Article content Father's Day is your chance to show your dad just how much he means to you — and also the perfect excuse to upgrade his style with a gift that's both thoughtful and chic. Article content Article content Whether he's a fashion-forward gent or more of a low-key legend, Rebecca Tay rounds up five gifts to suit every type of dad: pieces that will give his everyday routine a stylish edge. From small but punchy splurges to meaningful tokens with major charm, this year, make him feel celebrated, appreciated, and effortlessly cool. Article content Article content Sure, an outdoor barbecue may be a slightly cliché Father's Day gift, but for multiple reasons. First of all, if he needs one, there's no better time to get one (as in, early in the summer and also for the occasion). Then, of course, it's something that everyone gets to enjoy. Sure, Dad gets to show off his grill skills, but everyone in his inner circle tends to reap the rewards: yummy burgers, steaks, plus borrowing rights, too. Article content OUI PICKLEBALL SET Article content New tennis racquet, designer golf tees, a personalized soccer jersey: if your dad's a sports junkie, chances are, you've gifted him plenty of accessories and equipment over the years. But if you haven't played a game of pickleball with him, or he's always up for trying something new, this stylish set is a great starter kit for a game that's fun and easy to learn, whether he's ultracompetitive or just in it for the laughs. Article content Article content Article content For dads that almost always have their laptop in tow, this navy fox head tote by Parisian brand Maison Kitsuné is a perfect option if his bag could do with an upgrade. It's sophisticated enough to wear to work with chinos or even suit trousers, but not as out of place as a leather briefcase or bag if you're out for dinner or weekend brunch. Article content Known for its evocative names and scents that ring true to these names, D.S. & Durga's candles make great gifts for the house-proud dad who also has an appreciation for cool, contemporary brands. Concrete After Lightning will remind city slicker dads of the smell of a sizzling pavement after a downpour: a reminder of welcome showers in the muggy, humid heat of summer.

Originally launched in 1957, the Railmaster was designed for railway staff, with anti-magnetic properties for scientists, engineers and anyone else who worked around rail lines (the two other watches in the 'Professional Line' included the Speedmaster, for race car drivers, and the Seamaster, for ocean divers). Now relaunched with a stainless steel bracelet, it's a classic for the ages — a gift for true watch connoisseurs. Omega, | $7,400
