This Father’s Day, show a little extra love to the man that raised you with a thoughtful gift that marries the fun of fashion with the practicality of purpose. Hold off on the grand gestures (unless they’re of the edible kind) or purchases of minimal use; from De’Longhi’s do-it-all Dedica Duo coffee machine to the latest designs from golf it-brand Malbon, we’ve rounded up a list of sensible luxuries to make his June 15th the very best it can be.
Malbon Riva Nylon Jacket
Unfortunately for us in Hong Kong, the G.A.P. x Malbon collaboration is a little too far out of reach. But not to worry, as this gorgeous nylon jacket from the brand’s Summer 2025 collection guarantees Dad will be the most stylish man on the green. The Riva arrives in either white or cypress green, with a versatile two-way zip, adjustable drawcord waistband, welt front pockets, and open venting to ensure comfort throughout varying climate conditions. Thoughtful sartorial details like raglan sleeves and ribbed jacquard collar lining also elevate this jacket beyond mere sportswear. Like most Malbon garments, the Riva jacket is a piece that is designed to look good in all wardrobes, whether a golfer’s or not.

De’Longhi Dedica Duo
Dads love to dish out life advice with ageless idioms like “The early bird catches the worm” or “There’s plenty of fish in the sea” (a popular post-breakup line). Next time he offers an unsolicited “wake up and smell the coffee”, show him you’re listening with the perfect brew courtesy of De’Longhi’s brand new Dedica Duo. Measuring a mere 15 centimeters wide and available in three colourways, the stylish Dedica Duo earns its name from its unique ability to serve up both hot and cold coffee. It arrives with a super user-friendly touch interface that offers Dad the choice between a single espresso, double espresso, or an instant cold brew as nuanced in flavour as its traditionally steeped counterpart. The Dedice Duo machine also comes with a range of accessories like a milk frothing jug and a ‘My LatteArt milk steaming wand’ so that Dad can unleash his inner barista.

Maison Margiela Sprinters
Over in the menswear space, the low-profile sneaker is summer’s hottest shoe. There are now a myriad options from your favourite designers and brands to choose from, including Maison Margiela. Their new Sprinters sneakers are blowing up the internet for their resemblance to the legendary handmade Nike ‘Moon Shoe’ intended for the 1972 Olympic trials, which sold for almost half a million US dollars at a Sotheby’s auction in 2019. The Sprinters do indeed draw inspiration from mid-century track and field running shoes that Dad may be familiar with, but are crafted from a comfy blend of durable cotton drill, hairy suede, and calfskin, then treated and distressed in true Margiela fashion. The spiked rubber track soles also come embossed with the brand’s signature numeric code iconography for a distinct footprint any fashion enthusiast will recognise.

Garmin Forerunner® 265
Whether he’s been Mr. Marathon for years, or just learning to relish the runner’s high, a Garmin watch is just the tool he needs to go the distance. The Forerunner® 265 is equipped with a stunning AMOLED touch screen display and an overwhelming amount of tools to help him plan, prepare, and perform to the best of his abilities. Highlights he’ll love include a customisable ‘Morning Report’ with an overview of his sleep, training outlook, HRV status and the weather to kickstart each day; ‘Garmin Coach’ training plans for not just running, but cycling and strength training; Body Battery™ monitoring to track your energy levels throughout the day; and a preloaded lineup of free HIIT, yoga and pilates workouts to switch up how he sweats. Of course, it also comes packed with the non-fitness-related tech you’d expect from most smart watches nowadays—live location tracking, contactless pay, music, paired mobile phone notifications and more.

Polo Ralph Lauren Polo Bear Silk Repp Tie
Ties are one of those accessories that always make it onto gift guides for men. Oftentimes we think about corporate-friendly varieties that are diagonally striped or discreetly textured in hopes that it will be suitable for almost any occasion, work-related or not. But it’s high time we put those stringent concerns to the side and opt for something that truly excites. Polo Ralph Lauren brings the fun to a navy tie made with silk repp cloth specially developed by a centuries-old English mill. The brand’s iconic Polo Bear is artfully embroidered across the fabric, oozing country club cool in a tennis-themed cable knit sweater and brown Wayfarer sunnies.
