Father’s Day gifts can be tricky. As men we crave our father’s approval and like it or not that applies to gifts too. The right gift can be both sentimental and modern, without breaking the bank. It’s your chance to show your dad that you understand what he’s about while giving him something he might not otherwise buy for himself. So with that in mind, we’ve assembled a list of great gifts that won’t break the bank: all of them come in at under $100 but pack plenty of style.
1) London Undercover Umbrella ($95)
From London Undercover comes this beautifully handmade 2-Section Folded Umbrella with a natural Whangee [Bamboo] cane handle. Not only does the umbrella have style, but a strong 10-Rib frame is built to last. What’s nice about this gift is that it’s something any dad will be happy to have and will put to good use for many years. A classic Umbrella with modern convenience, you can shop the London Undercover site for the exact colorway that suits your old man.
2) Everyday Carry Brass Compass ($29.95)
Made in Minnesota, this 1″ diameter brass compass is the perfect accessory to your dad’s keychain. Practical, beautiful and symbolic; it’s a fantastic gift at an equally fantastic price. The man guided you into adulthood, now it’s time to return the favor. Shop Kauffman Mercantile for this and other great pieces.
