TGR Staff -11/12/2021
In putting together our 2021 we decided to follow the lead of what we did last year featuring products we have tested, personally bought, or used throughout the year. No affiliate links or sponsored inserts, each product here is something we have personally tested, used, and believe in (with the exception of the Janus Motorcycle which we will be riding soon, we just loved it too much to not include it).
From our favorite watches, boots, and books, to the only fragrance we have all universally agreed on, this list is made up of unique gift items that most men would love to find under stuffed in their stocking or perhaps parked in the garage.
Porsche At Le Mans
Packed with photography, narrative, and race results, Porsche at Le Mans is the definitive illustrated history of Porsche’s 70 years of competition in the world’s greatest motor race. The perfect gift for the Porsche or Motorsports Lover in your life.

Szanto Automatic Officer Coin Cushion
Give the man in your life some James Bond-style with the N. Peal 007 Collection. This classic watch cap is inspired by the one worn by Bond in the explosive car chase resulting in Bond and Kara sledding briskly down the mountain in her cello case doubled up as a toboggan, escaping Russian soldiers’ fire by crossing the Bratislava border into Austria, in The Living Daylights (1987).
Gerstner & Sons is an American treasure and maker of some of the finest wood products on the market, from their classic toolboxes and cases to this exceptional field bar. Any man of taste would appreciate the quality and craftsmanship.
