Funny Scottish Christmas Gifts: Mugs and Tees for Him, Her and Secret Santa
Looking for funny Scottish Christmas gifts that'll get a proper laugh on Christmas morning? You're in the right place. Socks and shortbread are fine, but this year give a gift that sounds like your auntie after two sherries: blunt, rude, and secretly full of love.
Every mug and tee below is designed by us at RkDesignCompany and printed to order. They work for him, for her, for the Scottish pal who moved to London and won't stop going on about it, and for the office Secret Santa where a £10–£15 budget has to go a long way.
Funny Scottish gifts for him
Scottish men are famously hard to buy for. Ask what they want and you'll get "nothing" or "a quiet life". Neither fits in a stocking, so give them a mug that says what they're too polite to say (they're not polite).
Baw Bag mug
The Baw Bag mug (blue on white) is Scotland's favourite term of endearment-slash-insult on an 11oz ceramic mug. Between pals, calling someone a baw bag is practically a hug. There's also a green on white version if blue isn't his colour.
Hugo Taefach t-shirt
Read it once and it's a posh designer name. Read it again in a Glasgow accent and, well, you get it. The Hugo Taefach t-shirt is a unisex crewneck in sizes S to 2XL. If he'd rather have it on his desk than his chest, there's a Hugo Taefach mug too.
Funny Scottish gifts for her
Scottish women invented the side-eye and perfected the deadpan "aye, right". These are for her.
Go Taco Lotta Sh*te Elsewhere mug
A taco pun with proper Scottish disdain. The Go Taco Lotta Sh*te Elsewhere mug is for the woman who has heard your excuses and would like you to take them somewhere else, please. It's ideal for the pal who runs the group chat with an iron fist.
Still Game: Isa's "It's too good" mug
Every family has an Isa: the one who knows the gossip before it happens. The Isa "It's too good" mug is for your mum, your nan or the nosy neighbour you secretly adore. Fancy more Craiglang? See our Still Game gift guide.
Scottish gifts for everyone (and the homesick ones)
The Scotland Basic t-shirt is national pride with minimal effort. It comes in white or black, sizes S to 2XL. It's a solid pick for Scots at home and abroad, Scotland fans, and anyone who'll wear it to the pub on Boxing Day.
For telly fans, the Nae Points mug is a classic Still Game line to use on anyone whose cup of tea isn't up to scratch.
Scottish Secret Santa gifts
Scottish Secret Santa gifts are a fine art. You want something funny enough to get a laugh in the meeting room but not so rude that HR books you in for a "wee chat". Our 11oz mugs are £11.99 each, which sits right inside most Secret Santa budgets. Here's a rough guide:
- Safe for the office: the Scotland Basic tee, the Still Game Characters mug, Isa's "It's too good" mug.
- Know your audience: Hugo Taefach and Nae Points.
- Only if you're sure they've a sense of humour: Baw Bag and Go Taco Lotta Sh*te Elsewhere.
