Father’s Day Ft. Wayne STYLE
Father’s Day Gift Ideas Galore at Christopher James!
Ready for June 17? If you think this is a random date in June, you’d better keep reading. We at Christopher James are here to make your life easier for Father’s Day gift giving and have put together a short list of suggestions for you below. If you’re still on the fence after reading this, buy a gift card or rely on the guys here at the store, who can expertly help you choose the right gift for the dad in your life (while you’re shopping, you can enjoy a cold one or even sip on a glass of wine. You can tell your dad you worked hard while shopping for his gift).
Ties
Have you given dad many ties in the past? It’s not overrated. At Christopher James, you can find uniquely designed ties in many colors, styles and designers. If you’re skeptical about the one-of-a-kind styles, go see for yourself. You’ll find paisley, geometric patterns, bold colors and everything else in between.
Shirts — Dress and/or Casual
Does dad need to loosen up? Get him a casual knit shirt to go with a pair of shorts for the golf course. Or get him a button-down shirt to wear untucked with jeans for a laidback look. A Robert James shirt will put a smile on dad’s face. The styles are whimsical and the colors are perfect for summer. If a spiffy new dress shirt is more his style, there’s plenty to choose from at Christopher James.
Shorts
Summer days are finally here, so make sure dad stays cool in a pair of new shorts. The guys at Christopher James can show you how to pair different shirts with shorts for a complete look.
Accessories
Socks
Dad always needs more socks! They’re a favorite gift in this reader’s household. Help him channel Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and get him a pair in an unexpected design that will look great with socks and dress shoes.
Skincare
Shaving tools, lotions and potions are also a sure win and probably something the dad in your life won’t readily buy himself.
Pocket Scarves
Pocket scarves for your dad’s suit jacket or sport coat might not be the first gift option to occur to you, but it’s a good one. Christopher James has scarves that will give your dad’s ensemble a cool pop of color.
Belts
Before you rule out a belt as a gift, consider a new leather belt in brown or black leather for your dad’s next outfit. They’re always necessary and no man should ever leave home without one on.
A Reliable Gift: A Christopher James Gift Card
Let’s say you’re uncertain whether Dad will go for a different-colored tie or a shirt style outside of his comfort zone. A sure-to-please gift for your special dad is a Christopher James gift card. He can spend it as he chooses the next time he needs to replenish his closet.
In honor of Father’s Day, we have a special offer of $50 off your $250 purchase Happy Father’s Day to all of our customers out there and we hope to see you soon!
