Gift Guides
We know dads are often men of few words but incredible actions (after all, each helped bring us into the world). That’s why we understand the need to celebrate them every year for Father’s Day. Here at Shop Erazor Bits, we’ve been making incredible Patriotic apparel that gets to the heart of what it is to be American for almost thirty years, so we know what shirts work and which unique designs dads genuinely love. Welcome to our Father’s Day Edit.
When is Father’s Day in 2021?
If you’re still thinking about ideas for creative gifts and ways to celebrate your pops this year, worry not. Father’s Day is Sunday, June 20 in 2021, which still leaves you with plenty of time to think about your Father’s Day gift ideas. We’ve been busy during 2020 and this year; we have some incredible new designs that your pops is sure to love.
Say thank you to the men who truly matter.
Last year was a difficult one for many families. The coronavirus outbreak meant the time spent with our loved ones proved difficult, and many dads out there didn’t even get to celebrate the one day a year that’s devoted to them. That’s why we should all make Father’s Day 2021 one to remember. We can’t think of a better way of saying thanks and showing your gratitude than a fantastic, well-fitting t-shirt. It offers your support for our fine country and your father. These even make great gifts for father figures, anyone you want to thank for help with your upbringing, including step-fathers, fathers-in-law, grandfathers and great-grandfathers, and even other male relatives.
Inspiring designs to speak your mind
Patriotism has become a dirty word to some in America, and flying the beautiful Old Glory is something to be discouraged. We say, not in our name. It’s the love of our nation that has led America into becoming the world’s greatest superpower - from the pride of the police who protect our streets to the military forces who defend our great nation overseas - these are men and women who should be celebrated and supported. It’s the reason we make these shirts. Let your pride be known today.
And it doesn’t get more patriotic than Father’s Day, a day of remembrance founded right here in the USA in 1910 by Arkansian Sonora Smart Dodd. It all started when Dodd wanted to show her gratitude for her father’s single-minded commitment to her five siblings during the hardship of the Civil War. From there, it traveled out across America, and today, we can confidently say, sons and daughters across the world celebrate it.

Devil Dog Dads
Do you or your dad get a rising, passionate feeling inside when someone says OORAH? That’s the inspiring spirit of the USMC. There’s a reason these brave American heroes are known as the devil dogs with No Better Friend, No Greater Enemy; they’ve spearheaded America’s victories on the battlefield of every American War since their founding in 1775. How’s that for hardcore? These men and women lead by example, so do the same and support them declaring your patriotism loud and true with our collection of US Marines shirts.
How about this for a legendary design. This shirt presents the stars of Old Glory with the ceremonial saber NCO sword of the Leathernecks. If you’re looking for a shirt to turn heads while showing your pride for the Marines, you won’t find better.
Always Faithful is more than just a motto; it’s a way of life for the USMC, and this shirt says it all. Available in red, this truly makes the silver foil eagle, globe, and anchor of the USMC emblem shine.

Coast Guard Fathers
The men and women of the USCG are easily some of the most underappreciated heroes in America. Older than the Navy (1790), these champions defend our coastlines, waterways, and even overseas in Japan and Europe. If that’s not hardcore service, we don’t know what is.
With the awesome MH-65 Dolphin helicopter and the US Coast Guard emblem, you’ll be hard pushed to find a shirt anywhere as cool as this. We’ve even included the motto, Semper Paratus (meaning “always ready”). The question is, are you?

Military Shirts for Military Pops
We all know someone who has served, and we all know that we should thank the living and honor the fallen, but how often do we in our busy lives?

Help your dad to wear his heart on his sleeve this summer.

Featuring a teary-eyed American Bald Eagle and a soldier in battle gear kneeling for his fallen brethren - this is truly a shirt to get the crowds talking about American Patriotism today.
The Thin Blue Line is America’s first and last line of defense against crime, and right now, it’s never been more critical to support the men and women in blue as they’re under attack from all sides. That’s why these make the perfect gift for anyone who believes in American Justice.
People ask what’s our most popular design, and this is easily in our top 3. Featuring an awesome chrome police badge with a thin blue line, the high definition print is vital here - as situated within the badge is the American Bald Eagle and laurel wreath. This is truly a work of art in its detail.
It doesn’t get more American than an American Bald Eagle decked out with the stars and stripe of Old Glory soaring down from the sky with a Thin Blue Line ribbon in its talons. It also features the immortal lines from Matthew 5:9. Let your dad say hello to his favorite new shirt.
Firefighting Fathers
Do you know what makes a true hero? The men who walk towards the fire. America’s Firefighter Service are trained warriors who save thousands of lives every year (and with the world heating up, likely thousands more in the future). The fact that 70% of the Fire Service comprises volunteers just proves their hardcore bravery. If your dad is a firefighter or supports the US Fire Service, these shirts will light up his face.
Strength and courage are just two facets that are crucial to being a fireman, and these inspirational shirts display both alongside the incredible line from the bible, “Do not be frightened and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”
For a classic design that wears its fiery heart on its sleeve, this unique shirt is the perfect gift. Depicting the renowned symbols of the firefighting service - the ladder, ax, hydrant, and water hose - let your shirt do the talking for you.
EMS & Paramedic Papas
America’s paramedics and emergency services are warriors who fight off the grim reaper every day of the damn year. If the pandemic has proven anything, it’s that we need these brave men and women more than ever. You don’t have to be a paramedic to wear these shirts; they make the perfect gifts for dads who believe in saving American lives, which we hope is every father out there. The least we can do is show our support with a well-fitting shirt.
Featuring the glowing blue Star of Life and the entwined snake (also known as the Rod of Asclepius), this is a bold and bright shirt that captures the hearts and minds of anyone who sees it.
It doesn’t get more patriotic than an awesome American Bald Eagle (the red, white and blue symbol of the US) cradling the Star of Life. Alongside a banner stating “Service Before Self,” you know this is a shirt to remember.

These words were repeated in Georgia in 1778 and 1835 in the Texas Revolution. Truly words to live by.

Hunting for a Shirt for Dad?
Hunting is written in our blood, from our ancestors dating over 3 million years ago to today - whether ducks, deer, or bigger game.
