Dad-Approved Gifts That Deliver

Shopping for dads can be deceptively tricky. They’ll swear they don’t need anything, either because they keep things simple or they’re just not the type to splurge on themselves. Which is exactly why the right pick goes a long way. Think about how he spends his time—what he reaches for, what he wishes worked a little better. Whether it’s an relaxed sweatshirt, a handsome pocket knife, a classic beard trimmer or a smarter way to charge his devices, we’ve got you covered.
