Does anyone else feel like dads (men in general) are some of the hardest people to shop for?? We know how busy being a mom can be, so we rounded up some of our favorite fathers day gift ideas from our fellow small shop owners. 

1. Matching Kortni Jeane Swimsuits

They might not always admit it, but dads love matching with their minis. Kortni Jeane has some of the cutest matching swimsuits. So your guy can match with his son or daughter, or both! (and you might as well buy yourself a matching swimmer while you're at it). Shop here. Photos by @lexbuff and @life.of.a.sister

2. Sackcloth + Ashes Adventure Blankets

These blankets are the perfect accessory for any outdoor outing. Sustainably made in Italy with comfort and durability in mind. Woven from a recycled, dye free, chemical free, water free, wool blend that is certifiably eco-friendly, cruelty-free and good for the planet. This is a purchase that you can feel good about. Plus, for every blanket purchased, one is donated to a homeless shelter. Shop here. Photos by @samkolder and @signaphoto.

3. Thread Wallets

For dads the slimmer the wallet, the better. That's why we love thread wallets. Made of tight-knit elastic, they are designed to keep your cards and cash safe and secure. Shop here. Photo by @ethanjones.co

4. Dazi Skinny Ties

When you buy the dad in your life one of these ties, it's a gift for the both of you. It's a gift for him, because he will look good, and a gift for you... because he will look good. With a ton of different styles and quick shipping, they have a tie for any guy. Shop here. Photos by @cru.photo and @amani.styles

5. Suburban Riot Tees

These t-shirts and sweatshirts are made of some of the softest material we have ever felt. Our favorites are the "ask your mom" and "rad dad" crewneck sweatshirts. Shop here.

7. Album Surfboards

For the surf dad, these boards are the coolest. They are one-of-a-kind, innovative surfboards, handmade by surfers in the USA. Shop here.

8. Arvo Watches

Arvo is a minimalist watchband with a ton of great styles. Their mission is to do be good + do good, and they have donated to over 100 different organizations. Shop here.

9. Taft Shoes

In a world of poorly made shoes, TAFT products are built to last. Every pair is hand-cut and Blake-stitched using vegetable-tanned leathers from top European tanneries and mills. There is no way your guy wont love these. Shop here.
