SUPs, souped-up bikes, sunglasses, and other things your dad will love
ny of us owe our passion for adventure and the outdoors to our fathers. This Happy Fathers Day Gifts Delivery Online, what better way to celebrate dad's role in stoking that fire than to fuel his own? The following curated gifts—everything from wooden sunglasses and inflatable SUPs to a minimalist's fly-fishing kit and an electric motorcycle—will do just that.
Motoped Cruzer
I’m not exactly a handy guy. Though I compulsively read Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, Robert M. Pirsig’s 1974 existential juggernaut about working through life’s philosophical con-undrums while tending to the ailments of an old bike, my fascination never translated into practical knowledge. I can’t even change the oil, let alone replace a carburetor. But the mere sight of an engine triggers some primal urge to pick up a wrench and tinker with it.
That’s rarely a good idea, unless we’re talking about the Motoped Cruzer. Designed to replicate classic motorcycles from the early 20th century, the Cruzer combines a mountain-bike frame with a 49cc engine and adds retro details like wood fenders and a leather saddle. The best part: you can assemble it yourself in a long weekend. (You’ll need a Phillips screwdriver, a metric socket set, Allen wrenches, a hacksaw, and a small favor from a buddy with a steering-headset press.)
The results may look like something out of Mad Max, but this bike is built for beach missions. The Cruzer’s tank holds 1.3 gallons, enough to travel 150 miles, and it tops out at 24 miles per hour. Best of all, you don’t have to use the engine; you can rip up and down your favorite coastal roads looking for the perfect beach break, then cut the motor and pedal the bike right onto the sand.

Hydro Flask True Pint
No Father’s Day celebration is complete without a tall, cool frosty beverage, which is why the Hydro Flask True Pint is the perfect best fathers day gift for that thirsty man in your life.
This specially engineered, vacuum-insulated glass keeps a layer of air between the hand holding the glass and what's inside, helping ensure beer stays cold to the last drop. A stainless steel interior washes clean after use so that your beverage won't be affected by the taste of drinks past. Hydro Flask also engineered the lip of the True Pint to resemble the edge and feel of a traditional English pint glass.
The Hydro Flask True Pint, at less than $25, is so cheap that you should get two: one for your happy father day gifts and one for you to raise a glass together.

Lululemon MWB Jacket
Lululemon, the company that practically invented the woman's yoga pant, has since learned a thing or two about menswear. Take the MWB jacket, one of our favorite commuter, do-it-all jackets. Blending business-casual style with moisture-wicking, rain-shedding properties, it will help dad look good on the go without the need to change when he gets there.
It’s made out of Lululemon’s trademarked Warpstreame fabric, which means it's lightweight, durable, and water-resistant for rainy-day commutes. It even has zippered vents in the back that dump heat in a hurry.
The Lululemon MWB Jacket has its business in the front with three buttons, pockets, and a straight collar, which add a nice touch of style for either that Sunday brunch or client presentation.

Sea to Summit X-Set 31
If your dad is a guy who actually enjoys firing up a family meal after a long hike, check out Sea to Summit's five-piece stackable cooking set.
The X-Set 31 pots are built from hard-anodized aluminum bases that can withstand camp-stove flames as well as a good beating up and down the mountain, and a flexible silicone upper that saves space. Collapse them after the meal's finished and nest them with other X Series cookware.
The Sea to Summit X-Set 31 comes with a 2.8-liter pot, two bowls, and two mugs.

Miir Payette Commuter Bike
Believe it or not, your father was once a child. To spark his memories of those days, splurge on the Miir Payette.
This elegant singlespeed bike comes in four sizes, with a flip-flop hub which allows the rider the option of riding fixed or free. It also comes standard with 35-spoke wheels, 25mm tires, and a supple steel frame.
The best part? For every bike Miir sells, the company donates another to a person in need either in the U.S. or Africa.
$499, miir.com
Flowfold Traveler
One of the strongest wallets on the market, the Flowfold Traveler Wallet, also happens to be one of the lightest.
The trifold Traveler Wallet is made from the same material that goes into high-end racing sails: Kevlar fiber. Empty, it weighs 1.1 ounces, but it's roomy enough to hold the essentials with six pockets for credit cards, one transparent slot for ID, and a large pocket for cash. Need more space? It also has five additional pockets, three of which are hidden. It’s so light it floats—a double bonus for those who spend time a lot of time on the water.
With the Flowfold Traveler Wallet, dad's rear pocket will thank you.
