The Ironclad Co.
Treat dad to a gift that lasts 100 Father’s Days. The Ironclad Co. have recently launched Old Dutch, a unique combination oven and the only product of its kind. Co-founder Kate Slavin explains “Single-use items are such a waste of space in our kitchen. I designed Old Dutch to be multi-functional as possible; its unique shape allows you to cook a wider variety of dishes across any cooking surface”. The perfect tool for roasting, stewing, steaming and soup-ing, Old Dutch is also great for making bread, as a camp oven and comes with a lid that can be used solo as an extra skillet. What more could dad ask for?!

Made by a third generation family company in Ōtautahi Christchurch. Available in a range of powdercoated colours exclusive to Frances Nation.

Hot on the heels of winning the Sustainable Business Network ‘Going Circular’ award, the team have dreamed up a mouth-watering range of rescued sauces designed by award-winning chef and Citizen Co-founder Ben Bayly.
"All our products share the same philosophy... we rescue and upcycle delicious core ingredients to make super tasty things that are good for our planet. We want to encourage people to see food waste differently," says Ben.

Auckland Whale and Dolphin Safari is the only whale-watching tour that departs directly from downtown Auckland, where the whole family can enjoy a 4.5-hour cruise on board the comfortable ‘Dolphin Explorer’ exploring the beautiful Hauraki Gulf Marine Park. From the large open boat deck, enjoy views of famous Auckland landmarks like the Harbour Bridge, North Head and Devonport, and volcanic Rangitoto Island, as you watch out for Bryde’s whales and dolphins known to frequent the inner Waitematā Harbour.

Barkers
There are suits, and then there’s made-to-measure. The team at Barkers believe every man should experience a suit tailored to his exact measurements at least once. Designed for both your milestones and your everyday life, a well-tailored suit is the kind of thing you hang on to, treasure, and even hand down to the next generation.
The Barkers Made to Measure programme gives you the power to not only select the style and cut, but also choose from a range of fabrics and trims to accurately reflect your taste. Your suit will be one of a kind, just like you are.
Man O’ War
No trip to Waiheke is complete without a visit to NZ’s only beachfront cellar door and bistro in the stunning Man O’ War Bay.
Man O’ War is one of the most regarded and largest fine wine producers on the island, with 75 single vineyards across 4,500 acres of active farm land. The farm to table ethos comes into full effect in the bistro, with opportunities to taste fruit from their orchards, olive oil from olive groves and honey from beehives that take up residence among restored native forests. Man O’ War’s rugged and exposed farm is ideal to rear grass-fed, island cattle, exposed to the salty and maritime environment.
Coffee Supreme
Feel like you’ve hit the jackpot with your dad? Are they #1. Well if so, you can let them know with a Coffee Supreme Father's Day coffee and their #1 Dad mug. Choose between 250g bags of Supreme Blend or Ethiopia Guji (or grab a mix; dad deserves it), then take your pick from one of two labels — Love You Dad or #1 Dad — and they'll make sure it is delivered to where it needs to go.
