In the Bag

Father’s Day is upon us and it’s time to honor the big guy with some great gifts that don’t begin and end with a new neck tie! Be creative and look beyond the usual – you may be surprised at what your dad secretly wishes for. It’s not unusual anymore for men to carry a small bag (man purse or satchel – you be the judge of that one!) to hold some of their essentials. Laptop cases, messenger bags and other styles of professional carrying cases are always essential for business men. And every man can always use a nice leather wallet. Okay, these are some of the ideas, now here are some of the deals available this week for dear old dad’s day!
If your father was one of the first to get his hands on an Apple iPad, Fossil has a great carrying case that is just $40. The navy leather portfolio-style tablet cover has a button-tie closure which, combined with the contrast stitching, makes it functional and stylish. Go to Fossil.com and get free shipping on orders over $50.
While you’re at the Fossil site, check out the great leather and canvas carryalls in an assortment of styles. You’ll find good old duffel, messenger and commuter bags from $74 to over $200.

If you’re looking for a simple yet useful overall bag, the Tumi Capri Crossbody Bag is great for traveling dads and young business professionals as well.

Okay, so if your dad isn’t into computers or carrying a satchel/man purse, or even an attaché case, he’ll be so excited if you give him a Ferrari for Father’s Day!
