There are many cliche gifts for dads that someone can purchase for the upcoming Hallmark holiday, yet for stylish men with children, the Akid Father's Day collection is right up their alley. It features the limited edition Birdie style in both men and child sizes so that fathers and sons (or daughters) can sport matching footwear this coming weekend.
The Los Angeles-based children's wear line, which was founded by Matthew George and his wife, Ashleigh Dempster, focuses on streetwear for tots, so it is only natural that the Akid Father's Day collection would appeal to adults as well. Dempster says, "We thought Father's Day was a perfect time to show that our designs are universal, and they look great on dads and kids alike." The lambskin shoe is available in four colors.
