He's also a sweat machine. Dickies® Cooling Tee has been amazing for him. He's worked out in it and just worn it for fun. He loved it both ways. The moisture wicking fabric is what won him over. It's a really nice looking shirt that is dressy and doesn't look like he just came from the gym.

Plus, he looks good in it. Having lost 70 lbs., I'm always looking for shirts for him. Dickies® is a great gift option to consider for Father’s Day if you are still looking for a gift.

    My husband works outdoors, and loves his Dickies apparel. He loves the khaki pants the most. Awesome brand that lasts a long time, great gift for any dad.

    1. Liz Mays

      My son works outdoors too and he always buys heavy Dickies work pants. They’re heavy duty!

  2. Robin (Masshole Mommy)

    I am taking my husband away for the weekend, so that is his gift. I want to make the weekend extra special for him because he does so much.

  3. My husband is getting a new grill. He already knows about it – because he picked it out – but he’s still super excited.

  4. Nancy

    One of my fondest memories of my Dad and I was playing catch in our back yard together. I was a bit of a tomboy which he seemed to embrace 🙂

  5. Ida

    My hubby is getting a tablet and clothes. I love Dickies, especially for schoolwear!

  6. Heather

    I forgot about this brand! Glad it’s still around and wow 70 pounds lost is amazing!

  7. Jessica Harlow

    I like the look of that t-shirt and the fact that it has moisture wicking is really great especially if my guy is working /playing outdoors during the summer. My husband is getting a fancy new showerhead for Father’s Day…LOL..it’s kind of gift we’ll both get to enjoy! lol

  8. Amanda

    This looks like a great product for my hubby to wear while outside playing with the boys or gardening. What a great giveaway they are hosting!

    So fun! My son and hubby love to play catch! Happiest of Father’s Days!

    How fun my kids love playing ball with my hubby. They do it often. We’re going to be hanging out at home on Father’s day doing whatever my hubs wants to do!

  12. Liz Mays

    I didn’t know about those cooling tees! That sounds like an awesome thing to have in the hot sun!

  13. Lois Alter Mark

    Dickies is a great brand. No wonder it’s been around for such a long time!

  14. Chubskulit Rose

    Wow, great job on losing 70 pounds, that’s a lot of hard work and dedication. Hubby lost 40 lbs last year and we had to literally shop a whole new wardrobe for him.

  15. Debbie Denny

    Great family you have, I think All dads deserve

  20. desirae young

    We love Dickies. We have used their work pants for 11 years now and my husband swears by them. He is getting fishing stuff this year.

  21. Carol Bryant

    Love the idea of a cooling tee and I need to check those out as gifts.

  22. Elizabeth O.

    Dickies is a really good brand. Most of my husband’s tees are from them.

  23. dogvills

    I’ll treat my husband simple dinner on a buffet restaurant . And dickies pants i give for him for a fathers day gift

  24. I’m planning on making croissants from scratch (one of his favorites), and giving him a few little things: two cards (one from me and one “from our son” who’s not yet 3-years-old), a children’s book about fathers and sons to read to our toddler, a photo mug with some of my favorite family photos on it from the last three years, and a 8×10 photo of my husband and son that I framed and will be the first picture to go on the walls of our newly renovated home!

  25. My dad past away when I was 8 so I never celebrated the day until my husband became a dad. We still not sure what we doing.

  26. Jessica Simms

    The shirt looks great on him, I haven’t fully decided what to get my dad yet but I know he likes to eat so we are going out to eat for Father’s Day.

  27. Ourfamilyworld

    I am baking his favorite Cheesecake on that day. He likes the Dickies brand, too, so I am probably getting him some new shirts.

  28. Melissa

    My husband could use all the help he can get on how to be comfy and stylish. I think I may have to get him some for Father’s Day.

  29. Gabriel

    I wore Dickies the whole time I worked as a server – loved the hidden thigh cargo pocket and doubled knees, they lasted years at a time.

  30. Paula Schuck

    My son is so hard on his pants. Especially the knees, playing ball and sliding on the ground. Dickies were the only pants that could stand up to him.

  31. HilLesha

    I’m taking my husband to Chattanooga, TN for Father’s Day. We’re going to visit Ruby Falls! Can’t wait. 🙂

  32. chanelle

    These Dickies look good on him. I have fond memories of playing catch with my dad and little brother when I was little. What a nice activity to do with kids.

  33. My husband likes wearing these types of shirts as undershirts or to the pool. They usually dry quickly.

  34. Lorane

    One of those Shirts would do me well in this heat! Oh Lord its hot .. I’m wondering if it traps the sweat on the inside

  35. It looks like everyone had a great time playing catch. We love Dickie’s clothing around here. It definitely stands up to the test of time.

  36. Letty C.

    It looks like it was a fun outing. I have never try the band, but will look into it.

  37. I am a BIG Dickies fan of long ago! To me, there is nothing better to see than a dad toss a ball with his son! Not only is it fun, but those times create memories!
