As we step into sunny June, Father’s Day approaches quickly. Many of us are left in the dark on how to shop for men. It’s easy to grab a girl a giftset, like a nail polish kit or bath bomb set. However, men aren’t very transparent and often don’t tell us what they want. Sports tickets? Optional, but expensive and need to be bought ahead of time. A new watch? Breaking the bank, again. That flimsy coupon book you made in second grade? Maybe that will be out last resort. With such little guidance and a minimal amount of hints, we never know what to buy for dad. Thankfully, some trendier gifts are hitting the shelves this season, and we don’t think he’ll will be disappointed.
York Athletics, The Henry Mid Cloud Mesh: If you want to splurge on a gift this year, these shoes are the way to go. These are designed differently than your typical pair of Nikes or Adidas. Also, these gym shoes are lighter than air. They’re also extremely comfortable and trendy. If you want to spoil dad this year, these shoes could be his for $120.
TICKR FIT Heart Rate Armband: If it isn’t obvious enough, heart rate monitors are everywhere. The craze only expands as these monitors are being released in new models by all types of brands. The unique feature about this one in specific is that it’s also a Bluetooth. This all-in-one gift will leave dad amazed. The monitor is only $79, too!
Echo Dot (2nd Generation): Smart speaker with Alexa: If you’re gift shopping for your husband this Father’s Day, this is the only other woman you won’t mind him talking to. The Alexa is device that simplifies everything; phone calls, playing music, setting alarms, listening to audiobooks, and much more. She’s one of a kind and you’ll definitely get your money’s use out of her, too. Order one from Amazon for only $39.99!
Tommy Hilfiger Men’s Leo Briefcase: Backpacks, wallets, briefcases, all things that we never want to come to terms with needing a new one. The handles could be hanging by a thread and we’re still in denial that it’s time to let go and find a replacement. This Tommy Hilfiger briefcase could replace dad’s current one. The price is $101.99, marked down from $128. If ordered on Macy’s, use the code EVENT to receive an extra 30% off at checkout.
