PSA: men’s rings can be so much more than just wedding bands
Everyone knows that women enjoy receiving jewelry for just about any occasion, but men like to celebrate milestones too. It sounds weird to even have to put that in writing, but for most men, their wedding band is the only piece of jewelry that they’ll ever own.
Not because they don’t want more, but because no one thinks to gift it to them. We talked to Gentlebands, one of our favorite men's jewelry brands, about this and what they had to say was enlightening, to say the least.
Whether they wear it on their sleeves or not, men are sentimental creatures. They like to celebrate and be celebrated as much as women do and jewelry is a great way to do just that. Jewelry, especially quality, durable pieces like Gentlebands, can serve as a daily reminder and can be the little nudge that keeps them going on a tough day.

when to gift
Of course, weddings and anniversaries are perfect opportunities to gift a ring, but there are a ton of other appropriate occasions. Rings are a great gift for graduations too or other life milestones like a new job or the birth of a child.
Free Custom Engraving
We also love that Gentlebands offers FREE custom engraving (for a limited time!) which adds that extra sentimental touch, you can even engrave icons and images.
And you don’t need to be romantic partners to gift a ring, they also make great gifts for friends, brothers, dads, and business partners. Gentlebands have so many cool materials to choose from: Tungsten, Glowstone, Meteorite, Titanium, Whiskey Barrel, Damascus Steel, Antler, and even Dinosaur Fossils! Each material carries a special meaning or can capture a part of their personality. Imagine giving your dad a ring for Father’s Day or for a milestone birthday, maybe an antler ring to remind him of hunting together, or a ring with an inlaid guitar string that will make him think about all of those late-night campfire jam sessions from when you were young.
something for everyone
In addition to their unique materials, Gentlebands pulls inspiration from the coolest places. Here are a few of our favorite collections:
galactic legend
For this collection, they drew inspiration from classic sci-fi films and video games–"forcebound rings inspired by a galaxy far away”. You can even choose which side he’s on, but we’re partial to the “Rings of Darkened Enigma”. So if your man is a Star Wars fan or a gamer, this is the collection for them.
chain collection
Gentlebands also understand that wearing a ring isn’t always practical, but men want to keep it somewhere safe and close to their hearts. That’s why they introduced a line of elegant chains that make the perfect gift for your wedding day or any other special occasion.
