Father’s Day is almost upon us, and while we think that just one designated day is not enough to show the love we have for the most special man in our lives, it’s also true that Father’s Day provides a perfect opportunity to shower daddy dearest with gifts and pamper him silly on this special occasion. But before you zero in on a gifting and dining option, check out our round-up:


To gift:


TUMI Alpha Bravo collection



Available in different colours to suit your dad’s personal style statement, the iconic Alpha Bravo collection has long been any jetsetter’s favourite accessory. Featuring luminescent reflective silver that pops to life under bright lights, the Alpha Bravo is a versatile collection that easily transitions between your dad’s days at the office, nights out in town and everywhere in between.


Armand de Brignac flute glass set



In time for Father’s Day, Armand de Brignac has released a new limited-edition gift set, including a bottle of Armand de Brignac Brut Gold (750ml), alongside two Armand de Brignac crystal champagne flute glasses.
