The Most Stylish Outdoor Gear For Men
By Cassell Ferere originally published on Forbes.com
Father’s Day is fast approaching, and it will be tough to consider what fathers would love and enjoy as a gift of gratitude for their service. Get yourself geared for some outdoor activities and get them outside for fun activities or just soaking up daylight and getting in those steps. Give dad a nudge into a healthy lifestyle and destress from sitting in front of a screen all day.
Dads are cooped up long enough, avoiding the elements and resisting movement. This time of year is for them to get outside. Dads need some items to inspire them to get out of those home office chairs. Get them back into the real world for some extra circular activity, even a stroll. Many pieces of clothing may persuade the father figure in your life. But you can consider some more intriguing accessories also.
Keeping within budget should be no problem when impressing the man of the house. He will appreciate the effort and consideration for his confidence, appearance, and mental wellness, encouraging a day in the wild. Here is a list of selected items that can help you present the idea of physical activity and, as all dads love, practical wear for a purposeful living - presumably.

On has been on the rise as a running shoe, but, no need to tempt dad with actual running. The ATMOS x CLOUDNOVA collaboration is a stylish and functional shoe for optimal walking. And these pairs offer a unique design highlighting the On running shoe silhouette. With the CloudTec® cushion midsole, comfort, shape, and a signature Speed-lace system are inhibitors of ease in movement and practicality in a shoe for all types of terrain. This gift is sure to pique the interest of the dad who loves sneakers and footwear in general.

Marshall: Willen and the Emberton II Portable Speakers - $119.99 - $169.99
