Melbourne-based shoelace-makers Mavericks Laces has packaged together two pairs of shoe ties, depending on whether the lad you’re gifting has been mostly naughty or nice this year. Opt for express shipping before the end of today to ensure Mavericks’ carrier pigeons arrive with your laces in tow in time for Christmas, or pop in to Bread & Butter in Bulimba to select your own colour combos.

For the avid traveller, try a Le Labo Santal 26 candle, with smoky and leathery notes, and an Armand Diradourian eye mask made from cashmere and silk, so the voyageur in question will think of you each time they step into a new hotel room, wherever they’re venturing in the world. For the gent who keeps himself looking sharp – or one who needs to up his game – opt for the Lucky Tiger Moustache Wax from Pureman. Or if consumables are more the passion of your recipient, simply drop a bag of Cup Coffee Roasters beans in the stocking, or a Japanese drop of Nikka Whisky from The Barrel.
