For thrill-seekers
For the adrenaline junkie dad who craves action-packed activities, nothing beats the excitement of skydiving or zip-lining.Take his love for thrills to new heights with an unforgettable adventure that will get his heart pumping and his spirits soaring. Look for reputable skydiving centers or zip-lining courses in your area and book an exhilarating experience. Make sure he’s outfitted in breathable clothing that allows for ease of movement and maximum comfort during these high-flying acts—like our Microtech Chill Cooling crew tee.
For fishing fanatics
Is your dad a water warrior who prefers to spend his time out on the open sea? Set sail on a deep-sea fishing expedition or hop into kayaks for some angling action. Reel in the fun on a chartered fishing boat, or discover tranquil lakes and serene streams and try your hand at fly fishing. It’s the perfect opportunity to relax and catch up while he hooks a big one. And if you really want to impress him, take his catch of the day home and treat him to a home cooked meal. Don't forget to equip dad with essential fishing gear. Make sure he’s dressed for success on the sea in waterproof pieces (our suggestion: these stylish surf shorts that’ll work for boat days or boardwalk hangs).
For nature enthusiasts
For dads who appreciate the wonders of nature, consider treating him to a wildlife safari or a scenic photo hike. Seek out nature reserves or beautifully-curated gardens renowned for their flora and fauna. Find picturesque trails or national parks with diverse wildlife or stunning landscapes. If your dad is the unofficial family photographer, he’ll love embarking on one of these picture-perfect pursuits. Provide him with comfortable gear to ensure he can get the proper shots, no sweat—like Free Country's moisture-wicking, quick-dry and wind-resistant Adventure Vest. For bonus points, print out a photo he took and have it framed!
For camping aficionados
If your dad loves spending quality time under the stars, family camping or backpacking trips are ideal choices. Choose scenic campgrounds or plan a backcountry trek where you can bond over campfire stories and breathtaking vistas. For dads who yearn to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life, pick a remote wilderness location to disconnect, unwind in nature and bask in this uninterrupted time together. For chilly evenings around the fire (don’t forget the s’mores!) and hikes when the temps drop—keep him warm with our Rec Jacket, a breathable and versatile classic-fit fleece.
