Father’s Day in Australia is closing in fast, and if you’re still empty-handed, you’re certainly not alone. Now’s the time to sort something properly impressive that your old man will actually use this year. Forget the cliché socks and BBQ aprons; he has enough.
This year’s best Father’s Day gifts are the kind of things that will give him more joy than Sunday arvo in the lounge; more happiness than a Bunnings sale. We’re looking at a slick new ASUS Zenbook for the workaholic, an AI-powered Philips i9000 Prestige Toolkit for the dad who takes his grooming seriously, Nike’s Metcon 10s for the gym rat, and a bottle of 1800 Añejo for the man who knows his way around the bar cart.
We’ve pulled together the ultimate Father’s Day Buyer’s Guide for Australians who want their gifts to land. Practical, stylish, and guaranteed not to end up gathering dust. Don’t just tick the box, give him something he’ll use, enjoy and cherish. This is how you win Father’s Day 2025.
ASUS Zenbook A14
Work, life, and Netflix, Dad juggles it all, usually on outdated tech that should have found its way into the skip (or safely recycled) months ago.
The ASUS Zenbook changes that. It’s sleek, impossibly light, and powerful enough to keep up with everything he throws at it. Whether he’s running spreadsheets, editing photos, or streaming the footy highlights, this laptop is a powerhouse of performance at a fraction of the weight. ASUS has built a reputation for pairing design with performance, and the Zenbook is its flagship expression of it.
Rugby World Cup Experience Tickets
The Rugby World Cup is the peak of international rugby, where the best nations collide and legends are made. With official hospitality through Rugby World Cup Experiences, Dad doesn’t queue for a seat and a pie, he steps straight into world-class dining, premium seating, and travel packages that turn a match into a lasting memory.
From the Women’s World Cup in 2025 to the Men’s in 2027 and beyond, this is how you gift a Wallabies fan rugby at its highest level. For the father who loves the game, it doesn’t get any better than this.
ASICS Metaspeed Edge Sky
Marathon-focussed dads will appreciate the ASICS Metaspeed Edge Sky, engineered to maximise stride length without sacrificing comfort.
Its carbon plate technology and energy-returning foam allow every step to propel the runner forward effortlessly, while a lightweight upper provides breathability over long distances. It’s the perfect raceday shoe for dads chasing personal bests in style.
Van Heusen Glen Check Denim Suit – Grey (Jacket + Pants)
The Glen Check Denim Suit from Van Heusen is crafted for dads who need some help when it comes to picking out their wardrobe. Not saying he can’t dress himself, but those sweatpants and dad shoes have seen better days.
Made from a premium Australian wool blend with performance stretch, Van Heusen’s premium collection keeps up with meetings, school pickups, and the occasional dad-dance at parties, all without sacrificing style. That’s Father’s Day, sorted.
Acqua di Parma Buongiorno
Acqua di Parma has been bottling Italian elegance since 1916, and Buongiorno is their ode to mornings done properly.
It’s arguably my most used fragrance in current rotation, with big hits of citrus, herbs, and breezy freshness that transports you to a sunlit terrace in the Amalfi. For the dad who values the ritual of a crisp shirt, a strong espresso, and a moment of calm before the day, Buongiorno is the final detail.
Philips i9000 Prestige Ultra
This is not a razor. This is a grooming system designed to make every shave feel like a spa treatment.
The Philips’ i9000 Prestige Ultra uses AI-driven skin sensors and nano-sharpened blades to adjust in real time, giving Dad a shave that’s closer, smoother, and kinder to his skin. The wireless charging stand looks as good as the tool itself, which is why this belongs on the bathroom counter, not hidden in a drawer. For the dad who thinks grooming is part of the uniform, this is the Rolls-Royce of shavers.
Breitling Chronomat B01 Chronograph 42
Breitling has been making watches that demand attention since 1884, and the CHRONOMAT B01 Chronograph 42 is certainly no exception.
For dads who appreciate engineering that flexes as much as style, the Chronomat collection features sleek stainless steel and a platinum case; a 70-hour power reserve, and an in-house B01 movement that’s as precise as it is powerful. It’s $16,000 of pure confidence; one that’s loud, proud, and unapologetically Breitling.
1800 Añejo Tequila
Tequila has grown up, and so has Dad. 1800 Añejo is a world away from the shots of his youth.
Aged in French oak, smooth, complex, and best sipped slowly with sweet notes of caramel, vanilla, and spice, 1800’s aged drop is as sophisticated as any Single Malt on the drinks cart.
Perfect for the dad who already has whisky covered but wants something different, something elevated. Whether neat, on the rocks, or in a classic Old Fashioned, 1800 Añejo proves tequila can be luxury.
Westholme Wagyu - Single Sampler
Westholme Wagyu is the pinnacle of Australian beef, raised across 16 million acres of pristine northern rangeland.
The herd thrives on native grasses, guided by a nature-led, holistic approach that respects the ecosystem while delivering unmatched quality. Each cut carries signature marbling, tenderness, and flavour that discerning chefs and food lovers crave worldwide.
Whether seared on a pan or fired over charcoal, Westholme Wagyu transforms dinner into a celebration, combining provenance, taste, and craftsmanship in every bite. For the dad who treats the BBQ as a stage, gift a premium culinary experience

Powerbeats Pro 2
Dad doesn’t need wires holding him back. The Powerbeats Pro 2 gives him true wireless freedom with Apple-powered sound, unbeatable battery life, and sweat resistance that keeps up with his training.
Whether he’s smashing gym sets, running laps, or just taking work calls, these stay locked in with ear hooks that actually fit. Anything beats those old-school headphones he’s been rocking recently.
SkinCeuticals Best Seller Discovery Set
Most dads don’t admit it, but they care about their skin, especially once the Australian sun starts showing its receipts.
SkinCeuticals is the gold standard in clinical skincare, born out of medical science and used by dermatologists worldwide, producing products based on performance and designed to fight oxidative stress, sun damage, and premature ageing with the same precision your dad used to sharpen his tools.

No harsh chemicals, no shortcuts—just a premium formula and tools tailored to preserve steel, gold, and sapphire alike. For the dad who treasures his Submariner or his Speedy, this is the detail he’s been missing.
PATRICKS 3-Step Hair Loss Treatment
Hair loss is a touchy subject, but PATRICKS makes it sleek, modern, and effective.
The Australian brand has built a reputation as one of the country’s leading grooming specialists, supplying premium products for everyday blokes looking to look after themselves. PATRICKS’ 3-step system is the latest obsession.
Shampoo, conditioner, and serum work in tandem to slow thinning and stimulate growth, without the chemical smell or dated branding most products carry.

Engineered for dads who train hard and play harder, the Nike Metcon 10 blends stability, durability, and performance.
