A few months back, we featured a post about Ewin’s Dry Goods. Nearly a day later, we had hashed out a plan for an amazing giveaway to help some of our readers find the perfect gift for Father’s Day for free! The guys at Ewin’s Dry Goods were kind enough to put together an amazing package for us.
If you’re familiar with the company, then you will know that they specialize in “timeless accoutrements for the modern man.” One of the coolest things that they do is put together themed gift sets, which are bundled packages, usually in cigar boxes (extra manly), and they just happen to be the perfect gift for any guy. As an added touch of masculinity to the gift sets, they are also hand wrapped in White Butcher Paper.

My hubs will be a first time father soon. These gift baskets would make a perfect father-to-be gift for Fathers Day (especially Package #2)!!!
My dad needs one of these to take his mind off working 0430 to 1630 six days a week at our new business!
Working full time with a mom and baby at the house makes for a full day. I’d love a little manly accoutrement to help find the quiet moments…
My hubby is the best and sweetest guy in the world, not to mention FABULOUS father and grandfather to our kids and grandkids. That’s why!
My father definitely needs one of these because his birthday falls on Father’s Day and I’m a poor college student! He deserves the best but my wallet didn’t get the memo…
My father deserves one of these timeless treasure gift sets! He has had a difficult past 12 months – he has buried both his parents this past year, recovered from bilateral blot clots in his lungs, and we will be in Idaho moving the remaining items of his mother’s back to Alabama over the Father’s Day Weekend. The past year has been very hard on him and deserves this special gift!
My dads gone through some rough times in the past year. He’s worked hard and persevered and I try to tell him how proud we all are of him. This would make a great gift to show him how much he means to us.
I wouldn’t mind one for myself. I am a hard working father of one with another one on the way (any day). It would be a nice surprise to receive an awesome gift box with some incredible products in them that anyone would be blessed to have.
I’m a man living a life devoid of manly appurtenances.
As a father we don’t always get to stop and enjoy the finer things in life and these are definitely some fine things!
My father is a good man who deserves these kinds of classy things, but just can’t afford them. He should get a chance to feel pampered and amazing!
My husband don’t deserve but need this- its about time he elevated up to the big boy league of pampering himself and these are some great products to do that.
Hubby would think I’m special if I give him these products. He works hard and it will be a nice gesture plus I will get awesome perks!
My best friend has been going through a rough patch right now, and I know that winning would make everything better!
My husband and I have 2 babies under 2 (21 months & 4 months). He has a huge heart for his kids and has worked SO hard to provide for them from day one. I never thought I would be able to be a stay-at-home mom but he has made it possible. Besides working a full-time job, he also has two side businesses that he has been working for over a year now. With all the work he does, it’s a wonder he has any time to actually spend with the kids, but he makes it happen. After working all day, he comes home and wrestles with our son and snuggles with our baby girl until they go to bed. Then he stays up very late working on the side businesses. He is definitely a man’s man and so deserving of either of these gift sets for all of his sacrifices.
This gift would be perfect for my dad whos hobby is to collect flasks. He has around 30 different flasks right now and would be a wonderful fathers day gift
Deserve? I probably don’t. Want? Yes!
When I asked my wife (via IM) what makes me a good Dad (or bad one for that matter, this is what she wrote back):
“Despite being impatient about a lot of things- you are patient to her. Even when you’re exhausted because she woke us up at 4:00, you smile at her and make sure she knows how much you love her. You can make her laugh better than anyone else. You take her to and from daycare almost every day, and coordinate with the ladies there about her care. You share in the doctor’s appointments. You worry with me. You want to do everything for her. You spend time with her. You want to take her places and watch her have new experiences.
Should I keep going?
We both could be better at not getting so stressed and being better under pressure when it comes to her though.
Why these questions? Are you going to tell me if I’m a good mommy?”
Im getting married in August and the guy who is my best man has really lived up to the responsibilities of that title so far. He deserves some cool stuff. Unless its the soap. I’m not giving another man a basket of soap. Those would be for me and my lady.
My father used to have a flask and it was lost a few years ago and I would love to give him an S&B one. The other stuff just looks awesome…especially the wallet, whiskey shave soap and corkscrew.
My dad is missing out on the finer things in life. He deserves a Father’s Day to remember.
What better way to tell my father, a man who took another full time job after retirement, that he is appreciated.
My husband isn’t and will not be a father this Father’s Day, but he deserves a gift for being a great man. We got married almost 6 months ago and he has been a great support to me the whole time. Being 1000 miles from family, I have leaned on him and never doubted his ability to provide for me.
Great giveaway!
My husband was finally able to retire permanently (for the third time) this spring. After retiring he worked tirelessly to make our daughter’s wedding day a special event for her and her future husband, and all of our family and friends. Winning a basket would be a wonderful way to start his “summer of leisure”
celebration. He truly deserves it.
All my dad does is give! Working 10 hour days to be sure all his children get the very best including the 4 kids my parents opened their home to and adopted!! I’d like to give him the very best for fathers day he deserves it!
My Dad has been through a lot lately and I know something like this would be a great gift for him. He is a tough, hard working man and deserves nothing but the best, since that is what he has given his family all his life.
My dad is a man I look up to and he has given me so much in my life and I would love to give him something special like this on a special day. He has always been there for me and my two brother and taught us how to be men and to spoil him a little bit and to see him smile would mean the world to me.
After working 59 years, and nearing retirement, something like the first package would be a great way to thank him not just for being a good dad but also an excellent mentor & teacher.
My father served 22 years in the United States Army. He has been all over the world protecting the freedoms that so many of us unfortunately take for granted today. Since he retired from the military, he went back to work for the government again as a Private Contractor. He has raised 5 daughters and myself, his only son. My father is the strongest man I know. My mother had an extremely rare form of cancer early in her life which she did beat. Unfortunately the treatment they did to help cure her of the cancer causes her to be hospitalized for sometimes up to 8 or 9 months every single year. My father has been by her side through all of this for going on 35 years while taking care of his family at the same time. It takes a very special man to be able to go through what he has gone through. Not only does he still do it every single day but he still does it with a smile on his face. He truly is the best man I know
This year is the first year in 29 years where my Father doesn’t live with one of his kids. I’m the last one to go to college and since he lives across the Pacific, he misses us so much! (I miss him loads too!) I’m really grateful that he dedicated a lot of time and effort on us kids, so I wish that he can retire soon and relax! It’s about time that he’s stopped taking care of us (even though he always will) and for us kids to start taking care of him by giving him a good, relaxed lifestyle. One of these gifts sets would be perfect to set him on course!
