What to buy yourself this Christmas

Everything we’re taught about Christmas is that we should give, give, give. And while, of course, Christmas is still a time for giving to others, we’ve also come to the conclusion that it should be a time for giving to yourself. Let’s face it, you probably don’t get half as many gifts as you did 10 years ago, and you’ve worked hard all year, right? You deserve this. If you’ve struck some luck, you might have received a Christmas bonus or maybe you’ve got a little bit of money from your savings throughout the year. Whatever the case, we are true believers in the act of giving to yourself, and here are the items we believe every gentleman has the right to own and should invest in for himself this year.

Every gentleman needs decent luggage, and you genuinely can’t go wrong with Globetrotter who are one of the most classic, timeless brands in the world.

Globetrotter, £1,400

The right kind of winter coat is something that every gentleman needs to own – and if you make the right type of investment, it’s likely that you’ll have one that will last you for years.

Every working gentleman will understand the importance of owning a fine briefcase, and Dunhill make some of the best in the business.

Make this the winter that you start wearing a fedora, gentlemen. It’s an item that many can pull off, but that a lot are afraid to try. Borsalino offer some of the most beautifully crafted around.

No list such as this would be complete without an impeccable suit on it. And while we appreciate that an item such as this costs money, it’s an investment that we truly believe is worth making, gentleman.
