For Father’s Day this year I imagine Chris will be doing exactly what his heart wants to be doing… grilling. He wouldn’t have it any other way and I would never deprive him of that. Along with that, we’ll be spending the day as a family, playing games and taking it easy. Of course we’ll also be dreaming of how we’ll get to spend Father’s Day NEXT year when our backyard is fully finished. It’s going to be magic, but until then we’re enjoying the moment.

I recruited Chris to help me put together the ultimate Father’s Day gift guide for the men in your life and this might be our best one yet. One thing you might not know about Chris is he is a master product curator. He keeps nothing that doesn’t meet his quality expectations or that he doesn’t absolutely love. In other words, this is a gift guide you can trust.

Father’s Day Gift Guide

1. Layrite Matte Cream $20 Chris has hunted for the perfect pomade for years and this is the one that has satisfied everything he wants a pomade to be. It’s a matte cream, medium hold, and washes clean without any waxy residue.
2. Pit Boss 700 Classic Pellet Grill $396 One of Chris’s favorite pellet grill brands at a really great price.
3. Hemlock Straw Hat $42 The hat that comes with Chris on every beach trip and vacation!
4. Chubbies Shorts $69 Chris is extremely brand loyal and when he finds what he likes, he goes all in, just like he has with Chubbies. These shorts are apparently worth all the hype.
5. OluKai Woven Sneakers $165 These shoes are so unique and classic at the same time. Pretty sure Chris wore these to dinner almost every night in St. Lucia!
6. Greeting Card $6 The cutest Father’s Day Card there is.

9. Cryo Ball $24 Now this, you put in the freezer and enjoy a cold therapy deep tissue massage. Sounds invigorating.

12. Leather Belt $35 You can’t ever have too many leather belts right?
13. Project Smoke $22 Chris says this is basically a bible for grillers and I would never doubt that statement.
