Groomsmen Gifts?

What are you guys getting/did you get for the groomsmen? My FH and I are having a hard time thinking of stuff to get.. Typically they get shot glasses, beer mugs, bottle openers, etc. but my brother has been sober for the last few years and we thought it would be inappropriate to give the other guys flasks or something when we can't give that to my brother

we were thinking of maybe doing leather money clips, cologne, and a nice set of shaving cream and after shave.. but i figured i'd see what you all are doing to get a few more ideas!

Groomsmen Gifts? - Long Island Weddings

After much debate FH decided to go with really nice backpacks. He figured they were something that the guys would actually use. We looked at a few from the North face but ended up getting them at the Oakley outlet this weekend.

Other options he considered were wireless blue tooth speakers, watches, sunglasses, and buying different things for all 9 of his groomsmen that they thought they would each enjoy.

FH wants to get the guys jerseys. And his best man is also getting a really nice pocket knife that we're going to get engraved.

No we aren't putting anything in them because they cost about $120 each. We would have put beer or liquor in each one had we spent less on the actual bag.

@lauren1802 I love the waterbottle and towel idea! Maybe we will do the backpacks like @poggi suggested, and stuff them with things like that. I saw nice Under Armour drawstring bags
