Gift Ideas for Father's Day
Goat of Bespoke Personalised Tailoring
This one is for the corporate dad, or dads who appreciate a tailored suit, shirt, trouser or waistcoat. Goat of Bespoke is well-known for dressing some of the best athletes and celebrities in South Africa. In addition, this is the kind of gift that will last for more than just a season.

Cheers to you, Dad!
Although it is difficult to find your dad the perfect gift, a special drink to celebrate him will always be a winner! For the dad who loves his tipple, we recommend the Amazing Grace, also known as ‘The Memory Maker’. The story behind this wine makes it the perfect Father’s Day gift, serving as proof that you cherish your dad.
For the traditional dads, why not gift him with a bottle from one of the oldest continuously operating whiskey distilleries in the United States, Buffalo Trace?
Cool Kicks for Dad

Each pair features a suede upper, with leather stripes and a leather heel mustache, as well as gold foil ‘Sporty & Rich’ branding. Of course, it also arrives packaged in a custom box.
