Nordstrom fashion gifts for Father’s Day
You might almost regret buying Dad these pants, because he’s going to be wearing them 24/7 until next Father’s Day, when you gift him a few additional colors. Relaxed in fit with a tapered leg cuff, the pants’ performance fabric is soft and stretchy, not to mention moisture-wicking and quick-drying. Boasting more than 3,700 positive reviews on the Vuori site, the cult-fave sweats are available in five colors and sizes small to XXL.
The ultimate dad shoe if we ever saw one, these slippers can go from inside to out, making them perfect for everything from walking the dog to running his weekly errand to Home Depot.
You really thought you could get through a Father's Day gift guide without seeing Crocs? These are still just as comfortable and so-ugly-they're-kinda-cool as they were a few years ago. From gardening to embarrassing you at Outback Steakhouse, he will wear these everywhere — whether you like it or not.
A classic for good reason; if he doesn't already have these then he definitely wants them.
Here’s a new concept: Shorts that can literally be worn all day, wherever the day takes Dad — even if that’s from the pool straight into date night. All while looking spiffy! That’s exactly what these beloved shorts from Faherty will do, given that they’re packed with the quick-drying functionality of a swimsuit but the tailored, flat-front design of a country club short. Available in seven colors and waist sizes 30 to 42, the shorts also have a zippered back pocket.
Yet another incredibly versatile, everywhere sandal, these have the benefit of being 100% waterproof. If he's a beach bum, he'll definitely love them.
Chances are high that the hoodie he already owns needs to be replaced, and there's no better one out there for the job than this ultra-soft Faherty one. A great layering piece, it's available in eight colors.
The baseball cap of yore has gotten a revamp thanks to Melin, and it’s better than ever. Featuring a moisture-wicking lining and a perforated exterior that allows for tons of ventilation, the A-Game is also lightweight, water-repellent and floatable.
A truly beloved watch at Nordstrom, this Fossil number is super clean, with a thin design, number-free face and light weight. It's a bargain at just $150.
On knows a thing or two about making a good running shoe, and never is that more evident than with the Cloudswift, which — you guessed it — will have Dad feeling like he’s walking, jogging and full-paced running on clouds. Designed to fit like a sock, the shoe has an external lacing cage that locks the foot into place and cushioning that delivers a ton of buoyancy. Even if Dad’s not a runner, these sneaks will be his go-to for errands and beyond.
Every dad needs a versatile sport coat in his closet, and this Nordstrom one is a great choice. It's made from sustainably sourced materials, and we love that this jacket can easily pair with jeans or slacks, a tee or a button-down, all while looking sophisticated and handsome.
Cotton T-shirts are so last year. Bolster Dad’s workout game with this performance tee from Vuori that’s stretchy, sweat-wicking and quick-drying. Athletic in cut (with less fabric than an old-school T-shirt), the Tradewind comes in five hues and sizes small to XXL.
Blow Dad’s mind this Father’s Day by saying buh-bye to old-school mesh-lined swimsuits and hello to Fair Harbor’s The Anchor Trunks, which feature supportive interior shorts that will never, ever chafe. Boasting more than 15,000 positive reviews on the Fair Harbor site, The Anchor Trunks have an athletic fit, an 8-inch inseam and a shell made solely from recycled water bottles. To date, the brand has recycled more than 27 million plastic bottles — now, that’s a feel-good gift!
Let’s face it: Dads love a pool slide. Whether he’s taking out the trash, headed to the gym or doing school drop-off, his new favorite is going to be this old-school Adidas option, which has a cushioned band, a contoured foot bed and more than 9,000 positive Nordstrom reviews.
Socks that show? No way! Elevate Dad’s ankle game with this set from Bombas, which are seam-free and have heel grips ensuring the socks will stay put. The best part is knowing that for every pair of socks sold, the brand donates another pair to someone in need.

Foodie dads will rejoice upon receiving a Dutch oven from?Le Creuset, which we named the best splurge Dutch oven.

It’s also super portable, thanks to folding legs.
