Well if you haven't noticed by now, a Male Renaissance has been going full swing for the last few years now. They've become demanding and not complacent to just accept what the women in their lives propose. With a wider array of products & styles offered and more attention being paid to them in stores, men are gradually coming into their own in regards to voicing what they want. Of course, that doesn't make it any easier to decide what to snag for Dad this Father's Day, or does it? If there's more to offer then there's more to choose from. This means that instead of the time-honored 'dad' tie or three pack of dress socks, the options for Father's Day suddenly have more depth, range and the 'oh-so-overlooked' cool factor.
Who knows this all too well but the Accessories Council. Their top Father's Day picks are walks in updated classics, modern notions and those little accents that men have gravitated towards in order to differentiate their collective roars from the rest of the pride.
Clockwise from top left: J Fold full grain vegetable tanned Italian leather wallets are a classic need in an updated fashion, Dr. Scholl's Jason oxford are a nice way to keep him fashion forward and comfy as these are equipped with a velour suede upper, Memory fit foam® and cushy EVA midsole, Oliver Peoples Becket Sunglasses are a classic tortoise in the hands of a modern eyewear expert and Vasi Moda gives him just that little accent he needs to freshen up that somber sport coat with their colorful and exquisite silk pocket squares handcrafted in Como, Italy.
Clockwise from top left: Notes like citron, iced gin and lavender never smelled so fresh and clean with this new signature fragrance from Vince Camuto, Jack + Mulligan have very good-looking and simply cool dopp kits for the traveling man to fit all his grooming needs (I should know; I have one and love it) and the style impresarios at Esquire have shirts and ties on the pulse of style to suit the many kinds of men.
The modern man wear hats, but just make it cooler than his dad's. David & Young offers up some pretty sweet fedoras that serve as the perfect topper for that charismatic outfit or that charismatic guy as well as many handsome hats and scarves. Celebrities such as Kellan Lutz and Jay Alexander approve.
Clockwise from top left: Therapeutic can be stylish! Such is the case with Soxxy and their Nighthawk Compression Socks that create circulation and reduces selling and muscle soreness all while looking pretty cool with nice colors and designs and it's classic but make it his own with Auburn Jewelry customizable sterling silver cufflinks. Each piece is handcrafted to order. Be original for him or let him be the wild one with a gift certificate to customize his own pair.
No need to panic come June 15th. Peruse these unique selections and others offered by these charismatic brands and make the dads in your life even cooler than he may already be.
Father's Day is June 15, 2014!
