A Father’s Day Gift Guide for the Design-Savvy Dad
Ditch the polka dot tie and gift card he’ll forget to use. This year, celebrate Father’s Day with a stylish and useful gift for Dad from our Gift Guide.
Self Caring
Some dads might need a little extra help when it comes to self-care, and grooming for that matter. Le Labo’s high-quality Beard Oil tames even the roughest beard or moustache, leaving it smooth and moisturized. From $80, at Le Labo.
Massage Therapy
Whether he’s stressed from work, saw his favourite sports team lose, or simply can’t beat his bad posture, the Theragun Mini 2.0 will provide some much-needed relief. Portable and powerful, this robotic massage tool can relieve aches and pain at any place and time, as well as connect to the Therabody app for a personalized routine with workouts. $249, at Indigo.
Chef’s Kiss
First published nearly 100 years ago, The Joy of Cooking is a kitchen staple. Blind embossed in a rich leather hard cover and with painted edges, this book makes a great gift for the dad who loves to cook and those who are just beginning. $190, at Queen Books.
Smart Serve
The Deluxe Gunmetal Bar Tools Set is a guaranteed way to make Dad feel a little extra cool this Father’s Day. Made with an 18/8 stainless steel base and gunmetal finish, this set exudes a bachelor-pad style fit for any home bar. $150, at Cocktail Emporium.
Artful Audio
There are a lot of Bluetooth speakers to choose from nowadays. Many look relatively the same, but Swedish brand Defunc is doing speakers differently—having recently launched its customizable multi-room Wi-Fi speaker designed to seamlessly blend into any space. Whether you choose a wall-hung option or a standing one, this stylish sound system is a perfect Father’s Day 2023 gift for the audiophile dad. From $200, at Defunc.
En Vogue
Make your father the most stylish guy in the office with a Stepan North/South Envelope Bag by Serapian. In addition to conveniently carrying all his office and travel essentials, this handcrafted leather and canvas crossbody caters to a chic and sleek aesthetic. $875, at Holt Renfrew.
Earth Day
This Canadian cannabis accessories brand specializes in stylish ceramic objects geared toward design-savvy cannabis enthusiasts. For the dad who partakes, Oak and Earth Creations’ Mahuta bong is a memorable gift he can enjoy as a display piece as much as a functional tool. Approx. $170, at Oak and Earth Creations.
Grill Master
A great set of BBQ tools for Dad means a better-tasting dinner for you. Joking aside, the stainless steel Black-Handled 4-Piece Barbecue Tool Set is designed to endure the endless burgers and steaks assumed at any Father’s Day celebration. This clean and classic set will warm up the grill as much as it does your pap’s heart. $72, at Crate & Barrel.
Green Thumb
Made of rich Oaxacan clay, this whimsical Red Clay Planter is a creative and quirky addition to any plant dad’s collection of greenery. Suitable for indoor or outdoor use, its a timely Father’s Day gift Dad can use right away. $95, at Obakki.
