40 Birthday Gifts 60 Year Old Men Will Enjoy
Though every year brings change and development, men’s tastes really start to change once they reach their 60s. Though by no means boring, the things that excited and entertained them in the past no longer do. They’ll still be overjoyed to receive a thoughtful gift, but the same variations of the standard gifts that served you well in the past will start to lose their luster.
This doesn’t mean that you should give up, though. Rather, it’s time for a change of perspective. Consider what their interests are now, not what they were ten years ago. To help you to think of some ideas, we’ve put together a list that covers just about everything a 60-year-old man could ever want, whether he’s a grandfather who wants to relax by the fire with a glass of whiskey, or a badass Harley rider who will never stop hitting the open road.
If the 60-year-old man in your life appreciates something else that gets better with age, he might enjoy a nice set of whiskey stones. These stones will chill his finest glass of Glenfiddich or Tullamore Dew without watering it down. This set is a perfect any-occasion gift for the discerning drinker in your life. It comes in a beautiful, heritage-style wooden box with two crystal glasses that will immediately add a touch of sophistication to a home bar. These stones also won’t absorb any freezer odors thanks to the handy velvet bag the set comes with.
As people get older, taking care of themselves and finding ways to relax becomes even more important. Nothing is as relaxing as a nice, deep massage.

It’s small enough to take with him to the office or on a road trip (thanks to the included AC car adaptor!). It even has a heated massage option.

There’s nothing quite as rejuvenating or essential to good health as a good night’s sleep.
