“Is it really Father’s Day again… already?” Says me at 6 am scrambling to compile this comprehensive Father’s Day guide in hopes of helping others needing to still buy gifts for dad.
This time around I decided to break my guide down by category, featuring a few products I think are worthy of a purchase for dear old dad. Prices range from cheap to pricier, however, all are solid gift ideas for Father’s Day.
Style Gifts for Dad this Father's Day

Indosole’s mission is to make the perfect and cleanest looking eco slides on the market. I think they’ve won. Their materials are sourced from natural rubber and made with their signature recycled tire sole technology.
California Cowboy Men’s Tropic High Water Shirt

Men’s Embroidered Shorts from Castaway Nantucket
Castaway Nantucket embroidered seersucker shorts are made from surf washed seersucker, they are truly comfortable and boast a classic tapered fit. Seersucker’s weave creates a natural puckering which causes the fabric to be largely held away from the skin when worn, dissipating body heat and venting cool air circulation.
Shinola – The Runwell Automatic Watch
The Runwell was Shinola’s first watch and it promptly established them as a powerful force in the watch industry. With the Runwell Automatic, Shinola offers its first ever automatic movement in an heirloom-worthy timepiece that marks the pinnacle of quality craftsmanship.

Home Gifts for Dad this Father's Day

This workstation combines strength and convenience, giving a product that can fit a variety of needs. Holding up to 680 lbs., the Mobile Workstation is an ideal addition to any garage and can easily be wheeled outside for when dad wants to get some fresh air while working on his next project.
Solo Stove Yukon Backyard Fire Pit
The Solo Stove takes wood-burning fires up a notch with a stainless steel body and engineered airflow that burns wood more efficiently and with less smoke. The Yukon is their biggest fire pit yet, with enough room for a large group to gather ‘round and enjoy the warmth and glow of a wood-burning fire. Light it up in the backyard or bring it to a campground, the sleek fire pit will burn efficiently and with less smoke so all you enjoy are the flames.
Braun Classic Wall Clock
Wall clocks tend to be either ornate or overly utilitarian. Braun’s BC17B lands right in the middle. It has an easy-to-read dial layout with light san-serif numbers set against a dark background. Its hands are powered by a quartz movement, including the yellow-tipped second hand that silently sweeps across the clock face, tick-free. It’s housed behind a semi-tempered glass lens and runs on a single AA battery (not included).
Dumpsty – The Original Desktop Dumpster
Dumpsty is a miniature dumpster made for your desktop. From the side fork pockets to the tiny molded text on the rubber lids, everything has been meticulously recreated down to the last detail. Measuring a broad eleven inches across (the perfect size for magazines), and handmade from actual steel, they’re authentic recreations of their full-sized counterparts, and each has its own unique character.
Cool Gear/Gadget Gifts for Dad this Father's Day
The Sneerwell Hellbound Flask
Perhaps no piece of gear speaks more to the character of the man carrying it than a flask. Its style and appearance often conveys as much as the liquid housed inside. That’s exactly why we are so fond of The Sneerwell’s Noble Flasks. Each of these screw-top 6 oz beverage containers, which are made of sturdy food-safe stainless steel, features a hand-etched design and a unique patina.
Porto Vino Messenger Bag
Discreetly take your wine, or any beverage, and pour from the spout anywhere you go. Dad will love this, because he will be the talk of the party or wherever he takes his bag with him.
The James Brand – The Carter
They started with a cult following of folks who gave a damn about what they were carrying, but now, The James Brand has won over EDC enthusiasts of all backgrounds. As their most advanced everyday-carry knife to date, The Carter is designed as a modern silhouette with classic outdoor cues, a solid in-hand feel, and a new locking mechanism.
YETI Collegiate Ramblers
College is so much more than four years. YETI’s collegiate collection of designs will look clean on your dad’s Rambler. Of course, if dad isn’t a college sport fan, YETI has a ton of other awesome products.
