Good to be a father in the Nether­lands today: The tra­di­tional and pop­u­lar Fathers­day (Dutch: ‘Vaderdag’) is always cel­e­brated on the third Sun­day of June and typ­i­cally starts with a break­fast, that is served to the lucky ones in bed. Socks, elec­tric shavers or cig­a­res are the typ­i­cal men gifts, that are given as typ­i­cal presents on this day. We think there is a bet­ter idea: A Gaas­tra Shirt for men will expand fathers­day on the whole year for the pre­sen­tee, for it is made of robust cot­ton poplin and guar­an­tees an extra soft hand­feel and com­fort­able fit every day. Gaas­tra wishes all fathers a happy day – keep up the good work!
