Cool Dad Father's Day Gift Guide
20 items he’ll actually wear, use, and love
Shoutout to the dads in our lives, the ones we truly could not do it without.
I’ve compiled some of my favorite products, gadgets and clothes in to a gift guide for the cool dads. I wanted to keep things easy and casual, but still intentional.
Think everyday upgrades they’ll actually use.
Hair Styling: I love Jack Henry Co. Their hair clay gives a strong hold, great texture, and volume without feeling too sticky. My husband has thick curly hair and I think this would be perfect for him. Plus, they’re a small business founded by a dad with a clean mission, which I always love.
Hair Health: I think Nutrafol is such a unique gift option. Hear me out, hair and scalp health gets so easily neglected as we get older, especially for men. I love that this helps support healthy, strong hair so the cool dads can feel their best. The shampoo is 2-in-1 and the serum is easy to use after the shower and doesn’t leave the hair feeling greasy. It also great for cool grandpas too ;).
Fragrance: Also such a great gift. Scent is so tied to memory, and I’m loving these from Le Père, which actually means “father” in French. They’re unique, they feel special, and they’re even better when layered. I also love the discovery kit so they can mix and match and find their favorite.
Sneakers and sunglasses: These are items they wear every day, and the right accessories can instantly make an outfit feel more modern and cool. I especially love these Kenneth Cole sneakers and my husband is obsessed with his pair. They are a more elevated alternative to a Samba, still easy and casual, but with a slightly sharper silhouette. Black square frames like these create that effortlessly cool vibe.
Hats: It wouldn’t be a Father’s Day gift guide without a hat. My husband is a big hat guy, so I loved finding options that feel sporty and casual, but not like workout hats or sports team hats. I think my husband would love retro vibes of the BY Parra one and bonus points, its a cool dad three color combo of red, white and blue.
Men’s bags: Bags are big this year, and I think they’re such a great gift for any dad who commutes, goes to the gym, travels, or just ends up carrying everyone’s stuff. These feel modern and masculine without feeling like a purse. I know my husband needs this upgrade, he’s always grabbing his old backpack from, dare I say, post-college days? These instantly make the look feel more intentional.
I linked a bunch more on my ShopMy too: coffee gear (my husbands favorite, he’s coffee obsessed), accessories, clothing, screen free digital cameras (we have one and its so fun to use!) and a few more easy upgrades for the cool dads.
