Top 5 gift ideas for dad: The Remix Father’s Day gift guide

It’s Father’s Day this Sunday and if your dad is anything like most Kiwi blokes, then buying for him can be a bit of a nightmare. Even though your dad might say he doesn’t want anything, you have to get him something a little more meaningful than a Lotto ticket for all his awesomeness. Never fear! The annual Remix Father’s Day gift guide is below, so have a read of our top five present suggestions and head out on Saturday to grab dad something special. There are also a few freebies in there for you to get your hands on. Maybe buy dad a Lotto ticket as well… he’ll share the money with you if he wins.

1. The Penney Pompeii shirt from Gubb & Mackie

This utility shirt with two chest pockets in Italian cotton and mother-of-pearl buttons has shades of olive, mushroom and washed denim. Worn either buttoned-up or unbuttoned over a T-shirt, it’s the ultimate shirt for the weekend getaway. If your dad fancies himself as a stylish lad, then get him one of these to wear on the boat or when he’s manning the barbeque this summer. Visit here to buy.

3. The latest scent for men from Issey Miyake

Throw away dad’s cheap smellies and get him the latest from Issey Miyake, Nuit D’Issey.  Featuring crisp, zesty citrus notes with masculine bergamot and a trail of leather, spices and wood, Nuit D’Issey is made for the classic man. Zingy grapefruit with a hint of black pepper, followed by the sharp scent of dark wood and a dash of tonka bean, leaves a subtle and long lasting scent on the skin, taking you from an early dinner to the depths of a big night. The smoky and smooth scent of Nuit D’Issey will have you ready for just about anything the night throws at you. Available from selected Farmers, department and Life Pharmacy stores.

4. Some office pieces from kikki.k

Let know he’s your anchor with kikki.K’s stylish range of special gifts and greeting cards.

5. Rock this new watch from G-Shock

It’s fair to say G-Shock don’t really do anything half measure and the latest watch from the popular GA-100 Series is yet another big and bold G-Shock timepiece, complete with cool camouflage pattern face. The basic black is offset by the metallic camouflage pattern of the face, which is further accented by luxe gold detailing and of course boasting all the bells and whistles to make it a techy toy to treasure.
