Fitbit Versa

For the more social, life-of-the-party dad who is open to trying out a smartwatch, the Fitbit Versa, P13,890, is the perfect choice. It has all the health and fitness features, actionable insights, and personal guidance that every Fitbit comes with.

With the Versa, dads can track activity, sleep, and heart rate as well as get a ton of other features like multiple apps and customizable clock faces in a powerful smartwatch that lasts up to four days. It also offers additional features such as on-screen workouts, in-device music storage, and tracking of swim laps and floors climbed.

Nike React Presto

Chances are, many dads will appreciate these fun Nike Prestos for Father’s Day. These are guaranteed to put a smile on his face every time he works out. After all, they are big kids at heart. With a whole new twist on colorways, the newest Presto, P6,295, with React technology is a rework of a classic silhouette. Each colorway is accompanied by cartoon characters, including Shady Milkman and Unholy Cumulus, that give the shoe a buoyant, animated quality crowdsourced from Nike employees themselves.

Marriott Hotel Health Club membership

This one is obvious: He will surely be more pumped if he gets to work out and be healthy with you. Manila Marriott’s Health Club offers a family membership for two members, inclusive of unlimited use of two of the hotel’s gym, pool, locker, and wet floor facilities at the Main Hotel and West Wing.

A free massage for one hour for one person, a 20 percent discount on spa treatments as well as food and beverage, five percent discount on spa retail, and even free parking for three hours is included in the P56,000 annual membership fee.

U Elements U Basic Tech Haul

Of course, if you want to be practical and ease their duties and responsibilities in the office, a serious work-appropriate bag is a good Father’s Day gift idea. The U Basic Tech Haul, P3,990, is a versatile two-in-one carry-on with a detachable design that allows the user to carry it as a backpack or as a briefcase or messenger bag.

Some of its features include anti-theft technology and hidden zippers to ensure that valuables are safe and protected at all times, a dedicated laptop sleeve that can hold up to 17” laptops, additional internal pockets, and dividers for a tablet, wallet, powerbank, car keys, and other everyday essentials and small items.
