Half of the fun of Halloween is pulling together a show-stopping costume (the other half is consuming all of the candy). But if you're not a huge fan of dressing up or are looking for last-minute ideas that don't require a lot of effort, you're in luck! Our list of simple and easy Halloween costumes for men include a bunch of creative options.
You can opt for a store-bought costume, complete with masks and props that rival what you see in the best scary movies. But another option is to go for a DIY costume that's made up of items that you already have in your closet (and if you're running low on time or love the thrill of creating something from nothing, this may be the best route to take). So pull out a button down shirt and pair of suspenders for a funny interpretation of Family Matters' Steve Urkel, or repurpose your favorite black suit and shades and become one half of Men in Black for something a little cooler.
If you're aiming for first place at your neighbor's annual Halloween party or just want to be one of the best dressed dads at your child's trunk-or-treat event, these quick and clever costumes are just for you. And trust us, eve "lazy costumes" can still be Halloween-approved!
Looking for more great ideas? We've got costumes for the whole family.
