He's not a regular dad, he's a cool dad
It’s Fatherâs Day! Well, itâs Fatherâs Day soon â on the 20th of June, to be precise. What we really mean is that itâs time to start thinking about Fatherâs Day, and the various ways in which you can shower yours, or whoever it is that’s played a fatherly role in your life, with adoration and gifts. But also gratitude. But equally, and more importantly, GIFTS. Dads are notoriously hard to buy for, so we’ve gathered some luxury gift ideas for the occasion. Whether yours likes fancy food, appropriate vessels for steaming cups of tea or simply telling the time in the traditional way, there’s something for every dad here.
HAKKASAN X HADID caviar
HAKKASAN X HADID CAVIAR FATHER’S DAY FINISH-AT-HOME BOX, ÂŁ190
Well, we did say luxury gift ideas. For Fatherâs Day, Hakkasan has partnered with HADID Caviar â which is incidentally Bella and Gigiâs fatherâs caviar company â to offer a restaurant meal kit to rival all restaurant meal kits. It contains a selection of dim sum, Hakkasanâs signature Peking duck with pancakes, spicy prawns, hakka noodles, stir fried baby broccoli and chocolate and hibiscus soufflĂ©. Your dad wonât want to share it, but you will force him to â come hell or high water!
TIMEX X YMC
TIMEX X YMC 25TH ANNIVERSARY DIGITAL WATCH, ÂŁ79
What on earth do you buy a discerning dad who has an aversion to using his phone to tell the time for Fatherâs Day? A watch, obviously. And, because itâs unfussy yet fantastic, the Timex x YMC 25th Anniversary Digital Watch is our recommendation.
CASA CARTA
CASA CARTA MUG SET OF 2, ÂŁ40
Itâs strange that âmugâ is a slur. Whatâs so damning about such a useful piece of crockery? Still, if you want to buy your father a mug for Fatherâs Day itâs best to select a marvellous one â or two, as is the case with these by Casa Carta.
RILEY STUDIO
RILEY STUDIO ORGANIC COTTON WORKWEAR JACKET, ÂŁ295 AT KHOEO
Now, this may appear to be a womanâs jacket, but all Riley Studioâs sizing is gender neutral. Their clothes are for everyone, in other words â including your dad. We predict that this will become somewhat of an heirloom.
PORTOBELLO ROAD
PORTOBELLO ROAD SAVOURY GIN, ÂŁ35 AT THE DISTILLERY
Is gin a dad drink? Well, now it is. With notes of green olive and rosemary (among other things), Portobello Roadâs Savoury Gin is something that you wish to sample immediately. Therefore your father will be receiving it as a gift on Sunday and thatâs that.
ACNE STUDIOS
ACNE STUDIOS SMALL MESSENGER BAG, ÂŁ120
A thing to put things in! We all need one â even dads! And there is none better than this here by Acne Studios.
