Things To Buy Your Cool Dad

A modern take on conventional gifts for fathers day. From handkerchiefs to wrist watches, button downs and brouges, here’s a comprehensive, cool-dad guide to fathers day gifting.

 

 

 

Don’t ducks on a button down linen blend shirt just say dad all over it?

Naked & Famous ($118)

 

 

Give dad an update on his near sighted, far sighted, reading and everyday glasses with these smart looking specs.

Warby Parker (available in non prescription and prescription options 150$/$95)

 

 

Dad can tote a Brooks Brothers Umbrella around town and look oh-so gentlemanly, and of course, dry.

Dad can wear a blazer, look sharp and you can spend under $75.

UNIQLO Men Dry Easy Jacket ($69.90) 

 

 

A good set of gloves is like a good set of shoes; both are essential.

The Flat Head Brown Deer Gloves ($160)

 

 

From one dad to another, designer Mark McNairy knows just what dad wants on his feet.

Mark McNairy “Chocolate” Country Brouge Shoes ($406)

 

 

Kung Fu Room Pants. For when dad isn’t wearing his suit, give him pants he can really relax in.

“The future belongs to the few of us still willing to get our hands dirty”. Sounds like advice straight from dad’s mouth.

SoCal’s Iron & Resin Hankercheifs ($15)

 

 

Adidas Trefoil Anniversary Gold Watch: this is a bit on the pricey side, but dad is worth it right? Only 500 will be made. It’ll be available in select Adidas stores on Saturday for $599.

 

 

The Dapper Gentlemen Grooming set round off the whole mod-dad look. And being well groomed is always a good look.
