Wilouby International Golf Flask – Shot Maker wilouby.com

Father’s Day looms just over the horizon. If you need some great gift ideas,
I highly recommend a visit to the Wilouby International site. This online
shopping experience offers unique items for the suave gentleman. Wilouby’s
has been around since 1985, so when it comes to the guy on your list, they
basically run the gamut for those special occasions. Giving the
8 oz. Stainless Steel Flask with Golf Accessories in a black leather pouch
as a gift will scream “You’re Special!” to that golfing Dad! The Flask
comes with slots for golf tees and stainless steel ball markers and matching
divot tool. Its special design will carry alcoholic drinks so you don’t miss
any “shots” on the golf course! Forget that terrible pun, and find yourself
some quality gift ideas at Wilouby’s, a family business out of Los Angeles
that prides itself on satisfying their customers. Check out their distinctive
items for the cigar aficionado too! Men of the links will love you for it.

Johnnie-O Prep-Formance Button Down – A Fashion Ace johnnie-o.com

Another California business rocks the fashion world across the country.
Johnnie-O describes their line of clothing as West Coast Prep. I reviewed
a shirt called a prep-formance button down. Well, maybe I should say, the
shirt I continue to review! This amazing shirt constantly finds its way back
to my wear rack. A shirt perfect for travel, you can literally roll it up and
pack it in your suitcase. With its soft moisture wicking bamboo, polyester,
and spandex fabric, this wrinkle resistant, washable shirt scores an ace.
Since untucked is a statement of prep wear, the Johnnie-O fits ideally for casual after golf dates with your
favorite escort. The first time I wore it I located a new button called the tweener button. It falls between
the second and third button for another fashion option. A nice selection of Johnnie-O items can be found in
Winchester, VA, at McKee’s at Kimberly’s. My buddy Scott Causby will set you up right.

Razor MD – The Art of Shaving razormd.com

A finely groomed man not only looks clean and mean on the golf course
but also perks up his favorite partner’s eyes. Razor MD makes shaving
an art form and brings the barber shop shave right into your home with
their terrific line of products. The Popeye Shave Collection and the C +
C Grooming Factory from Cheech and Chong top the list. The Popeye
Collection includes pre- and post-shave oils and cremes. The always
high comedy duo has put their name on fine beard and moustache grooming washes, oils, and wax. The
Gentleman’s Groom Kit from Razor MD includes a retractable badger hair shave brush, a custom black
handle 3-blade razor, and a jar of Essential Sandalwood shave cream. Razor MD prides itself on using all
natural ingredients, and they give you a NCG (No Crap Guarantee – gotta love that). Look soon for their
monthly shave club, and find them at Brookstone and Nordstrom as well as at their complete online store.

Somersets Shaving Oils – Oil’s Well That Ends Well somersets.com

The days of using shaving cream in my home may be numbered. An
introduction to Somersets Shaving Oils really opened my eyes to this
alternative to traditional shaving. I had a history of bad skin in my youth.
So shaving has always been a bumpy ride for me. The early results after
using Somersets Shaving Oils had me wondering, “What have I been
missing”! I immediately noticed fewer cuts (if any), and my skin felt much
smoother using oil rather than cream. These oils also travel excellently.
A couple of drops from the small plastic bottle and you are ready to go.
You can also shave without water or use the oil as a pre-softener to electric shaving. The oils are multi-
tasking. Not only do you protect your face from shaving, but the natural ingredients that include aloe vera,
lavender, and rosemary soothe and heal your skin. Choose from Maximum Glide Original, Extra Sensitive,
and Tough Stubble to accommodate your skin type. You will find the results from Somerset Shaving Oils
well worth it.
