1. Troutdoorsman Crate

Hook, line, and sinker, the trout fisher in your life will be reeled in by the Troutdoorsman Crate. Showing appreciation for the life of trout, this crate is geared towards equipping fishermen with the tools necessary to make the most delicious meal out of the catch of the day. For $99.99, this crate includes everything needed to prepare trout from the blade right down to the seasoning from the retail company. Isn't that so much better than a gift card?

When it comes time to fillet, the Kershaw fixed knife included in the crate is the tool meant for the job. The waterproof and slip-proof handle offers the prefect grip while the stainless steal blade allows for intricate trimming. Once the filet is ready, the fisherman can choose a recipe from the Avant-Garde Recipes for the Trout Enthusiast, season the fillet with the O'fish'ial Blend Trout Seasoning, and then use Grandpa's Grill Holder to achieve the perfectly cooked fish.

With a waterproof-lined canvas creel bag to carry all your bounty in along with your chum, the Troutdoorsman Crate has all the necessities your fisherman's tackle box is lacking.

2. Hunting Crate

For the hunter in your life, there's the Hunting Crate. Preparing for the unpredictable, this crate offers some overlooked amenities a hunter needs when stalking prey in the woods. For $120, your hunter will receive a Stanley Insulated Vacuum Bottle, Elk Ridge Skinner Knife, stormproof matches, Duke Cannon's Hunting Soap, camo face paint, and camo form wrap.

When your hunter is tracking elk in the cold of winter, they can remain undetected and unscented with the hunting soap, camo face paint, and camo form wrap. And while they're patiently waiting to cross paths with their prey, they can keep warm with some hot coffee thanks to the Stanley Insulated Vacuum Bottle that keeps beverages warm for up to 28 hours. Of course the man in question probably has an insulated bottle, but isn't always nice to replace the old with new ones?

Then, once they make the kill, they can use the Elk Ridge Skinner Knife that features a stainless gut hook blade, silicone grip ring, hard nylon sheath, fire starter, diamond honing file, and bottle opener, along with the stormproof matches to prepare their hard earned meal.

3. The Clean Shave Crate

A good, clean shave is a luxury most men don't allow themselves. If that's the case for the men in your family, gift them The Clean Shave Crate. Like sitting in a barber's chair, this crate comes equipped with all the tools necessary for a smooth, clean shave, minus all the anxiety of a stranger holding a blade by your face.

For $139.99, The Clean Shave Crate has all the barber tools needed to achieve a clean shave over and over again. Items in this gift set include a Silver Tip Badger Brush for lathering, a Parker Razor for a close shave, five Shark Chrome replacement blades, and of course, a shave towel.

For the face buffer, there's the Imperial Pre-Shave Oil, glycerine face soap, and some good old after shave so you can re-enact a Home Alone moment. So whether the grizzly man in your life needs a good shave, the GQ man in your life needs some pampering, the Clean Shave Crate is the gift every man can use.

4. Whiskey and Woodworking Crate

After reading the book to gain inspiration, your woodworking man can adorn himself in the Offerman Woodshop Denim Apron that has built-in pockets for the beech mallet and wooden chisel included in the crate.

7. Disc Golf Crate

If the man in your family prefers a beer to go along with their recreational activities, then this is the gift crate for them. The Disc Golf Crate has everything your fellow needs to get started playing an 18-tee course, for only $74.99.

To begin their disc throwing adventures, the crate comes with an MVP cell starter bag has room to hold up to 12 discs, so the disc golfer has a free hand for their brew. And while your veteran disc golfer may geek out over their putters, mids, and long distance drivers, the beginner only needs a couple discs to start. This crate includes an MVP Tesla Proton Distance Driver to try and sink a hole-in-one, and an MVP Electron Atom Putter when they finally fish the driver out of the bushes and get closer to the basket.

Along with a Matte Black Stainless Steel Vacuum Insulated Beverage Holder to hide a beer can and a bag of sunflower seeds, because well, sunflower seeds, your disc golf enthusiast is ready to hit the green. Or course. Or really whatever plot of land they managed to hide disc golf baskets on.

And if you really want to say I love you with any of these crates, say it with the Salami Bouquet. Now that's true love.
