Well, since New Year’s is this weekend, it seems appropriate to give 2010 a proper send off with a bang. And if Dad likes to party, then this belt for holding drinks will come in handy. The neat thing about this is it doesn’t have to be all alcoholic beverages in the slots. Dad can put enough alcohol to get himself to the point where he is pleasantly numb, but the rest can be soda to make sure he doesn’t regret his consumption the next day.

You heard me right. Apparently, some Dads like to go for a bike ride in the middle of winter, and to protect your hands, these gloves are available. The palms are padded and the thumb and forefinger are reinforced for protection. But my question: Who likes to ride a bike during the winter?

Denim jeans are pretty tough, but they’re not indestructible. If Dad is more of a rugged outdoorsman, he may want to get a pair of these pants. These are perfect for some of the more rigorous outdoor activities like downhill skiing. My dad loves to ski so this is right up his alley.

If there’s one thing I learned growing up in the Midwest, dry, warm feet go a long toward fighting of shivering and sickness. I can’t explain, but Dad always said to make sure I had comfortable, heavy socks to wear when walking to school during the winter.

Here’s a question for you: If you were stranded in the middle of the tundran wilderness, with no rescues within a day of your location, and the only thing between you and a hypothermic death is this wool hat, would you wear it? I would wear this hat even if my life didn’t depend on it. I think it’s a really neat hat.

These are a great item for formal occasions. If your father is a soccer fan, these cufflinks have a small drawing of a soccer field, complete with goal areas. The beautiful green is a unique departure from the stereotypical gold or silver cuff links most men wear.

We’re continuing goofy gift week here on this blog, and this one has to be one of the better ones I’ve seen. Take the most popular sci-fi franchise ever and put a play on words with one of its iconic characters and you have a t-shirt that is the envy of the entire galaxy.

When it comes to wallets, I like leather wallets as opposed to any other fabric. And if it folds more than twice, I pass. That’s why I love this wallet. Black leather goes with every type of clothing and the fact that it’s made from leather and folds in half makes it a winner for me.

This may not be a rolex, but Dad should really enjooy this mens watch. Made from stainless steel, it has both a traditional clock face as well as a digital read face. So, you can tell the time no matter which way you read it. Dad can get to his next meeting on time and in style.

A golf shirt should do two things. First it should keep one cool & dry. These shirts are all moisture-wicking- so you’ll stay drier and cooler. Second, the shirt must be stylish and not make you look like you lost a bet. These shirts look great.
