Man Crates For Delivery: What Could Be Inside?

There's a monthly subscription box that can fit almost any manly need or interest imaginable, from hygienic products to clothing, to food, to games and toys.

Subscription box services can be counted on to select quality products that suit your taste. With a click of a button and a monthly fee, you can have carefully curated boxes filled with food, drink, fashion, hygiene, and fun delivered directly to you every four weeks.

For The foodie:

1. Mantry - The Box For Men Who Need More Artisan Food In Their Life

Technically a bi-monthly subscription box, Mantry delivers six artisan food products every two months in a rustic handmade wooden crate, with each box curated around a certain theme (such as barbecue or grilling during the summer months).

Mantry is not your typical food subscription box. It doesn't deliver full meals to you to be prepared at home. What it includes are six individual items and a pamphlet identifying the items in your crate, explaining what they are, where they came from, and how to use them and incorporate them into a meal. They can even go so far as to include recipes on their website that use their products if you are looking for some extra culinary guidance.

With their high-quality products and presentation, Mantry comes in a little on the pricey side at $49 for a crate every two months, or $245 for their annual subscription which includes six crates.

Mantry requires a little more work than the average food subscription box, but for those willing to put in the effort to incorporate these high-quality curated items into their meals, you will be hard-pressed to find a box with better value.

2. Butcher Box - The Box For All Your Carnivorous Needs

Undoubtedly a man crate for the advanced home cook, Butcher Box has earned a spot on this list sheerly by filling a specific primal need and doing it with quality products.

Butcher Box comes with a hefty price tag of $129 per box, but included within is 8-11 pounds of 100% grass-fed beef, free-range organic chicken, and heritage breed pork (enough meat for 20-28 meals).

Butcher Box is by no means a subscription box for everybody, but it excels in providing quality meats to people who may not otherwise have access to them, and the website provides recipes using the meats they provide for those not sure which way they want to prepare their meaty feast.

3. Stitch Fix - The Box For Men Looking To Bring More Style To Their Wardrobe

Shopping for clothes can be an ordeal in itself, but easily finding clothes in your size that suit your style and wardrobe can be downright impossible. Stitch Fix has found the answer to this problem with their monthly clothing delivery service.

What makes Stitch Fix unique is that when you first sign up for their subscription, you are asked to answer a few questions regarding the clothing you like and your specific preferences. And from there, a stylist is assigned to your account who will send you five pieces of clothing every month.

The great thing about Stitch Fix is that of the five things they send you, you only pay for the things you want to keep and return the rest in the mail. This process not only saves you money and ensures your happiness with your delivery, but it also helps your Stitch Fix stylist make better decisions regarding your style and what to send you in the following months.

All Stitch Fix costs is a $20 monthly styling fee, and from there, you pay for the clothes you want to keep and return the rest free of charge. Stitch Fix is a great man crate catered to your exact taste and is guaranteed to level up your wardrobe.

4. Sprezza Box - The Box For Men In Need Of A Little Flair

While many fashion boxes offer the opportunity to embark on a total style overhaul, Sprezza Box is a smaller subscription box service for the men out there looking to add a little spice to their wardrobe through accessories such as sunglasses, socks, ties, watches, and more.

In any box, you can expect samples ranging from skin care to hair products to shaving accessories and more. The sample sizes are appealing because of the low-commitment factor, allowing you to try what you want without going all in on a new grooming routine.

When signing up for Birchbox, the first thing you do is fill out a Grooming Profile which helps determine the products best suited for you and your body. Then you choose between two payment options: Birchbox Man for $10 a month and Birchbox Man Plus, which includes a hand-catered full-size grooming product in addition to the usual five samples for $20 a month.
