Knowing what to get your partner, friend, sibling – or anyone else under the ‘loved one’ umbrella – who’s a new parent for Father’s Day is never an easy decision.
Do you get them something that’ll help them level up their dad game like a schmicko baby carrier – or is that too predictable? What about a ‘world’s best dad’ mug – too tacky? Or an electric razor? Useful but c’mon…
From whisky tasting kits to loungewear to other objects of leisure, there’s something classic yet also a bit left-of-centre out there to celebrate every new dad on Father’s Day.
