1. Father’s Day gift for the active dad who loves sports
Is dad the outdoorsy type? If going for a run or cycling in parks is the perfect day for dad, then look no further than a sports-inspired Father’s Day gift! New running shoes are always a good idea – the running pros and sports physiotherapists always recommend styles from Under Armour, Asics and Nike.
Is dad a major stats geek? Get him a piece of wearable tech that’ll make him really happy! We’ve found some wearable health devices that have sports tech reviewers and health experts raving. How about a fancy Fitbit Charge 6? It lets you see your heart rate in real-time when you connect it to your favourite compatible exercise machines, has 40+ exercise modes- including strength training and kayaking, and comes with built-in GPS with many other features. Or how about Garmin’s Vivoactive 6? It’s a GPS smartwatch that monitors your health 24/7, including stress, sleep and more. Pretty cool! You can also consider the Xiaomi Watch S1 Active. It contains 117 fitness modes and 200+ watch faces with many other features.
2. Father’s Day gift for the dad who likes gadgets and to read in peace
Time to update the E-Reader! Look no further than the Rakuten Kobo, which comes highly recommended for travelling (the perfect size for a holiday!), has a backlit screen and adjusts for nighttime reading, so it’s easier on the eyes. There are also some fab accessories to go with it, including attractive cases made of recycled ocean plastic!
3. Father’s Day gift for the dad who likes (and has) to look his best
Whether it’s showing up to the office or attending work calls from home, dad’s gotta look clean and good for work! Get dad some pre-shave, safety razors, aftershave and more from local hip barbershops like The Panic Room or Sultans of Shave that are known for their attention to detail and premium products. And if dad’s game enough for someone at home to cut his hair, you can even grab a pair of clippers, too!
If you are scouting for something more stylish and plush, ‘What He Wants’ has the ultimate grooming set any dad would go gaga over. Think Gentlemen’s Tonic pre-shave oil, traditional shaving cream, aftershave balm, a Mayfair shaving set and a badger brush. Besides all this loot, the nifty grooming set comes in a nifty presentation box for the ultimate gifting surprise.
4. Father’s Day gift for the stylish and fashionable dad
Got a stylish dad on your hands? Shop for a new pair of socks, a new tie or a new pair of sunglasses to up his fashion game this Father’s Day. Our pick of the lot? Shades from local eyewear company, The Rocket Eyewear Company – it has sunglasses and eyeglasses with raised “Asian” fit and “European” fit, which makes it suitable for all dads! Plus, it’s super stylish and chic – we might just cop a pair for ourselves, too.
And if dad loves a good hat, take a peek at Hat of Cain’s Panama Hat collection. These handcrafted hats add flair to an outfit and are perfect for the hot weather here in Singapore… and the next beach holiday! But if all else fails, grab dad a pair of spiffy socks from the folks at Talking Toes. You can never go wrong with a good pair of socks! How about a brand new watch to refresh his wardrobe?
5. Father’s Day gift for the dad who loves to accessorise
Now that you have the outfit sorted, how about snagging the finishing elements to complete dad’s look? We can’t get enough of this nifty Dante II, Black Skeleton timepiece with the interior gold-tone movement that ought to have him ticking the streets with style. Finish off with a snazzy Polo Ralph Lauren belt from FarFetch to give dad that strapping good luck. And with that, he’s good to go!
6. Father’s Day gift for the dad who carries that nifty bag
dads might be content with just a wallet in their pockets, but with these snazzy bags on offer, don’t be surprised to see him flip like a coin. We can’t get enough of the Delton leather bag from Trendhim for its rustic creased finish. We can totally picture dad painting the town red with his schmancy new pressie! Looking to gift wrap something smaller in size? The chic urban style Sling Mini from Bellroy is a great choice to maintain clean lines and a sophisticated look for dad. Psst…the bag is unisex by design. Our advice? Hide it away from all prying eyes at home when not in use. Otherwise, you know what might happen!
7. Father’s Day gift for the sentimental dad
We love a good ol’ DIY Father’s Day gift or card, but why not take it up a notch with a photo book or mug featuring dad and the fam? Photobook Singapore has some great options (that are super affordable too!) and we like the ease of ordering multiples for all the different dads in the family – including Grandpa, uncles and more!
8. Father’s Day gift for the dad who’s tech-obsessed
Since the start of the pandemic, we’ve all been relying on technology a lot more than usual. Some dads, however, were long on the tech bandwagon before the rest of us and have been obsessed with the latest gadgets that can make home living futuristic. Sound familiar? If so, this Father’s Day, you’ll want to grab dad a set of Tile Pro trackers in case he loses his keys, wallet and other essentials around the house. Or, make dad’s life a little simpler with Belkin’s three-in-one wireless charging pad – it’ll charge his Airpods, iPhone and Apple Watch from one central location. We’re also loving the cool Canon SELPHY CP1500 photo printer which turns memories into tangible keepsakes for the whole fam! Mums, you’ll love this one too.
9. Father’s Day gift for the music fan dad
If dad is all about the music, how about a nice speaker with a good bass output and crisp sound while listening to his favourite hits? Check out Bang & Olufsen’s Beolit 17 for a portable and home option. Or, for a style statement, how about these transparent speakers from Ante? Made from tempered glass and aluminium, they are pretty fancy and even better – sustainable. The speakers are forever upgradable – you can swap out the existing system with new components. If dad likes to keep music time to himself, a snazzy pair of Sony WH-1000XM6 headphones will make him giddy with excitement – these are the latest from Sony’s 1000X series.
10. Father’s Day gift for the gamer dad
Is dad as big of a gamer as the kids are? If so, we’d suggest a console, but chances are, dad has probably shelled out for a PS5 or pre-ordered the Nintendo Switch 2. If so, you’ll want to grab the newest games for him to while his time away. Maybe Dad isn’t much of an online gamer but prefers board games instead. To that, we say, check out our article for a list of fun board games to entertain the whole family!
11. Father’s Day gift for the cool-at-the-pool dad
To those lucky folks who have a pool at home or a bathtub large enough: we are envious. Still, it doesn’t mean we can’t dress up at home like it’s pool day! Plus, living in tropical Singapore means year-round sunshine, so there’s always a good reason to get dad a pair of board shorts. Check out August Society, Tom & Teddy or Mantorai for some snazzy swimwear that uses high-quality, quick-drying fabrics. With so many colourful options to pick from, dad will be the coolest in the room (and the pool) for Father’s Day 2025.
12. Father’s Day gift for the foodie dad
Is your dad a typical foodie and won’t stop raving about his famous dish? Or how about the hottest new recipe that he can’t wait to try out? Perhaps he’s the master baker of the household, with an arsenal of baked goods waiting to be devoured? Well, good news for foodie dads: he’ll love Le Creuset‘s cast-iron skillet, Christopher Tan’s The Way of Kueh, a collection of recipes of Singapore’s traditional desserts, or father of five and world-renowed chef Jamie Oliver’s latest cookbook, Simple One-Pan Wonders could be a great source of inspiration to dad. Yum – we can’t wait for a feast.
If dad prefers to sit back and relax (he totally deserves it!), we suggest hitting up one of these restaurants for a hearty Father’s Day meal that he will love.
13. Father’s Day gift for the travel-mad dad
If your dad is all about travel, then help him plan new ones for the future! The PAIFIEVD WiFi Photo Frame is praised for its easy connectivity and display quality – great for sharing travel memories. It’s easy peasy to upload images from your phone, and it can take centre stage as it’s standing and wall mountable. Plus, it’s got loads of fancy features that we think dad will love – like playlists and ambient light sensors, fancy! Or, if you think dad might appreciate some inspo for future hols, how about this travel book by intrepid explorer Anthony Bourdain? And if dad really needs a hol but doesn’t have time to go overseas, don’t forget about the whole host of staycays on your doorstep in Singapore!
14. Father’s Day gift for the dad who likes a well-stocked bar
There’s nothing like having a chilled bevvy at the end of a long day… especially after a day of daddy daycare over the school hols! We say bring the bar home and let dad unwind and relax with a tipple in hand from EC Proof. Stock up on tools of the trade, glassware or dad’s favourite spirits. You can’t go wrong with this.
Psst, if dad loves a good craft beer, have your pick of four- and six-packs from local breweries like Off Day Beer, Trouble Brewing, Lion Brewery, or Rye & Pint. And what better way to cheer the old man than with a custom gift box from Thirsty? It’s fair to say there’s plenty to choose from. It’ll defo show him that you love him beer-y much. Cheers!
15. Father’s Day gift for the dad who loves a good BBQ
If dad is the type who loves to stand at the grill to dish out all your sizzling faves (no complaints there), then a set of snazzy BBQ tools is sure to make his day. The BBQ Grill Store is your place to hit up for all the professional-grade grilling accessories he will need. From multifunctional skewers to heat-resistant BBQ gloves and even heavy-duty Rotisserie kits, the options are endless. Did we mention The BBQ Grill store also has some pretty handy grilling tips and recipes that dad might love to try out too? We’ve also heard that the staff know their stuff and are happy to help find the perfect grill for dad, even if you’re a grilling newbie!
16. Father’s Day gift for the dad who loves camping with the fam
If camping with the fam excites dad, we know just the pressies he will love to pack for the next camping trip. Decathlon, Campers’ Corner or Outdoor Life are a camper’s one-stop-shop for all camping gear and essentials and are highly recommended by seasoned campers. And the stores stock some pretty cool tools and accessories that could come in handy, from flat-fold silicon storage ware to 2-bedroom camping tents. Our advice? Look through all the gear already at home before hitting the stores to add to the camping stash.
17. Father’s Day gift for the dad who likes to sleep in
Is dad’s ideal day sleeping in? Here’s that perfect Father’s Day gift to surprise him with for his ultimate day of rest. A soft and luxurious bamboo fibre eye mask by Heveya accompanied with essential oils to ease dad into blissful sleep, and a hypoallergenic bamboo pillow case too. Whoever wants to count sheep with these snazzy ops at hand?
18. Father’s Day gift for the Picasso dad
Does dad have the constant itch in his fingers to doodle something now and then? We know just the pressie that he will love for Father’s Day. The Draw with Dad! The Two-Person Doodle Book is a great book for a dad-kiddo team to express their creativity together. Based on 100 creative prompts dad and his tiny sidekick can doodle away a composition together to create a memorable masterpiece.
19. Father’s Day gift for the coffee-holic dad
With an over-flowing calendar and tons to do each day, this pressie will have dad energetic in a jiffy to hit the day with a war footing. The Wacaco Minipresso GR Espresso Coffee Maker is not only nifty in design but is lightweight, portable and has a 70 ml water capacity. Best part? dad can get his kick from any coffee bean/roast of his choice! Did we mention it can even grind coffee beans? So if it’s a long wait for the kiddos after soccer practice or a long wait in a traffic jam, dad can reboot with a shot of energy like never before!
Happy Father’s Day, folks!
