Gift Us One Time, Boyeee

2007 Holiday Gift Guide for Guys

You’d give all the men in your life a Tesla Roadster, but really, who wants a high-performance electric convertible? Here are a few gift ideas sure to please the gentlemen, no matter how they roll.

Zoom, Zoom
For the film buff, Star Wars: A Pop-up Guide to the Galaxy (Books & Books, 265 Aragon Avenue, Coral Gables; 305-442-4408) celebrates the movie’s 30th anniversary with working light sabers, pull tabs, and other interactive marvels. Blade Runner Ultimate Collector’s Edition includes five discs, a spinner car replica, and unicorn figurine, all packaged in a limited-edition, numbered Deckard briefcase.

Tune Up
Music is his radar? Send him to the Everglades for the four-day Langerado music festival to hear R.E.M., Beastie Boys, Thievery Corporation, and 80-plus other bands. Help him get the Led out with Mothership, the new two-disc, 24-track set that spans LZ’s career, and The Song Remains the Same, a remastered DVD of their three-night Madison Square Garden concert in 1973, with tons of extras.

Nothing but Premium
If he’s got more beauty products than an Estée Lauder warehouse, hook him up at the new spa at St. Regis (1 North Fort Lauderdale Beach Boulevard, Fort Lauderdale; 954-465-2300), where the Fit for a King package includes a men’s facial and hot stone therapy. Or help him play dress up in local designer Rene Ruiz’s (2700 Ponce de Leon Boulevard, Coral Gables; 305-445-2352) new handcrafted, double-the-silk, seven-fold tie.
