Personalised football gifts for him.
Birthday, Christmas and anniversary ideas for a boyfriend or husband who already owns the shirt. Budgets, sizes and the details worth getting right.
Build your print from £9.99Pick the match, not the merchandise
The gift lands when it is tied to a day he talks about. The away game you went to together, the season they went up, the first match he took you to. Anything with only a badge on it could have come from the club shop.
Put yourself in it
A print of the two of you in the stand, in club shirts with your own names on the back, works far better as an anniversary or Valentine's gift than a solo portrait. It is a football gift and a couple's gift at once.
What to spend
Under £20 for a digital file. £25 to £30 for a framed A4. £40 for a framed A3, which is the size worth choosing if it is going in a living room rather than an office.
Details to check first
His club, the shirt names and numbers you want, and who is in the picture. Use the names you call each other. A shirt number that means something, like the date you met, gets noticed more than a squad number.
Last minute
Digital files arrive within 48 hours, so it still works the night before. Framed prints need posting, so leave several days for those.
For the man who buys his own stuff
If he buys every gadget and shirt himself, a custom print is one of the few things he cannot have already bought. It is also the only football item that puts his own family in the ground.
Something the club shop cannot sell
A custom print puts the two of you in the stand of the ground he knows, with the right names on the shirts. It does not date with the kit and it is not something he could have bought himself.
