The Best Gifts For Dads That You Will Want Yourself
Highsnobiety’s Gift Shop has arrived, with fresh pieces added weekly. Browse our Gift Guides, and shop the whole collection here.
Ever since chunky New Balance and ASICS sneakers have become some of the most hyped releases, dads appear to be on a quest to prove their fashion prowess. And one fallout of this is that my wish list for gifts reads suspiciously like that of my old man's.
While I haven't gone as far as to ask for a new pair of garden sheers, recent trends have required that I'm jotting down waterproof hiking sneakers, practical cargo pants, fuzzy cardigans, and even jorts on the list of things I want to find on the other side of some wrapping paper.
One pro of this is that shopping for Pops is made a bit easier, as much of his style has gone full circle in the increasingly quick trend cycle. Below, we have gathered a good gift for dad, whether they be a hiking dad, an arty dad, or a bougie dad, and there are a few you might want to keep for yourself.
Scroll down for the best gifts for dads.
