Just under two weeks until Father’s Day. And while some are satisfied to buy the most important man in their life a last-minute necktie, a mug or a mug with a necktie on it, we thought you might be more interested in... this stuff. Consider your status as “the favorite” locked down.
If you’ve ever had a hard time spotting your dad on the beach, here you go: a futuristic beach towel with a funky triangular shape and a waterproof pocket big enough for his smartphone. And his George Costanza wallet.
Last year, it was Yardbird for Father’s Day brunch. Now, 57% of your conversations are about his unending hankering for Jeff McInnis’s fried chicken. Get him this cookbook with 50 ways to cook fried chicken (and sides like Michy’s watermelon Greek salad). And if he happens to want to make something on Sunday...
If all the texting Dad’s been doing about the Heat and your 401(k) contributions is making his thumbs hurt, send him to Acqualina Resort & Spa for a 25-minute thumb massage with warm paraffin wax. Now if you could only get him to stop sending group texts about his golf swing.
Before you treat Dad to brunch and a poolside bucket of beer at the Standard, grab these amber-colored Striped Ale Warby Parker sunglasses from the shop. He’ll love their modern take on ’60s cool... and the opportunity to wax nostalgic about the ’60s for the rest of brunch.
Dads. They like to let you know that they know more things than you do. So when he unwraps his aftershave balm, drop some knowledge about the age-defying properties of the 24-karat gold flecks inside. Then, enjoy the silence.
