Gifts for the male Disney fan in your life
Men can be so hard to shop for. Jewelry may be an option, but not like it is for women. Clothes — well, they may need new clothes, but they may not realize it. If you’re starting to scratch your head over what to get the men in your life, here are a few ideas.
Classic Disney
This Mickey Mouse long-sleeve thermal t-shirt is wonderful — lightweight but warm
because of its fleecy inside. A small embroidered Mickey Mouse
gives it that Disney flare without going overboard. $49.95
Does he still wear a watch? This create-your-own stainless steel watch lets you put
a personal stamp on it. You can choose the color of the face and the character
etched on it, and add a personal engraving on the back. $99.50
A robe is sort of a classic, fallback holiday gift. But you don’t have to settle for just
any old robe. He can feel like he’s on vacation all the time with a Disney Parks robe. $79.95
He’ll be ready for the family reunion — especially if his family name happens to
be Gracey — in a Haunted Mansion rugby shirt, $46.95
Tell him he rings your Belle with a Gaston’s Tavern sign to decorate
his man cave. $65, 11” high by 18” wide
Star Wars
There are a million Star Wars t-shirts out there, but this one from ThinkGeek
looks the most delicious. Mmmm … bacon. $19.99
Is he always carrying around a notebook? Consider giving him a Moleskine with personality.
The large notebook measures 5″ x 8.25″, has 240 pages and comes in a Darth Vader wrapper.
The smaller one is 3.5″ x 5.5″, has 192 pages and comes in a Han Solo wrapper. The pages
of both are lined. $18.95 and $34.99.
If Han Solo had had a business card, it probably would have said, “Made the Kessel Run
in less than 12 parsecs.” Your guy will have to settle for presenting his cards
in a Han Solo in carbonite business card holder. $19.99

Marvel
Longtime Marvel fans and newcomers alike should find something engrossing
in the 432-page Marvel Encyclopedia, which was updated and expanded earlier this year
to coincide with Marvel’s 75th anniversary. $26.37 at Amazon.com.
Sure, you could get him a Captain America sweatshirt, but real heroes wear leather.
This jacket is custom-made by the Leather Jacket Store and sold on Etsy.
$199.99 in sizes from XXS to 5XL.
Muppets
Did you know Jim Henson drove a Rolls Royce Silver Cloud to his college graduation?
Or that Henson and Frank Oz imagined that they would be voicing Bert and Ernie
from their rocking chairs well into their 90s? The Brian Jay Jones biography of Jim Henson
published last year is full of this kind of quirky detail. If your man enjoyed the 2011
Steve Jobs biography by Walter Isaacson, he’d like this too.
