Your BRIGHT Father's Day Gift Guide

Fitness Gear, Made in America, Books, and More

It’s almost Father’s Day (June 16!), BRIGHT readers! Here are some gift ideas to celebrate the dads in your life, especially the ones who don’t fit the standard golfer or fisher Hallmark card.

Fitness Gear

XX XY Athletics

Something from the only athletic company that supports women in sports is the perfect gift for Girl Dads. Check out their Girl Dad hats and t-shirts, as well athletic gear like socks, workout shirts, and fleece quarter-zips.

Bowflex SelectTech 552 Adjustable Dumbbells

This is a great set of dumbbells for beginners and serious athletes. Me and my boyfriend are both able to use them and I like that you can make a small adjustment, like 2.5 pounds, so you can gradually use heavier or lighter weights. There are also plenty of free video workouts available on YouTube.

Made in America Gifts

Bachan's Variety Pack Japanese Barbecue Sauce
These are great marinades and finishing sauces with a Japanese twist that are produced in northern California. We’re currently experimenting with the new Sweet Honey flavor and love it.

Lasko Fans
Lasko Fans have plants in Texas, Tennessee, and Pennsylvania. It should be noted that some parts for some of the models come from overseas, but all are assembled in the USA. This model that includes a remote and nighttime setting is perfect for the dad who always has an eye on the thermostat.
