For all kinds of Dads on Father's Day

Celebrating all kinds of Dads

This year Father's Day falls on June 19th in the Uk. It's a day to celebrate all kinds of fathers and father figures.

Father's Day is a way of honouring the influence of fathers in society and paternal bonds, and has been celebrated in Europe since the Middle Ages. It is a day of the year when fathers are particularly honoured by their children.

And fathers can come in all sports of shapes and sizes. A Dad , father figure ...and even a dog Dad :-)

This old photo is of my Grampy , and my Dad and his brother. I love looking through old photos !

Treat him to something different from Hettie

All Dads have a phone and probably an iPad or tablet too . Check out our range of Hettie iPad and phone sleeves to personalise his gadget and make them easy to find .

We have some classic more manly fabrics available such as the Arncliffe moonstone shown here , and also slate oatmeal.They are a great idea for a Father's Day gift.

And all Made in Britain from 100% wool which is so friendly to the environment.

Did you know that baker boy caps were worn by working class men and boys in England, Scotland and Ireland during the late 1800’s ? As more workers emigrated to the USA in the early 1900’s the baker boy cap became ubiquitous everywhere, from building sites to docks, via factories.
