For Father's Day, Zappos.com, the online shoe retailer, has opened a pop-up shop in Seattle. The shop, which is Zappos first brick and mortar location outside of its headquarters in Las Vegas, features clothing and accessories geared specifically towards the modern father.

In Zappos.com's estimation, dads' styles today revolve around understated classics paired with the ability to get out and active at a moment's notice. Brands featured in the Zappos.com pop-up include Cole Haan, [New Balance](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-balances-tech-explosion), [Adidas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/style-your-toe), and [The North Face](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vectiv-breeze-2). Further, the pop-up recognizes that what a father might be looking for on his day extends beyond clothing. The shop has scored partnerships with several local Seattle vendors to also offer things like free haircuts, food, and a putting green staffed by golf pros.
