Father’s Day Gift Ideas for the Special Dad Figure in Your Life

Father’s Day is Sunday, June 20 — honour the dad-like influences in your life with an array of goodies from housewares to accessories.

Father’s Day is approaching and we have a few (dozen) suggestions on what to gift the dads (and dad-like figures) on your list. The notion that fathers are the hardest people to shop for is sometimes a reality and with that in mind, a roundup of more than 40 items ranging from a North Face tent to a fancy Aarke water carbonation machine surely contains just the gift that says, “Thanks, pops.”

For the more fashion-forward father, trousers from Fear of God or a beaded David Yurman bracelet may do the trick, while Ten Garments Every Man Should Own — a new book by Pedro Mendes, one of Canada’s leading male style experts — will be great for anyone looking to upgrade their wardrobe game. A homebody will surely appreciate linen slippers from Muji paired with a new set of mugs that have been hand-finished in Portugal. But sometimes the simplest gifts are the most thoughtful — a handwritten note to the dude you look up to on a card from Canada’s Indigenous art collective IndigenArtsy will be something they cherish forever.

Whatever suits the father figure that’s dear to your heart, here are more than 40 Father’s Day gift options you can order online.
