“Dads are most ordinary men turned by love into heroes, adventurers, storytellers, and singers of song”. Though the wise person who shared this thought remains unknown, truer words could not have been spoken.

This Father’s Day, we celebrate dads, tatas, fun uncles, stepdads, grandpas, brothers and all the father-figures in between, whose unique traits, style, advice and unwavering support shape us in different ways and contribute to the people we become.

This Father’s Day, Woolworths has every kind of gift for every kind of dad.

  1. Fashion forward father figure: Show Dad just how dashing he can be in Woolies’ range of trendy knitwear and long-sleeved golfers. And top the look off with a comfy-chic Herringbone Scarf. Don’t believe the myth – dads can never have too many pairs of socks, especially with winter in full swing. Spoil him with a few new pairs, or some new Swag boxers or trunks – because you know he won’t buy those for himself. For the dad who loves time outdoors, make sure he’s ready for the frosty season with a range of shirts, jackets, rib beanies and puffer jackets, which contain recycled polyester, are oh so cosy, and are wind and water resistant.
  1. Sleeping superheroes: Dad’s style doesn’t set with the sun. Spoil him with a super comfy PJ set to make him drift off, feeling loved and appreciated. And what better way to show your love for your dad than to match his PJs – the “Cool Dad” PJ set is available in adult, and ‘mini-me’ sizes for both kids and babies too. Woolies also has a wide selection of gowns and slippers to make sure he is all snug ‘n cosy for the long winter evenings ahead.
  1. The entertainer dad: If you have a dad who loves entertaining (and not only through his dad jokes), Woolworths has a range of high-end braai aids and utensils on offer to suit all tastes. Make a few solid additions to his collection with a Marinating Tray, Stainless Steel Braai Light with Magnetic Base, Braai Gloves, Stainless Steel Skewers, or Rechargeable Electric Fire Lighter. The Braai-Apron Gift set is the perfect all-in-one spoil for the braai-dad, and the utensil holder can even be used as an apron. He’d probably also like to treat his buds to a glass or two and show off his fully stocked bar area. The Aarke Carbonator (sparkling water maker) in black polished steel, the Pressed Cut Whiskey Glasses, Glass Carafe and Ice Bucket are just what he needs to impress the guys, coupled with a selection of the finest from WCellar’s wine and spirits range, like Spier Private Collection Chenin Blanc, Hennessy VS Cognac, or Jameson Select Reserve Whisky.
  1. Coffee connoisseur: For the dad who loves his morning brew, surprise him with something from Woolies’ range of premium coffee utensils and appliances – like a Double Wall Stainless Steel Plunger in a classy shade of black, a Stainless-Steel Travel Flask or a Fluted Bistro Cappuccino Mug. And for the fun dad, a Father’s Day novelty mug never gets old. It’s not enough to provide only the vessel, of course. Make his mornings with Woolworths’ superior selection of coffee beans and teas. Choose from a rich assortment which includes the likes of Italian Beans, Mocha Java Beans and a wide range of teas.
  1. Self-care and sweet treats: Because nobody can pour from an empty cup, encourage Dad to take some time for himself, and indulge in some self-care. The WBeauty Mens’ range includes soaps, nourishing body cream, exfoliating shower gel and an oil control face wash. There’s also the Longmarket Barber Aftershave and Longmarket Hair Wax. All products are made from responsibly sourced Ingredients, are locally produced, and approved by a toxicologist All products are made from responsibly sourced Ingredients, are locally produced, and approved by a toxicologist. Treat his sweet tooth to some of his Woolies faves, like Chuckles Malted Puffs, Chuckles Shortcake and Chuckles Peanuts. Boxed chocolates and confectionary are always a win, and as far as melt-in-your mouth biscuits go, Woolworths always has you covered. Or if savoury is more his thing, add to his snack stash with assorted nuts, chips, biltong and droewors, seasoned to every taste.

Wrap it all up in a Woolies gift bag and let him know how important he is to you!
