(Because another “World’s Best Dad” mug isn’t fooling anyone.)
We combed the shelves, rode the gondolas, and did the gift-hunting leg-work so you don’t have to. Whether Dad’s a whisky-swilling raconteur or a mountain-bike maniac, this list packs peak-approved treasures he’ll brag about well into hockey season. Scroll to the category that screams “Yep, that’s my old man,” or stack a few for a gift bundle worthy of legend.
1. For the Cultured Connoisseur
The guy who treats the coffee table like a private gallery—and expects you to browse it, not set a drink on it.
He has opinions on everything from Merlot legs to Merino wool counts, so skip the gift-card cop-out and hand him something he can flaunt. These show-stopping volumes double as décor—perfect for après-ski chatter or rainy-day gawking.
-
Stuff Every Wine Snob Should Know – Pocket-sized wisdom so he can flex tannin trivia at the next BBQ.
-
Mercedes-Benz: The Grand Cabrios – Top-down history in glossy pages; even smells like success.
-
The Impossible Collection of Golf – A drool-worthy tour of the greatest courses on earth (Whistler’s fairways included, naturally).
-
The Joy of Mixology – Cocktail scripture that’ll turn his “random splash of whatever” into something worthy of a bar tab.
Pair it with: A bow and the promise he can hog the sofa for an afternoon read. Bonus points if you bring him a dram while he flips pages.
2. For the Home-Bar Hero
Shakes a drink like he means it and names every ice-cube shape.
Après starts at home, and Dad’s ready to graduate from the souvenir pint glass. With pro-grade gear and a flame that never sputters out, his Negronis will finally taste as sharp as his banter
-
C&E Boston Shaker – Stainless Steel – No leaks, no gimmicks, just that satisfying metallic “clink” serious bartenders crave.
-
USB Lighter Co. Motli Light – Olive Green – Flameless, rechargeable, and cooler than the Zippo he lost in ’03. Perfect for candles, cigars, or patio mood-lighting.
Serving suggestion: Wrap these with The Joy of Mixology above, then politely insist on quality-control sampling.
Heads-up! Use code GLOW15 for 15% off any of these gifts (and everything else in store) all June long. Your wallet just did a happy dance. 🎉
3. For the Well-Groomed Gentleman
Smells like cedar, closes deals like Don Draper, still rocks flannel on Fridays.
Mountain air is great, but a refined fragrance routine keeps him fresh when he trades the trail for the boardroom. Black Amber leans woodsy, Bourbon Vanilla whispers “campfire nightcap,” and the shaving set spares his chin the sandpaper treatment.
-
Mistral Black Amber Cologne (100 mL) – Woodsy warmth that lasts longer than his lift-line stories.
-
Mistral Black Amber Shave Cream – Rich lather, zero razor burn.
-
Black Amber Body Wash & Lotion – Because bar soap is for camp trips only.
-
Mistral Post-Shave Balm – Bourbon Vanilla – Calms the skin, hints at happy hour.
Mountain-man tip: These notes play nice with campfire smoke and après-ski bourbon alike. He’ll smell as good on Monday morning as he did roasting mallows Sunday night.
4. For the Game-Night Grandmaster
Turns “friendly” competition into a full-blown tournament—every time.
Rainy-day cabin sessions, backyard bragging rights, or just keeping the kids off screens—game gear is Dad’s secret weapon. The craftsmanship here? Boardroom-level classy, chalet-level chill.
-
Purling London Dartboard Frame – Art-gallery vibes for the rec-room wall; no pub-style plaid in sight.
-
Ridley’s Wooden Solitaire – Quiet strategy when he’s “just resting his eyes.”
-
Ridley’s Chess & Checkers – Two classics, zero plastic—built to outlive his trash talk.
Bonus round: Loser buys the pizza. House rules.
5. For the Weekend Adventurer
Thinks “rest day” is a rumour.
Sun-up scrambles or twilight trail rides—he’s packing the cooler by dawn. Give him gear that fuels his wanderlust and nods to your shared Canadian playground.
-
Awesome Maps – Mountain Bike Map – Trail to-dos from Whistler to Moab, printed in waterproof glory—foldable, frameable, brag-able.
-
Friday Sock Co. Merino Hiking Socks – Mountains – Blister-proof comfort plus trail-head style points; Merino keeps the stink in check.
Pack-it advice: Roll the map into his daypack, slide the socks on top, and expect sudden Saturday-morning departures.
Mid-trail savings alert! Don’t forget—code GLOW15 knocks 15 % off these adventure picks (and everything else) for the whole month of June. Your bank account thanks you; Dad will too. 🚵♂️
6. For the Tech-Savvy Dad on the Move
Has more devices than pockets—we’ve solved half that problem.
Between the daily commute (read: coffee run) and weekend getaways, his phone battery cries for mercy. These MagSafe chargers deliver leather-wrapped luxury without adding bulk to your luggage.
-
MAG-2 Leather Essentials Wireless Charger – Saddle – Luxe landing pad for desks, nightstands, and chalet-side tables.
-
MAG-1 Classics Magnetic Wireless Charger – Saddle – Same saddle-tan swagger, pocket-friendly format for plane trays and patio dinners.
Charge-anywhere flex: The tan leather ages better than Dad’s jokes.
7. For the Sock-Game Legend
Believes great feats start with great feet.
Socks are the Father’s Day cliché—until you hand him pairs that roast him, inspire him, or show off his inner grizzly. Quick wins for the gift-giver, lifetime wins for the laundry rotation.
-
Blue Q Men’s Socks – “Dad Joke" - Pun-fuelled, eye-roll-guaranteed.
-
Friday Sock Co. Grizzly Bear & Salmon – As Canadian as maple syrup on a mountain peak.
-
Blue Q Sneaker Socks – “My Own Stunts” – For dads who treat the grocery aisle like an action film.
Stocking-stuffer energy—except it’s June, so call it “golf-bag stuffer.”
