He takes out the diaper pail, washes pump parts, and makes up his own words to every lullaby. He brings home weekend treats, drives to practice, and looks *so* good pushing a stroller. Dad is truly the best—and for that, he deserves something good this season. Here, we’re sharing a few of our favorite holiday gifts for him.
1. Solly Baby Wrap: A meaningful gift for dad: Baby snuggles and bonding in the Solly Wrap. This camel color is just the right neutral to go with anything he wears (and you too).
2. Patagonia Black Hole Duffel: Everyone needs a reliable, take-it-anywhere bag and this one checks all the boxes. It’s weather-proof, sturdy, and just the right size for anything for a day of adventure or a weekend away.
3. Musk Ox Flannel: Peanut butter and jelly. New babies and Solly Wraps. Some things are just meant for each other, and we could make a case for adding flannels and fatherhood to that list. This one is durable and thick, but still incredibly soft. Plus it’s handmade from 100% ethically sourced cotton in Portugal. He’ll love it.
4. Ridge Wallet: For the guy still sporting that old, bulky wallet from years ago. This sleek version of a traditional bifold is crafted from 100% full-grain leather and comes with handy add-ons like an air tag money clip and a titanium multi-tool bottle opener.
5. Jim Green Boots: Every guy needs a good pair of boots and these ones are handcrafted in South Africa to take on anything he has planned, from work to field trips with the kids and date nights with you.
6. Bucket Golf: For the dad who’s in his golf era but also in his dad era and can’t always leave the house for a round of 9 (or 18)—this portable golf game will be a sure favorite for backyard fun and gatherings with family and friends.
7. Stanley Thermos: This thermos = basically a rite of passage for any dad. As ready for adventure as he is, this Stanley classic holds 1.1 quarts-worth of his drink of choice and features an insulated lid that doubles as a cup for drinking.
8. Vuori Ponto Performance Crewneck: When you’re in the business of babies like we are, you take softness very seriously—and this sweatshirt is as soft as they come. Catch him wearing it for weekend diaper runs, work outs, and just lounging around the house.
9. Greys Wool Outdoor Slippers: House slippers that are cool and functional enough to work outside of the house, too? He’ll love them. This pair is handmade in Portugal with a temperature-regulating wool blend and a sturdy rubber sole.
10. Ooni Karu Multi-Fuel Pizza Oven: For memorable meals the whole family will love, this portable pizza oven creates traditional wood-fired pies wherever he takes it. Think: Friday nights in the backyard, summer camping trips, and weekend tournaments.
11. Darn Tough Socks: You might be thinking, “Socks for a gift? Really?” But these aren’t just any socks. They’re super comfortable, made in the USA, up-for-anything-on-dad’s-agenda socks with an unconditional lifetime guarantee.
12. Marshall Portable Speaker: For the dad who has a soundtrack for every activity, from cooking to mowing the lawn to doing tiny loads of laundry. This portable speaker looks just as good as it sounds.
