Father’s Day is this Sunday and I thought it might be fun to roundup some ideas of what real dads are asking for, instead of the usual, what I think and/or want him to ask for. I had this funny realization that if I read a post written by a man about what to get his wife for Mother’s Day it would make me roll my eyes (engraved bowling ball, Homer??). Shockingly, as it turns out the ideas of what real dudes want aren’t nearly as fashionable or cute, but I think we need to all come to terms with that. Here are a few ideas rounded up from some dad friends around the country…
I’m obsessed with these duffle bags from Filson
A National Park blanket from Pendleton

Baby bike seat (although our daughter Esther can’t use it for another 9 months)

Hi! I think a watch is always a great idea. It would seem that why would a man need a watch if almost everyone has a smartphone in which you can always see the time? In addition, you can find out the time in the modern world at every corner: in the car, in the subway, in front of the Bank entrance, etc. However, the demand for the best men’s watches https://www.h2hubwatches.com/collections/maserati it doesn’t fall. Men still make their choice in the direction of wrist watches, but the functionality of modern chronometers has already expanded significantly.
look at that little precious bundle! have a great Father’s day weekend 🙂
Great list! And that photo is priceless!!
