gift guide: father's day


Dads can be tough to shop for, especially if they don't need a new tie. Just remember, the most important part of Father's Day is letting him know how much you love him. Spending time together doing something he loves is usually the best gift, but some fun little presents won't hurt either. 

Read on for gifts sure to make any father's day:



Nothing says family fun like board games! Pour your pops a beer and spend some quality time together rolling dice or playing cards. Go the classy route with a personalized dominos set, or more family-friendly with classic board games. Some of my family's favorites (easy to learn and good for a wide range of ages) are Farkle and Skip-bo.


For the manly man, look no further than Man Crates for the manliest gifts out there. They've got gifts suitable for every macho interest: beer, baseball, poker, and yes, even zombies. Best of all, each gift comes wrapped in the most ridiculously manly way possible: sealed in a wooden crate and shipped with a crowbar for prying it open.


Is he the unofficial family photographer? The Photojojo  store is full of fun gifts for photographers, whether he uses a fancy DLSR or just takes snaps with his phone. He'll be able capture photos anywhere with a pocket-sized Gorillapod and banish red eye from his group photos with a flash bounce.


If the dad in your life could use a wardrobe update, check out Uniqlo's collaboration with Iolani, one of Hawaii's oldest Aloha shirt makers. Their modern takes on classic Hawaiian prints are sure to be cooler than his Tommy Bahama...


...or maybe dinosaur shirts are more his style? Guaranteed to make him the most popular dad at the playground.
