Let’s hear it for the dads!
Celebrated annually in the U.S. on the third Sunday in June, Father’s Day recognizes all of the incredible paternal figures in our lives: the teachers of lessons, the givers of advice, the supporters of dreams, and the proud tellers of corny jokes (that we secretly can’t get enough of).
Though many mothers are rightfully spoiled with breakfast in bed and trips to the spa on their holiday, fathers often wind up collecting a wide variety of neckties and “World’s Greatest Dad” mugs. We’re not knocking either gift — it’s the thought that counts, after all — but we did compile our own list of ideas to kick it up a notch, with products that will ensure he’s eating well, looking good, and having fun all year round.

For the Home
This bad boy has six functions, so he can air fry, air broil, roast, bake, reheat, and dehydrate — all with one kitchen appliance. It’s a must-have for serving delicious meals with up to 75% less fat than those made with traditional frying methods.

Got a meat and seafood lover in your life? Finding quality cuts from humanely-raised animals can be tricky — and expensive — at your local grocery store, but each ButcherBox delivers right to your door and comes out to less than $6 per meal. Plus, this special offer will add in a year’s worth of 100% grass-fed ground beef for free.

Another essential kitchen accessory, this defrosting tray allows you to thaw frozen food up to eight times faster than room temperature, without using electricity, running water, or taking up fridge space for a full day. It’s non-stick, easy to clean by hand, and can get you cooking in just 10-20 minutes.

What more heartfelt gift than his family’s beautiful faces smiling up at him from his desk? (Or his pet’s smiling face if he and his fur baby share a special bond.) With Aura digital frames, you don’t have to choose just one photo, or even a photo at all. The stylish pieces can store over 10,000 images and videos, uploaded by anyone who has access, so he can scroll through an array of cherished memories.

So many wonderful memories are made around a campfire: It’s where we tell ghost stories, roast marshmallows, and take in the stars on cool summer nights. Get him a Solo Stove, and he can easily bring the (smokeless) campfire vibes wherever he goes — from a neighbor’s back porch to the middle of nowhere, USA.
Apparel

Lululemon is famous for its yoga clothes and sustainable practices, but did you know the brand is in the golf apparel game as well? Shop everything from socks and hats to shorts, polos, and even dress pants, designed to be worn on the move for those trips to the green mid-workday.

A versatile, lightweight hoodie should be an essential element of any wardrobe. We love this one from Free Fly because it’s made from bamboo for an ultra-breathable, “buttery soft” feel and comes in 15 different colors and patterns.

We adore a classic boot, and Blundstone’s Chelseas are particularly appealing: They’re unisex, and leather-lined, and they feature an ergonomically engineered toe spring as well as increased shock protection in the heel-strike zones. They’re also oil- and acid-resistant, and can withstand heat up to 284 degrees Fahrenheit.
Self-Care
