Older teen boys.... help!

Any ideas for presents for older teen boys? 16/17 year olds.

It's my son and it used to a nice pile of presents to open on Christmas morning but I just have no ideas this year.

He says money would be great but I don't give money for Christmas as a rule.

He'll need new trainers by then and I've bought a 3 in 1 charging dock for iPhone/Apple Watch etc.

I'd rather buy a few bits he will use than waste money as I have done previously.

He's into football, music (records) and xbox. But has all the football stuff, xbox stuff and loads of music.

I'm thinking his main present will be an IOU for festival tickets for next summer but it's the smaller presents I could do with some ideas for ......

Thank you!

We got DS festival tickets last year and had a fab foil mock ticket made on Etsy (complete with pic of the headliner).

Popular tree gifts here are:
aftershave
iPhone/watch charger
football/rugby top
gig tickets
clothing (specific)
lush
LP’s
trainers (specific)

We tend to ask for a list!

How about something like Japanese (or similar) snacks? You can get boxes from Amazon and you can just put the things individually in the stocking.

Ours loved personalised Coca Cola cans last year . I have a referral code that gets you £10 off if useful , I gave a few cans for friends too and one kept hers to keep pencils in so they were quite popular.

i get my eldest son American drinks (dr pepper cream soda cans are his fave) and sometimes a little American sweets / sweets of the world hamper thing (it’s more of a box than a hamper) from Amazon . Also last year I got him a mini fridge for his bedroom that he uses a lot for cold drinks if he’s up late gaming .
