There comes a point in every dad when he either clings to his tailored clothes or gracefully evolves his style. With Father’s Day around the corner, it’s the perfect excuse to leave behind dated polos and those tragically “practical” sandals. Instead, let’s talk sharp button-downs, denim that works overtime, and sneakers that say, “I’ve still got it.”

The Shirt That Says It All
Let’s start at the top—literally. An elevated basic shirt is the MVP of any dad’s wardrobe. Think: relaxed tailoring, quality cotton from COS and maybe a camp collar moment By Thian. Go monochrome Balmain or experiment with tonal prints from JW Anderson for that low-key cool vibe.
Denim That Doesn’t Scream ‘Weekend Dad’
Now, onto the jeans. No, not those worn-in bootcuts that have survived a decade of lawn mowing. We’re talking about super-styled denim such as dark-washed, well-fitted, and maybe even selvedge if you’re feeling fashion forward. The kind of denim that pairs perfectly with a blazer or looks just as slick with a plain tee.
The Sneaker Statement
No stylish dad look is complete without fresh kicks. Think premium leather low-tops, vintage court-style sneakers, or even minimal suede trainers that walk the line between street and sophistication.
When Dad Wears Style
As someone we call ‘Dad’ often forgets to put themselves on the list. They’ll dress the part for everyone else but rarely indulge in an upgrade. That’s where you step in. Great style isn’t about trends, it’s about fit, comfort, and confidence.
So this Father’s Day, skip the “World’s Best Dad” mug and gift him something that actually fits into his life. Because the coolest dads aren’t trying to be 25 again but they’re making 45 look damn good.
