Gifts for 18 Year Old Guys
If you're shopping for a guy who's 18, I've got a great list of gift ideas for him to help make your shopping quick and easy! He's going to love these gifts!
Worx Nitro 20V Compact Brushless 1/2” Drill/Driver
My husband, Orin, and I got married when he was 18 (I was 19). Our very first Christmas together do you know what he asked for for his gift? I drill just like this! As a man, he realized it was time for his to slowly start accumulating a set of tools for himself. This is the PERFECT first tool to purchase for a young man entering adulthood.
This drill is built with a high-efficiency brushless motor, which runs 50% longer, is 25% more powerful, and has a 10X longer life than brushed motors. The variable 2-speed capability adapts for a wide range of drilling/driving applications with a max no-load speed of 2100 RPM.
This tool is part of Worx's Power Share lineup of tools. The same battery powers over 75+ 20V, 40V, and 80V lifestyle, garden, and power tools in the Power Share™ family. We have probably 10 power tools from Worx and it is SO helpful that we're able to swap out the batteries as needed.
One of my favorite features is the bright LED light that activates when you use the trigger to illuminate dark work areas. It even stays on for 20 seconds after the trigger is released.
Cassio GA2100-4A | Analog-Digital Black Men's Watch G-SHOCK
Men love G-SHOCK! They are some of the toughness watches out there while also incorporating great style! Don't you just love the striking red color on this one?!
G-SHOCK watches are designed to take a beating. This model uses a carbon core guard structure. The case is made of fine resin containing carbon fiber that, although lightweight, exceeds the rigidity of normal resin, helping to prevent damage and deformation from impacts to protect the internal module.
Additionally, the two-layer structure of the back cover also guards against impacts to the back of the watch. The shock-proof button structure also allows the exterior to be designed without a button guard.
The design features a three-dimensional dial and a bold arrangement of large front buttons. Finished with a tough design that creates a powerful look.
He's going to love this watch!
Little Shop of Pins Pop Culture Pins
He'll love the cool pins available at Little Shop of Pins! They are great for accessorizing a backpack, work bag, ect. They have so many fun designs to choose from, like these "Chewie Wookie Cookie" and "Han Solo Cup" pins. Some other options include Hotwheels, Jim Henson Company characters, Smokey Bear, Paul Frank, and more!
The Athena | Portable Jump Starter & Power Bank
Every young man who owns a car NEEDS to own one of these! This jump starter is powerful enough to jumpstart up to a 6.0L Gasoline or Diesel engine in seconds, at least 15 times with one charge! The Athena's new intelligent battery clamps also have 8 protections built in to ensure that there are no sparks or shocks, even if used the wrong way.
It's great for more than just charging a car's battery though. You can also use it to charge a laptop, phone, ect., via USB-C, MicroUSB and (2) USB. And if that wasn't enough, it's even got a built-in LED flashlight!
PuroPro Hybrid Active Noise Cancelling Volume Limited Headphones
My husband has these headphones and LOVES them! Any 18-year-old guy will love them!
These great-looking, noise-canceling headphones help to protect ears by limiting the maximum volume. You can listen to them safely for up to 8 hours! They also offer a long battery life (up to 32 hours) plus Bluetooth capabilities.
The headphones fold for easy storage and come in a nice storage case.

Now they've expanded their line to expertly engineered performance sunglasses. Designed to withstand the elements saltwater anglers face every day, these sunglasses are made for all-day comfort no matter the conditions.
All Fin-Nor sunglasses feature our breakthrough Lateral Line Lens Technology, an innovative technology that enhances your vision through distortion-free color, unmatched sharpness, and precision optics.

You're Getting Old Card Game
In this game, you'll play against your friends to determine who’s managed to hold onto some semblance of their youth!
There are 300 available cards with prompts, each featuring two prompts: an “Old” prompt like “ You’ve scrolled through Spotify and thought to yourself, “Who the hell are these people?” If you have, woah you’re getting old and need to move forward a space. You can regain your youth by answering the “Redeem” prompts on the cards!
The first player to reach the last space is the loser. The player with the lowest space wins the game and gets the satisfaction of knowing they are younger…at heart.

Underwear are a necessity, get him the best kind on the market! My husband has Mackenzie & Park underwear and absolutely LOVES them! He says they are incredibly comfortable and fit perfectly!
