Omorpho Weighted Vest ($299): This micro loaded weight vest adds 10lbs of weight and increases the intensity of any workout, while allowing for easy movement during any training activity.
Raicilla ($73): This is the lesser known cousin of tequila and mezcal, but it’s slowly emerged as my go-to spirit for making cocktails. The history of raicilla dates back centuries and its distribution and production have a fun backstory, but what makes it stand apart from Tequila and Mezcal is the distillation process and unique flavor profile created from similar agave plants. If you haven’t tried it, this bottle is a great place to start.
ASICS Quantum 360 Sneakers ($240): Whether you’re a dad, someone who loves trail running, or somewhere in between, these reimagined Gel Quantam Asics, designed in collaboration with London-based Kiko Kostadinov, will provide a stylish upgrade to your daily regimen. In addition to their comfort and training pedigree, the unique colorways set them apart from basic Asics.
Lodge Blackrock Skillet ($60): Everyone should own a cast iron skillet. They are the workhorse of the kitchen and can do pretty much anything, but people are often intimidated by their upkeep or seasoning requirements. This version from Lodge eliminates almost all of those concerns at a very reasonable price.
Autocamp (price varies based on location and length of stay): Take your dad camping (or glamping) at one of the Autocamp locations. This experience sets up modern airstream trailers and luxury tents across some of the most popular national parks and locations, including Yosemite, the Catskills, Joshua Tree, and Zion. Book a trip or get a gift card and give him the gift of a buddies’ weekend.
Nitecore EDC Flashlight ($89.95): Everyone needs a good flashlight and this rechargeable, ultraslim version can fit in your pocket, while putting out over 3000 lumens, which is enough to light up a dark trail in the middle of a forest. It also has strobe functionality, if you want to throw an impromptu dance party.
Ooni Volt 12 Electric Oven ($999): We own the wood pellet Ooni and love it, but if you’re looking for a unit that can be used both indoors and outside, without needing an external fuel source, this newest model might be the perfect option. This all-electric version bakes pizzas in 90-seconds and can sit right on your counter. If you’ve been on the fence about getting a pizza oven, this brand can’t be beat and their newest innovation might be their best yet.
Carhartt Insulated Lunch Cooler ($25): Keep your case of [insert preferred drink here] cold, or fill this with your preferred gourmet lunch and let it chill for hours. Carhartt is a standard in both workwear and professional gear, but you don’t need to do hard labor to enjoy the benefits of this cooler.
