8 Ethically Made Products To Buy Dad This Father's Day

Shopping for gifts can be overwhelming, especially with thousands of amazing brands online to choose from. And when it comes to shopping for your favorite dad, the guy who deserves the world, it might feel impossible.

After spending some time sifting through the interwebs and the world of e-commerce, we've curated a list of budget-friendly gifts, all under $100, to make your shopping experience a tad easier.

Plus, feel good about all of these products knowing we have vetted the best of the best products on the market with positive human and environmental impacts. 

Here’s how we pick and choose products:

• We do our research! We carefully sift through customer reviews to make sure what we’re recommending is top notch quality outside of the screen and consumers like you agree too.
• Hands-on testing: we evaluate each product’s performance, durability, ease of use, and other critical factors that are also evaluated in the long-term.
• Each brand has a mission dedicated to human-beings like all of us and an environmental impact that will change the world in the long run. 
• We mostly tend to lean towards brands that you probably haven’t heard of - the underdogs that are doing the most and not getting all the recognition they deserve.
