    Still scrambling to find your fab father the perfect gift for his big day? Fear not, we have several last minute (green) gift ideas that will have your dad wishing it was Father’s Day everyday.

    For the athlete

    Is your dad always on the go? Treat him to some well-deserved pampering with the Asha Sports Massage ($95) at the SPA at Hotel Felix. This deep-tissue sports massage is designed for those who are active with a focus on prevention of injury and enhancing muscular performance. For more info check out the website or call the SPA at (312) 447-3440.

    For the chef

    If you’re father is a fixture at the stove or grille, get him a set of socially responsible gourmet hot sauce. The Coop Hot Sauce Gift Set ($34.95) from Chicago’s own Greenheart Shop includes four sauces all handcrafted from Chicago community gardens. Each set contains two bottles of classic, one habanero and one jalapeno. All proceeds go directly to supporting Co-op Image’s free youth art center and community garden in Chicago’s Humboldt Park Neighborhood.

    For the clothes horse

    Pick up Dad an American Apparel Organic Fine Jersey Short Sleeve Tee ($18) in his favorite color. Made of 100% organic cotton this tee is so irresistibly soft you might want to pick up one for yourself too!

    For the stressed

    Give Dad the R&R he deserves with the Sundari Gentlemen’s Facial ($105) at the SPA at Hotel Felix. This targeted treatment is specifically developed for the unique needs of a man’s skin. Dad will leave with his skin feeling cleansed, soothed and refreshed.

    For the beer aficionado

    We couldn’t pass up these one-of-a-kind Recycled Corona Beer Bottle Glasses ($9.95) from Greenheart Shop. Recycled glass tumblers are created from the bottom of -you guessed it- Corona bottles by the Green Glass company in Wisconsin. Each bottle is made of 100% reclaimed glass.

    Happy Father’s Day!
