Up on the blog today, it's all about Dad. If there's one thing our fathers have taught us over the years, it's to plan ahead. Although Father's Day 2022 is just a week away (it's Sunday, June 19, FYI), it's definitely not too early to start looking for a gift that best says "thanks" to the guy who taught you how to drive a stick shift.
Finding a good gift for Father’s Day can be really difficult — especially with all those “traditional” dad gifts out there that are just, well, boring. So this year, we’ve looked around for some special, interesting gifts for dad in a wide range of types and prices.
The Tech Dad
The most advanced Apple Watch features powerful health innovations like sensors and apps to measure your blood oxygen and take an ECG. The larger, Always-On Retina display makes it easier to use and read. The most durable Apple Watch. Charges faster so you can get going quicker. MOST ADVANCED HEALTH FEATURES — Keep an eye on your blood oxygen with a revolutionary sensor and app. Take an ECG anytime. Get irregular heart rhythm notifications. Track your sleep. Use fall detection as a safety feature that can call for help if you need it. Plus it's so stylish. How could Dad not like it?
The Stylish Dad
Ray-Ban New Wayfarer sunglasses take the iconic shape of the Classic Wayfarer and infuse a slightly smaller frame and softer eye shape perfect for Dad. These unisex sunglasses are non-polarized and manufactured from durable nylon, making them lightweight and able to hold up against frequent use. Prescription ready and made from glass.
The Cocktail Enthusiast
One of the pleasures of an Italian summer evening, limoncello is a drink that's served —ice cold—as a "digestivo," or after-dinner drink. Making your own is a breeze with this kit: all you need to add is vodka, sugar, and lemons. As beautiful to look at as it is delightful to drink, limoncello also mixes well with soda, prosecco, and any fruit flavors that are complemented by citrus.
The Sustainable One
Take your love of coffee to the next level with these socks made from recycled coffee grounds. (Yes, we’re totally serious.) This mind-bending material is created by gathering grounds, melting them, and mixing with recycled plastic bottles for the ultimate sustainable sock. The result is a warm, moisture-wicking, durable pair fit for all adventures or everyday wear. And if they weren’t cool enough already, these socks are seamlessly printed with tranquil landscape scenery. Color us impressed. Made in Taiwan.
The Fit Dad
The experts all say the same thing: When it comes to your fitness routine, recovery is just as important as the exercise itself. Help Dad Take time to soothe his hardworking body with Emily Rose McNabb Butler’s trio of self-care products. First, fill the tub with warm water and add the bath salts made with a blend of bergamot, lavender, and sandalwood essential oils—all known for their calming aroma therapeutic properties. Next, lather up with the skin-nourishing bar of soap scented with patchouli and sage. Then, once you’re out of the tub and dried off, smooth on the muscle rub made with an intoxicating blend of clove, ginger, immortelle, and sweet marjoram oils. All together, this relaxing treatment will help get you good and ready for your next workout. Handmade in Austin, Texas.
The Metrosexual
Nothing like getting up every morning in the great outdoors, right, fellas? The bracing air, that crisp, woodsy scent...oh, you don't live in an off-grid cabin? No problem: Céline Jennison's handcrafted grooming kit will make Dad feel—and smell—as if he did. Wake up to the rich lather and warm aroma of Black Cedar Soap as a body wash, face cleanser, shaving soap, or all of the above. Enriched with jojoba and baobab, Woodlands Pour Homme functions as a skin-softening aftershave or quick-dry beard oil, and leaves behind a deep woods scent of cedar and spruce. Tree Balm is a go-anywhere rescue ointment for chapped lips and dry skin that'll open nasal passages with invigorating eucalyptus and pine oils. And in the handsome gift box, you'll find four Tree I.D. Postcards with illustrations that identify deciduous trees by their leaves—so you won't just feel like a woodsman, you'll have the smarts of one, too.
For the guy who is after comfort.
There’s no such thing as “balls of steel.” But there is such a thing as the BallPark Pouch™. Super-soft and supportive, each pair comes equipped with this patented 3D pouch.

The Wine Drinker
From a birthday Burgundy to an anniversary Syrah, some wine bottle corks are destined to become keepsakes.
Dads are hard to shop for, period. They never seem to want anything, and they probably don't curate elaborate wish lists the way moms do. But the best Father's Day gifts do exist, and I hope this list brought you to the perfect present to show your appreciation for everything your dad, or honorary dad, has done throughout your life.
