Super Cool Fathers Day Gift Ideas
04 June 2011
Ties and wallets are so 1990s.
Get Dad a super cool gift this Fathers Day.
A Comfy Chair
Whether its for snoozing, the paper or just lazing around, every Dad needs his own comfy chair. Head to the new Timothy Oulton store for masculine sofas, chairs and accessories. If your Dad likes a touch of vintage, stop into Like that One to browse their restored vintage furniture. Here you are guaranteed to find something one-of-a-kind and oozing coolness.
Funky Ipad Cover
If your Dad is anything like ours, he has already secured himself an ipad... but like most blokes, he has yet to accessorize it. Help him out and buy him an ipad case. Check out the bright silcon ipad cases from Jonathan Adler, available on shopbop (delivered to your door in 3 days). Not only do they say cool with a capital C, they are so bright, he might not lose it!
Wheels
Much like puppies, every man loves wheels. If your Dad is looking for some new wheels, why not explore buying him a bike. We love the retro Vanguard bikes available at WorkShop. Browse the store for other great manly presents like must-have architecture, design, journals and vintage stationery.
Serious Wheels
If Dad likes wheels with more rubber, noise and speed, why not buy him the book:
Go Like Hell: Ford, Ferrari, and Their Battle for Speed and Glory at Le Mans (by A.J. Baime). This remarkable story is of how Henry Ford II concocted a scheme to reinvent the Ford company. They would enter the high-stakes world of European car racing, where an adventurous few threw safety and sanity to the wind. He would design, build, and race a car that could beat Ferrari at his own game at the most prestigious and brutal race in the world.
Manly Man Bag
Dad's will enter the 21st century with a rugged Decker messenger bag from Fossil. With their thick hide and lovely leathery smell, every Dad is going to love having one of these to swing over his shoulder as he heads out the door (hair toss optional).
Pixie Caffeine Fix
The new Pixie coffee machine from Nespresso is just the thing to start Dad's day right. We love the new ultra-compact size, the range of colours ... and the concept of decent coffee at our parents house... bet Mother will love this one too!
