We’re generally not in the remind-you-about-holidays business. But on the off chance that you’re feeling a little heat for Father’s Day, we’ve gone ahead and compiled the definitive list of patriarch-appropriate gifts—all available to pick up within the next 48 hours. Which is 2,879 minutes more of a head start than you had last year.
You don’t know much about Dad’s youth. But you’re fairly certain he was never a big wave surfer. Still, this collection of Echo Beach–inspired stained glass fins and twin tail boards makes more sense than you’d think. After all, it’s never too late to teach an old dog how to hang 10.
Playing catch with Dad: emotionally rewarding. Playing the slow con with Dad: financially rewarding. So you’ll get Pop some poker lessons and then book a private hold’em party complete with dealer, open bar and felt card table for him and his friends/unsuspecting marks.
Listen, we don’t know your old man personally, but if we had to guess, we’d say he probably likes cheeseburgers. Or beer. Or hot towels. But just to be safe, you’ll get a package of all three from Sharps and the Burger Joint. Every lunch should come with a straight-razor shave.
Hallmark cards, that’s for Mother’s Day. When it comes to Dad, it’s best to express your sentiments in a manner he’ll truly appreciate. Like a personally engraved message on the outside of his Maduro-wrapped Nat Sherman cheroot. (Or you can stick with an extended man hug.)
By this point in time, we approximate your dad’s body to be composed of anywhere between 65% and 77% pure coffee. So really, he sort of needs one of these reusable, 64-ounce, 12-hour cold-brewed Stumptown java jugs. His very survival may depend on it.
