With Father’s Day just around the corner, let our gift guide inspire you with plenty of perfect presents to pamper the man in your life. You could get them what they really want, some peace and quiet, but where’s the fun in that? So, forget the usual socks, shower gel and aftershave combo because from the golf enthusiast to the GAA dad, we have the best gifts for them all!
For the GAA Dad:
Is he still talking about that one match back in 87’ when he scored two goals and got sent off for ‘barely touching the man’? You’re not allowed to chat during the game, but he can provide a running commentary from the sidelines at full volume? Don’t worry, we have the perfect gifts for the man who lives and breathes GAA!
Our County Venture Polo is a must-have for cheering on the beloved county team from the sidelines or behind the TV. This easy-to-wear classic is crafted from the finest Pima cotton, luxuriously smooth to touch and extra soft against the skin with a relaxed fit. Add an extra layer on top with the County Evolve Half-Zips. The perfect Father’s Day gift which every GAA fan should have in their wardrobe to keep them warm on those cold match days! With a high-neck collar and super soft cotton fleece material, this is a wardrobe essential for every GAA Dad.
Finally for the pièce de résistance of our GAA Dad Gift Guide, our timeless Retro Jersey Gift Box. Already beautifully parcelled in our O’Neills Gift Box, trigger some nostalgia to the ‘Good Ol’ Days.’ Rewind the years back and let him relive the GAA moments he’s been talking about your entire life. Designed to honour some of the greatest footballers, moments, and jerseys since the GAA’s inception, our Retro Jersey is sure to be a massive hit this Father’s Day.
For the Golf Dad:
Golf Dad: noun, A father who spends an astronomical amount of time in a well-kept field looking for a small, lost, white ball with a bag full of extremely expensive metal sticks. He calls it, ‘The ruination of a good walk’ and yet continues to go on that walk every Sunday. Often found scratching his head, muttering the phrase, ‘It was just a practice swing.’ He uses words like ‘Shank’ and ‘Slice,’ you don’t know what it means, but you still love him.
For the quick round after work, or before, and maybe even during, our Surge Polo Shirts are available in a range of classic colours, making them extremely versatile. From everyday office wear to the Club House, these polo shirts are engineered with moisture-wicking technology, keeping you cool and focused on the game. Designed for the Golf Course, the high stretch material offers flexibility for any Happy Gilmore swings as well as that all important, essential UV protection.
For the Gym Dad:
AKA the cool, hip dad who doesn’t seem to age. The fittest man you’ll ever know, he loves to win push up competitions against his son and intimidate his daughter's new boyfriend. Your professional jar opener who gives nightclub bouncer vibes, treat him to some new gym wear, sure to make him look even cooler than he already does!
Performance and design are at the very core of our Tempus range. The wide variety of colours and styles throughout the collection ensure that every man will find his new gym uniform. The T-Shirt, quarter-zip and shorts are the three key staples in the Tempus range, with each item seamlessly blending functionality with style. Crafted specifically for an active lifestyle, grab coffee with mates and then hit the gym without needing to switch outfits!
For the Proud to be Irish Dad:
‘What do you mean you don’t know what happened in 1169?’ What do they teach you at school these days???’ For our beloved Patriots who crack open the Irish whiskey every Christmas and recite the history of Ireland (his version). They are our cultural educators, our ‘I can’t really speak Irish but why would I let that stop me’ Irish speakers and our not so factual encyclopaedias. He sounds like the type of dad who would appreciate a 1916 Heritage Commemoration Jersey.
Celebrate our modern poets and bards this Father’s Day, with our beautiful heritage products. The perfect blend of patriotism and sports, the Premier Half-Zip and Premier Jersey evoke a sense of pride as well as nostalgic memories of sensational rugby and soccer moments throughout Irish sporting history. Warning! Many, many stories of Irish brilliance, both on and off the field, will be shared when wearing these items.
Hopefully with our Gift Guide, you have found the perfect gift for the perfect Dad. So, this Father’s Day, 21st June, don’t forget to spoil him!
