Dad is never easy to buy for. He always says he doesn't need anything – and maybe that's true. But a personalised dogtag from Armytags isn't just another thing. It's your words embossed in metal. A piece of jewellery he'll wear with pride, because it comes from the people who mean the most.
Why a dogtag is the perfect Father's Day gift
A Father's Day gift should feel considered. Not a random shirt or a gift card. Dad deserves something that shows you know him – and that you've put thought into finding something special. A personalised dogtag is exactly that. Robust, timeless and with your own words embossed directly into the metal.
It's not just a piece of jewellery. It's a reminder of who he is – and who he's a father to.
What should go on dad's dogtag?
You have up to 5 lines of text, embossed exactly as you want it. Here's some inspiration:
From the kids: "WORLD'S BEST DAD / LOVED BY [NAME] AND [NAME]"
With a date: "DAD / SINCE [YEAR] / ALWAYS IN OUR HEARTS"
Short and sweet: "DAD / WE LOVE YOU"
Coordinates: The address of the family home, the holiday cottage or the place that means the most to your family
Military style: "[NAME] / DAD / RANK: LEGEND"
Want to add a heart? We can emboss a ♥ directly onto the tag.
Choose the right dogtag for dad
Dad isn't the type to wear just any jewellery – but a dogtag is different. It has character. Here are our recommendations:
Classic US Army dogtag – The iconic military look in stainless steel with raised lettering. Masculine, durable and timeless. Perfect for the dad who likes a raw, no-nonsense look.
Original Danish Dogtag – Exactly the same ID tag worn by Danish deployed soldiers. A proud and unique gift for the patriotic dad – or for the dad who has served himself.
Black dogtag – A black tag with silver lettering gives a more modern and edgy look. For the dad who's a little different.
All models come with your personalised text included in the price.
Complete the gift – accessories for dad's present
A dogtag is powerful on its own, but with the right accessories you make the gift even better:
Chain – Choose a robust stainless steel chain that matches the tag's masculine character.
Rubber silencer – The black rubber ring gives a cool military look and reduces any noise if dad is active.
Gift box – Place everything in one of our jewellery boxes, and the gift is wrapped and ready to give.
From the whole family – all the names on one tag
Father's Day is a family occasion. With up to 5 lines there's room for all the children's names, a date and a short message. A lasting reminder of the family he has built – and who loves him.
For the dad who has served in the military
Has your dad been a soldier or done national service? Then a dogtag isn't just a gift – it's a tribute. A tag in the same style as the ones he himself has worn. Embossed with his name, his year of service or a line that only makes sense to the two of you.
