The 20 Best Subscription Boxes for Men

The 20 Best Subscription Boxes for Men

There are never enough hours in a day to buy everything we need. That’s where subscription boxes for men come in. Whether you’re looking for semi-tailored clothes to be delivered to your doorstep, or a monthly collection of the best-grilled meats to cook, Dudefluencer’s list of the 20 best subscription boxes for men is here to help you out.

How did we select these top subscription boxes for men?

There are over 3,500 subscription box options available right now, and plenty of them offer less-than-stellar products. Here are the factors we considered when selecting the best subscription boxes for our list:

  • Functional: We discarded all subscription boxes that didn’t offer something that couldn’t be immediately useful to the recipient. We specifically looked for the best men’s subscription boxes in five categories: clothes, gear, beer, food, and grooming. 
  • Affordable: We capped pricing at $150 a month, though we prioritized subscriptions that cost under $60 per month. 
  • Reliable: We only looked at subscription boxes that had earned a positive reputation from online reviewers. 
  • Acceptable for men: None of the boxes we selected promote anything but positive masculinity. 

Each of these boxes presents something trendy, something delicious, or something handy (because you never know when you’ll need a survival kit).

Depending on your subscription package, you could end up with outdoor manuals (survival guides, plant manuals) and small survival tools at the $29 a month box, to sleeping bags and tents from top name brands in the $149 a month package. BattleBox works best for serious outdoorsman as a lot of the gear is designed for folks camping rather than glamping.

8. Breo Box

Dudefluencer: Breo Box

Every three months, Breo Box handpicks a selection of quality items to be delivered straight to your house. Part of the reason for the higher cost and quarterly delivery frequency is because of the quality of the items being sent out. 

For example, past boxes include Click and Grow Smart Gardens, Ekho Sports and Action Waterproof cameras, and a defrosting board. If you subscribe, you can expect to receive 5-8 items revolving around everyday essentials like fitness, health, and technology, depending on the season.

Best Beer Subscription Boxes for Men

9. The Original Craft Beer Club

Dudefluencer: Original Craft Beer Club

What’s great about this box is that it allows you to sample a variety of beers (curated by the folks at Craft Beer Club) to allow you to taste the best America’s microbreweries have to offer. One downside to this is that you have no option to customize what kinds of beers you like, or from what location, which means you may end up with a $42 12 pack of duds. Instead, expect a collection of brews with distinct flavors from unique locations that are guaranteed to make your friends jealous.

Who is it for?

Each box is seasonally designed, so you can enjoy those light, breezy summer cocktails shipped straight to your door in August and hearty winter drinks in January.

Saloon Box does not offer any customization options for your subscription boxes. Instead, Saloon Box chooses the recipe, the alcohol, and the bitters so you don’t have to spend time searching online, scouring liquor stores, and making shoddy mixed drinks. Saloon Box has got you covered.

With a variety of distilleries at their disposal, Taster’s Club allows you to choose from whiskey, scotch, bourbon, tequila, gin, rum, vodka, and wine for your subscription. It’s crucial to the company that customers are surprised by which brand liquor is delivered, so Taster’s Club doesn’t post current shipments on their website.
