"Valentine's Day is often thought of as the quintessential Hallmark holiday - and why wouldn't it be? Most of the time, it's marketed to us with massive floral arrangements and heart-shaped chocolates, both of which can come off as borderline twee. But no one says you have to play by the rulebook when it comes to holidays, especially if your husband or boyfriend couldn't care less about the classics."
"If you're hoping to express your affection for the man in your life with something a little different this year, we have some thoughts. Quince's cashmere crewneck is quickly becoming a staple in our closet, while past favorites like Glocusent's necklamp and Image3D's custom viewfinder make for excellent substitutes if you want something less cliché. Hell, name a roach after him. We guarantee no one else will."
Valentine's Day is typically presented with classic romantic gifts like large floral arrangements and heart-shaped chocolates, which can feel twee. Many people may prefer nontraditional or practical gifts for husbands, boyfriends, or male friends who don't care for conventional romantic gestures. Alternative suggestions include clothing like a Quince cashmere crewneck, functional gadgets like Glocusent's necklamp, and novelty items such as Image3D's custom viewfinder or even naming an insect. The selection spans multiple categories and price points, enabling choice for friends, romantic partners, or any self-proclaimed 'dude' seeking less clichéd Valentine's Day presents.
