Last week, we tackled gifts for the women in your life, so it's only fair to follow up with gifts for the men. Just like last time, we polled male friends and family and asked them what gift they really want to get this year, with one stipulation: that it's under $100. The pool runs the gamut from freelance creative types to business suit-and-tie. Some are fresh out of college and some are in retirement. It's worth noting that there were multiple requests for thick colorful socks (no kidding) and down outerwear from Uniqlo. Check out the full list of 30 gifts after the jump.
