Panasonic Arc3 Shaver
This is a great gift for the dad who loves gadgets, wants to save time in the morning or is just sick of shaving the old-fashioned way. As guys, we’re always looking for the most efficient method of getting a quick and close shave with as little hassle as possible. If you’re looking for an electric razor for Father’s Day, take a look at the all-new and waterproof Panasonic Arc3 Shaver. The Arc3 features three blades and can be used wet or dry, and we tried each way and got a close shave every time. One of the reasons for the comfortable shave was the 45-degree trimmer blade, as well as Multi-fit Arc Foil to lift and guide stubble closer to the blade. The aerodynamic Arc3 is available in white, silver or blue and is priced right at $89.95. Learn more about the new Panasonic Arc3 Shaver here or go to your local Wal-Mart store to find one.
Duke Cannon’s Big Ass Brick of Soap
If you’re looking for a manly gift, you can’t go wrong with this massive soap. Paul Eide reviewed it for us and loved it, calling it “the coolest soap you’ve never heard of.” More from Paul: “In an era where men’s body wash gels have taken over, Duke Cannon’s Big Ass Brick of Soap is truly that; it’s a big, green piece of soap that has a big “D” (imprinted on it, you perv) and weighs three-quarters of a pound. As I removed it from its sheath, I was assaulted by its fragrance. But it was a good, enjoyable assault. It smelled like a high quality men’s cologne rather than a fragrance associated with a bar of soap. Once Duke and I hit the shower after a long day at the orifice, Duke cleaned all my orifices in the most pleasing manners allowed by law. The soap also had these little yellow pieces of steel cut grains imbedded in it. Purportedly used for “maximum gripability,” they also worked to exfoliate and scrub dead skin from your body; you know, if you swing that way.” Check out his full review.
The MANGROOMER
This can be a great gift for the dad who’s bought into the whole manscaping trend, but be careful here. Not everyone realizes that they look like Bigfoot when they hit the pool, so think about this one before wrapping it up as a gift. That said, it’s a great device and it’s very easy to use. Yes, we’ve figured out that excess body hair can definitely be a turnoff. There are all sorts of trimmers out there to help you with your manscaping, but few of them make it easy to handle the hard-to-reach areas on your back. You can see the ingenious design from the photo about. The MANGROOMER simply folds out to give you an easy tool that reaches every part of your back. Just reach around your side or over your shoulder and you’ll be shocked by how easy this is to use. It also feels good on the skin as it neatly trims off the hair on your back. For the right guy it will make a fantastic gift.

Old Spice Red Zone Swagger Gift Pack
We recently received the Old Spice Swagger gift set and were jacked up to find out what was inside. Swagger immediately gets one’s attention as it’s something that most guys either have or want to have! Old Spice delivers with their Swagger line, which includes a Deodorant, Body Wash and Body Spray that have what it takes to make guys feel clean and smell like a man. Swagger Deodorant puts your odor on 24-hour lockdown and features a controlled scent release through the day and night, like one of those scent things you plug into the wall. Next up is the Swagger Body Wash, which when used will probably clean the dirtiest of guys by incorporating scent technology that lasts eight hours, which in most cases is an average workday. Refreshing lather drop-kicks dirt and odor, does a clothesline on them, and then slams them with a folding chair. Last but not least is the Swagger Body Spray, which considerably raised my game with the wife as she commented on my new scent. Old Spice has put together a great combination of quality and value that guys can appreciate, and that’s why the company has flourished over many decades.
