NYC
For the father who needs some closet space...
MORE ideas
...for Dads who dress a tad more traditionally---
Bowties...LOVE THEM-five in all (plus okay, five new ties too-Mister Nice Tie) -by NBA ALL-STAR and Olympic Gold Medal Winner...Chris Bosh-2nd collab with Armstrong+Wilson ...inspired by nature's vibrant colors seen on travels abroad...all under $100
For WorkWear Needs-Outdoor Jackets/Pants by Walls Outdoor Goods and related brand 10X -a bump up from dad's in their 20s staple-Carhartt...and because even if they don't hunt, camo is ALWAYS cool.
There's something neat about licensed Mossy Oak Country or Realtree Xtra prints...that look rather nifty out of the typical nature surroundings. Give dad a gift- and maybe Bambi a break too- with the above pictured rugged work wear that doubles as lifestyle attire...impressively made and a great value too.
For the man who likes to eat well and be served accordingly -aka a Gourmet Dad-send him away:
Let pater familia experience someone else doing the cooking-at the 4 seasons worthy, glam, not precious- indoor- outdoor -Stowe Mountain Lodge Resort-specifically-by a new "Best of New England"farm to table cuisine dining options-led by a new culinary team including individuals with serious creative, modern cooking creds...the new Exec Chef Ronnie Sanchez---who toiled as the Executive Chef -The Westin Resort in Snowmass/Aspen & Wildwood Snowmass, the Ko’a Kea Hotel & Resort in Kauai, HI, and another current Destination Hotel property, Inn and Spa at Loretto in Santa Fe, New Mexico... plus three-star Michelin training at El Bulli in Roses, Spain.
AND Jeremy Martin the new Chef de Cuisine. who was the former chef at the St. Regis, Deer Valley, the Stein Eriksen Lodge and the Waldorf Astoria in Park City, Utah. Quite the duo.
For the Francophile sporty father---
...and what a really nice gift to chip in with siblings.. send him to France to splurge his taste buds and enjoy the mountains in the Les Trois Valleés-PARADISKI areas...all four season destinations - that has the advantages of a) being in France-so of course the food/wine is fabulous with-the most mountain Michelin stars awarded - in one area-in the world (18 for 10 gastronomic restaurants)...or with a dinner option in the world's largest Vanoise Express aerial tram (up to 40 people-380 meters above the ground-crazy!) b) great way to take advantage of the strong USA dollar... c) surrounded by Les Alpes -provides plenty of beautiful outdoor scenery and active ways to work off the calories consumed including biking, hiking, skiing/snowboarding in the the world's largest interconnected ski area-on/off piste...Courchevel. Orelle, Méribel, Val Thorens, La Tania, La Tania-Courchevel Le Praz, Les Menuire/Saint Martin de Belleville, and Brides-Les-Bains, and individual resorts like Les Arcs/Peisey-Vallandry and La Plagne.
Not complicated=getting there-accessible by European high speed trains that work well-and on time- from several TGV-SNCF stations, the Eurostar and Thalys trains, and in the winter -with exclusive bus shuttle service from airports and the regional Transavia airline - for easy transport to and fro'---and by car.
Bonus for the skiing/snowboard/telemark dad---there's even a reciprocal agreement in partnership with Vail Resorts' resorts-anyone who purchases a season pass in either of the two ski areas-gets free 5 ski days in other ski areas.
For the travel farther Father:
For far off jaunts that require clothes that'll stand up to rigors of travel-or for sophisticated city goers with security needs...the ideal trousers wardrobe staple- deftly met-by a pair from Clothing Arts Pick Pocket Proof Pants™-including tailored business travel versions of---or practical Pˆcubed® Convertible Travel Pants multi-tasking zip-off to shorts styles...genius and patented hidden zip pockets galore (up to 17!!!)...drape well and made from durable, naturally wrinkle free, cotton strength-like but super clean easy/quick dry materials like Nature-Like™ Nylon fabric that look fresh straight off a plane or a mountain trail.
Seriously-for the dad that travels light -he'll LOVE needing only one pair of pants to pack or wear onboard- from this Brooklyn based company.
