FAQs
Start with the pieces he already reaches for. Notice whether he prefers solids or prints, classic looks or sporty styles, then use those preferences to narrow down the shirts, shorts and sandals here.
Check the size of a similar item he already owns, then compare it with the selected product's size chart and fit notes. For shorts, check his preferred inseam as well as waist size; for sandals, review the product's sizing guidance before ordering.
Choose a style that reflects his taste and add a handwritten note about a favorite memory together. You could also pair the gift with an invitation to spend some time outside together.
