5 Great Father’s Day Gift Ideas for Dads

It can be really hard to shop for guys sometimes, but Father’s Day is next week and I know some of you are still trying to figure out what to get. Here are a few suggestions, the subtitle of this post being  What my husband is really into right now;

1.

An Audible membership and a few books to start him off. This app has been revolutionary for my husband ‘s commute and for us on long road trips, he even listens to his books while doing work around the house. He love it.

I’m loving the Tembo Catchall from FashionABLE for him. I had a chance to see the impact this social enterprise has on the lives of women in Ethiopia first hand when I was there a year ago. Not only are their products high quality, and well designed, when you purchase them you improve the lives of others. There is no better gift than that!

3.

Beats By Dre Powerbeats Wireless bluetooth headphones. Totally portable and no more annoying cord! My husband uses his all the time for music, workouts and audio books.

4.

Logitech UE MEGABOOM Bluetooth Wireless Speaker is a mini portable speaker on steroids. This travels everywhere around the house, outside, and on the road with my husband. It rocks!

5.

Math Formulas Tie by Josh Bach at Uncommon Goods. Uncommon Goods is one of my favorite sources for gift giving, if this tie isn’t quite the thing for the person you have in mind, there are also the constellation socks, or the golf ball cufflinks, among other wonderful items to choose from.

What else would you add to this list?

Happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there!

5 Great Father’s Day Gift Ideas

Less than a month away, June 17th is right around the corner, so to help you start thinking about what to give this Father’s Day I’ve picked out a five favorite Father’s Day gift ideas that have caught my eye:

 

1. If the dad in your life likes cutting edge technology like my husband and father-in-law do, then he might love the new Lytro camera that uses light field technology to focus your picture after you have taken it!

 

 

2.    Tom’s Sunglasses 

 

 

 

A cool pair of sunglasses make a great Father’s Day gift.  The Tom’s motto is:  “One for One”, and you may have heard about the shoes before, but now Tom’s is making glasses too.  For every pair of these cool looking frames bought, one pair of  eye glasses will go to someone who needs them.

 3. Anything Apple, iPad, iPhone, iPod, idon’t care what it is, if he doesn’t have one he probably wants one.  The cool thing is that for no additional charge Apple will laser engrave a personal message onto the back of whichever one you choose.

4. The world traveler and photographer will love the photography book Steve McCurry: The Unguarded Moment 

 

 

 

5. Something fun like:

Math Symbol Cufflinks

 

 

 

 

A Cool Tie

 

 

 

 

 

or  The bottle Opener (for that engraved iPhone you got him)

 

Of course all dads love the homemade gifts and cards from the kids, so these suggestions are in addition to those! Any other great gift ideas for Father’s Day? I’d love to hear more.
