’s piece for the film fan.
For cold days
4. Loewe scarf in wool and cashmere
$850
A double-faced wool and cashmere scarf with a Jack Skellington jacquard and fringed ends, from the same Nightmare Before Christmas collection. Black and white, so it is easier to wear than it sounds.
5. Prada wool and cashmere gloves
$750
Navy knitted gloves in virgin wool and cashmere, finished with the enamel triangle. Nobody buys themselves good gloves, which is exactly why they make a good present.
6. Prada wool beanie
$650
A soft, chunky black beanie in virgin wool with the triangle logo on the cuff. It also comes in navy and slate grey if black feels too safe.
7. Louis Vuitton My Monogram Eclipse hat
$420
A grey wool hat woven with the Monogram all over and an embroidered LV signature. The pattern is tonal, so it reads as texture from a distance.
Everyday carry
8. Louis Vuitton Slender Wallet
$700
A slim bifold in blue coated canvas with eight card slots and a bill compartment. Thin enough for a jacket pocket and a clear upgrade on whatever he carries now.
9. Louis Vuitton LV Initiales 40mm reversible belt
$635
Two belts in one: Monogram Eclipse canvas on one side, plain calf leather on the other, with the LV buckle in dark ruthenium. He can wear the quiet side to work.
10. Loewe Puzzle coin cardholder
$490
Black grained calfskin with four card slots, a zipped coin pocket and the embossed Anagram. For the man who has given up on a full wallet.
11. Loewe Jack head charm in felt
$750
A felt Jack Skellington on a looped calfskin strap, made for keys or a bag handle. It is the one playful pick here, and the most Christmas of the lot.
Jewellery
12. Prada enameled metal ring
$525
A steel and black enamel ring with the Prada triangle built into its shape. Check his ring size before you buy.
13. Louis Vuitton Keep It bracelet
$280
A single-loop bracelet in Monogram Eclipse canvas with aged silver-tone hardware. It is the least expensive piece on the list and the easiest way to give Louis Vuitton.
Four more worth a look
14. Prada wool scarf
$695
A navy chunky-knit scarf in virgin wool with the enamel triangle logo. It matches the beanie and gloves above, if you want to give the full set.
15. Louis Vuitton Double Card Holder
$500
Four card slots and a central pocket in green coated canvas. A slimmer, brighter alternative to the wallet above.
16. Prada leather card holder
$440
Black natural-grain calfskin with six card slots and a discreet stamped logo. The understated choice for someone who dislikes visible branding.
17. Louis Vuitton Catch It bracelet
$370
An adjustable Monogram Eclipse bracelet with small LV and Monogram Flower charms. It is made to stack, so it pairs with the Keep It bracelet above.
