Give Him Local :: 7 Gift Ideas for Father’s Day
There are things I love and things I don’t love about Father’s Day. I love that we celebrate my husband and the wonderful father he is to our children. I hate buying gifts. It’s not that he doesn’t deserve one …. he deserves them all, but I get major analysis paralysis when it comes to making gifting decisions.
So, if you’re anything like me and need someone to make a decision for you, here’s your gift guide for the dad / papa / grandpa / father-figures in your life while also supporting your local shops.
Gift cards, beard oil, t-shirt…this barber shop is in the center of Lafayette and are experts at gentleman’s pampering.
Gift card, lighters, or a selection of cigars … this is a great option for the man who likes to treat himself to a celebratory cigar once in a while.
Locally-inspired tees, drinkware, hats, flags, and more. With two locations in Downtown and River Ranch, this is a great one-stop-shop for apparel your dad will love to wear.
For the fashion-forward-father, Genterie offers a great selection of carefully curated apparel and gifts. My personal favorites are this unique retro tee perfect for Ragin’ Cajun game days, green swim short, and gorgeous leather money clip wallet.
A locally owned and designed shop, Motier is my favorite place to buy my husband elevated basics for his wardrobe. I’m reaching for this luxe tee with script logo, this sleek windbreaker pullover, and this two-toned hat to elevate casual looks. The best part is you can order online or pop in their store.
For the dad who enjoys a nice bottle of bourbon or a 6-pack of cold beer … Marcello’s has it. Stop in and let the experts guide you to the right bottle(s).
If you have a sneaker-loving man in your family like I do, Sneaker Politics is where you should go. They carry an array of sizes and styles of unique footwear that is sure to make dad feel simply stylish. For my husband, who likes a low-profile sneaker, I’m reaching for these Nike Chevys.
