Holiday Gift Guide

Great Gifts for All Kinds of Dads

Dads can be tough to shop for. They say they don't need much, right? Either they're simple creatures without many needs or they're just not the type of guy who treat themselves to whatever they want. But on the bright side, that means you could probably get him something he'd really like. You just need to think about what your father, or your partner or perhaps someone dad-like in your life, likes to do and how he prefers to spend his time. From an old-school, indigo-dyed sweatshirt or handsome pocket knife to a classic record player and an easier way for him to charge his devices, we've got a lot of your bases covered.

5 Stylish Items to Buy This Week

The coolest coats today are a little longer and a bit looser. The best ones usually derive that vibe from slouchy raglan sleeves that drop the shoulders a bit—a subtle tweak that changes their silhouette dramatically. Madewell makes a really great one ($398) for a reasonably affordable price, cut from a substantial wool blend fabric with double-stitched seams for added durability and oversized welt pockets for easy storage and keeping your hands warm all winter.
