Father’s Day is just one week away, so you’d better get moving to pick out that special gift for the compassionate dad in your life. Wouldn’t it be perfect if that gift came from a company which is as ethical as your dad is?
Here is a list of our suggestions…
1. Father’s Day Gift Set From Allison’s Gourmet Chocolate
This $38 gift set is the perfect combination of “sweet & salty” since it is comprised of Salted MacDaddy Bark, Mini Pecan Brownies, and Salted Chocolate Peanut Brittle. You’d better hurry and order it right away from Allison’s website because several days are needed for shipping.
2. Threads For Thought Clothing
We love this Tri-Blend Short Sleeve V Neck Tee ($24), Chevron Tank ($29.50), and Cargo Swim Trunk ($69.50) which can be purchased on Threads For Thoughts website.
3. Phoenix Bag From Matt & Nat
This laptop carrier is the perfect gift for the ethical dad in your life. It is made with Matt & Nat’s signature “dwell” black pebble fabrication, and is available in black and grey for $165 on Matt & Nat’s website.
4. National Bi-Fold Wallet From The Vegan Collection
Perhaps dad’s wallet is old and worn; or maybe, he’s still in the process of transitioning his wardrobe and accessories to those which are cruelty-free. In either case, this smart and practical National Bi-Fold Wallet From The Vegan Collection sells for $24 on Moo Shoes’ website.
5. Calculator Belt From Truth Belts
This handsome belt is offered in black and brown, and is a lovely gift that any man would love. It can be purchased for $55 on Moo Shoes’ website.
6. Mastermind Tan Shoes From The Brave Gentleman
How about some sharp-looking and ethical shoes for that dad in your life? We perused The Brave Gentleman, a wonderful online shop, and these Mastermind Shoes in Tan ($250) caught our eyes.
7. Breezer Uptown 8 Bicycle
This retro style bicycle would be perfect for those urban dads who love to bike to work or run errands. We really love this cool bike by Breezer. You can get more details on Breezer Bikes’ website. MSRP $849
8. Rok Form V3 Mountable i Phone Case and V3 Bicycle Phone Mount
The Rok Form V3 mountable i Phone case and bike mount are really sleek and will keep your phone in place without worries. It can be used with any bike that accepts 1-1/8 inch thread-less steer tubes. The V3 iPhone case ($39) and the V3 bicycle phone mount ($69) can be purchased on Rok Form’s website.
9. Adrenaline Sneaker From Brooks
This twelfth iteration of Brooks most popular shoe is all about taking what’s great and making it even better. Adrenaline junkies can expect the same revered fit and feel with added upgrades like more mesh for breathability, a friction-resistance heel, and a crash pad that encompasses more strides. They can be purchased on Moo Shoes website for $69.95.
10. Le Labo’s Santal 33 Fragrance
In case you didn’t know, Le Labo fragrances are custom made in one of their special “laboratories.” Not only do they smell divine, but they are also vegan and cruelty-free. We think Le Labo’s Santal 33, a spicy musky scent containing Australian sandalwood, would be perfect. The bottles come in different sizes; however, we suggest the 50 ml (1.7 fl.oz.) bottle for $145. If you are not lucky enough to live near a Le Labo “lab,” you can order any of their products on Le Labo’s website with a personalized label (up to 23 characters) if you desire.

11. Weber Q 200 Portable Gas Grill
What dad wouldn’t want to tailgate with a fabulous portable grill? Wouldn’t it be awesome for grilling those portobello mushrooms, marinated tofu kabobs, corns-on-the cob, and veggie burgers? This Weber grill is perfect and so easy to clean because it is made with porcelain-enameled cast iron grates. It can be purchased for $199 at Target, Walmart and Home Depot, or on Amazon.
12. Vegan Grilling Cookbooks
How perfect are these vegan grilling cookbooks? Both are available on Amazon…
13. BIG JAMBOX by Jawbone Wireless Bluetooth Speaker
BIG JAMBOX turns any phone, tablet or mobile device into a portable, hi-fi sound system. Now you can play music, movies and games and fill even the largest spaces with sound. Precision-tuned drivers and dual passive bass radiators work in concert to produce amazingly clear, full audio at any volume. Stream all your digital media from any Bluetooth® device and control BIG JAMBOX from across the room, or use the buttons on top to pause, play and skip. With a built-in rechargeable battery that lasts up to 15 hours, you can party all day or night, anywhere.
You can now purchase the BIG JAMBOX, which comes in some really cool colors, on Jawbone’s website for $249.99 plus free shipping.
14. Eco-Friendly Lingerie
Check out this Eco-Friendly V Neck Cami made from 93% Bamboo and 7% Spandex. How does this qualify as a Father’s Day gift? Use your imagination. Let’s put it another way. If you choose this gift, you will not need to buy the Weber grill to heat things up. However, the BIG JAMBOX and Allison’s Gourmet Chocolates might work very well with this choice. This cami can be purchased for $40.99 on the website of the Sexy Lingerie Shop.
If the above suggestions don’t “float your boat,” may we suggest a nice breakfast in bed. Scrambled Tofu, Vegan Banana Bread or any one of our Vegan Recipes For A Mother’s Day Brunch would work. Our husbands love Alicia’s Crispy Peanut Butter Treats With Chocolate Chips, so we will probably be making some batches of those. As a last resort, you could do what any true Vegan American Princess would do…make the reservations!
Hope we gave you some good suggestions!
