Favorites For Fathers: A Dad's Day Gift Guide

(Via Izak Zenou)

Dad's come in all shapes and sizes and from all walks of life.  It's hard to pin down the perfect gift, because dads are a bit difficult. I think what they really want the most is our love, respect, and some special time together. After all of that, a present is just icing on the cake.  

Here:  My Fave Finds. I Hope Your Father Fancies Them, Too.

Barneys New York


W + P Homemade Gin Kit
For DIY Dads. He'll make bright, herbaceous gin that’s perfect for Negronis, Martinis, Gin and Tonics, and more, right in his own kitchen.  Cheers, Pops!
Sur La Table


Travel Chef BBQ Set
Most Dad's think they are King of the grill, this gift will confirm it. Any grill master will proudly carry these tools of the trade from family picnic to the block party.
Uncommon Goods


Ultimate Pantry Basket
A great gift to send to Foodie Father's across the miles! Delivered from Salumeria, Chef McNaughton’s artisan deli and larder. All the items—from house-made salumis to artfully-crafted olive oils, vinegars, salts, and more—will come with a note from Thomas explaining why he uses them in his own award-winning restaurants.
If Only


We Wood Watches
Even if Dad has a collection of watches, he probably doesn't have one of these.  WEWOOD fashions wooden timepieces from mostly scrap-wood and uses state-of-the-art Miyota movements. The result is an unique watch that's both handsome and earth friendly.  Best yet, You buy a watch and they plant a tree!
We - Wood


BT Eco-Friendly Paper Bag
If Dad takes his environment seriously, he will appreciate this utility tote by Monocle this Summer.  An architect might tote his rolled blueprints, a businessman will use it as extra space for file folders that don't fit in the briefcase. The boater will tote his belongings to and from the boat. A gardener will carry his tools. Well, you get the idea.
Need Supply


Crosley Radio Executive USB Turntable
Old School cool with a twist! If Dad has a record collection, it probably is a little dusty now. A portable, vintage-style turntable easily converts your old records from vinyl to digital files. Stereo speakers play his favorite tunes at full volume.
Nordstrom's



Hamilton Beach Drink Master 
The key to most men is thru their stomachs. Which dad wouldn't love a milkshake? This retro machine turns his counter into a soda fountain. A yummy idea now on sale.
JC Penney


Bogner Polo Golf Shirt
Even duffer Dads will look like pros in this color blocked Fire + Ice shirt with exclusive Heritage embroidery. Sold only at
Bogner


Flight 001 F1 Spacepak Set
Here's a fab find for the frequent flyer or road warrior. This four piece set will keep him organized wherever in the world he lands.


Overlap Tray By Offi 
Work at home Dads will appreciate the portability a tray offers. This hybrid table allows him to bring his office with him, check email on the deck, sit in front of a fire, or enjoy breakfast in bed.
2Modern


GIORGIO FEDON 1919
MW Canvas and Leather Duffle Bag
From the Michael Wong collection, this luxe looking carryall will make Dad feel first class anytime he uses it.
Forizeri


Fragrance For Fathers
If Dad has been splashing Old Spice and English Leather for years, it's time to step up his game. Give him something as unique as he is. Think palm leaves and sea salt from Heeley Paris, notes of cedar wood and vetiver of Ulrich Lang New York, and the Spicy amber fragrance called Boise 1920. He'll love your originality.
Barney's New York


Apple iPad Air
Is Dad a gadget guru? If he loves anything "Apple," the new iPad Air is the best gift for any Dad OR Grad! It's lighter than air, which makes it fantastic for flying Fathers.  My own cyber challenged husband, Mr. Shop This, really enjoys his - much more than he thought he would. Dad will read the paper, get MLB scores, and read e-mail on the fly. Find his best choice now on sale at

Boatman Geller Monogram 
Phone Case
Get personal with Dad and dial up some style. This perfectly preppy cover can be designed with his favorite fonts for almost any phone he might be carrying.
