The short answer
The gifts husbands use most are practical upgrades: wireless earbuds, a quality wallet, a multitool, an insulated cooler or tumbler, or gear for his main hobby. Buy one good item in a category he already cares about.
He probably buys what he needs when he needs it, which makes December hard. The answer is to upgrade something he uses constantly or to feed a hobby he already has.
