Father's Day Gift Guide

Let me guess. Father's Day is less than a week from now and you still don't have a gift? Fear not, AFI has got you covered! Dad's are tough. But we're going to make it reaaaaal easy for you.

Sign em up! A subscription is the gift that keeps on giving.
1. The Mantry is a food-of-the-month club for the dudes. It allows guys to discover anything from BBQ sauce crafted in the backwoods of Alabama, to award winning bison jerky from the hills of Montana. Each month your dad will receive a box full of an assortment of everything he needs to stock his pantry and serve a manly meal.

2. Monocle is a wicked magazine that brings hip and relevant editorial content into your home. It covers an array of "guy" topics, and is sure to excite your dad on delivery every month. Plus, a subscription to the magazine gives you access to the Monocle archive on Monocle.com


3. The Napoleon Apollo AS300K 3-in-1 Smoker. It's true, the name is a mouthful, but that's nothing compared to the mouth full of delicious, savoury, fall off the bone, baby back  ribs your dad is going to whip up with this monster. This smoker grill works for wet and dry smoking, and acts as a standalone grill. Get this for your dad and you will undoubtedly become his new favourite child.

4. Eames Black Ash Lounge Chair and Ottoman is the ultimate in quality and luxurious design - no one does it better than Eames. This chair has been on the market for nearly 60 years, and isn't going away any time soon. Say "Sayonara" to that eyesore La-Z-Boy. Trust me, your Mother will thank you.

5. This Office Organizer does it all. With smart compartments for pens, pencils, scissors, reading glasses,  iPhone, wallet, etc., your dad will be wondering where he kept all his stuff before this came along. Plus, it's made from hand-picked slabs of wood. wood=manly. done.


6. Manly Pillows. I moustache you a question... how adorable is this pillow?! This pillow, and many others like it on cafepress.ca, are a guaranteed way to bring some masculinity into your dad's space. Throw it on his couch in the office, or add some comfort to his man-cave. 

7. The Batman Logo Evolution Poster will bring your dad from geek to chic. Comic books aren't just for kids, y'know! This cool print is an excellent way to add some modern whimsy to a dry and drab room. 

8. Jazz Life. This coffee table book, brought to you by photographer William Claxton and musicologist Joachim Berendt, is an amazing collaboration and collection of photographs and recordings of legendary artists and unknown street musicians. Not only is the content amazing, but it will look incredibly cool in any room of your house. This means major points with both dad and mom.


I hope everyone has a wonderful Father's Day!
