Welcome to Dads Bad Habits

Welcome to Dads Bad Habits—an affiliate review and blog site about the gear, gadgets, and little indulgences I justify buying in the name of “usefulness.” Whether it’s a new grill thermometer, a solid beard oil, or a flashlight I didn’t need but now love—if it’s cool, I want to talk about it.

This site is for guys like me: dads with responsibilities and shopping habits. If your Amazon cart is full of “just in case” tools or the newest grooming gear, you’re in the right place.

Family comes first, always. But that doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy some extras. From real product reviews to gear breakdowns and gift ideas, I’ll cover what’s worth grabbing—and what’s just clever marketing.

Also, full transparency: I use affiliate links. If you click something and buy it, I might earn a small commission. It doesn’t cost you anything extra—it just helps me keep this blog going (and justify my next bad habit). I’ll always give you the straight story, whether it pays me or not.

Want a good starting point? Check out my review of Abraham’s Men’s Products for some quality grooming gear. More into tools or EDC setups? That’s coming too.

Here’s some of our latest posts:

I’ve also got some original products for sale—tees, hats, mugs, and whatever else I can slap a logo or bad idea onto. Everything’s print or embroidery on demand, so it might take a little longer to ship. But that setup means no overhead for me, and it gives you a way to support the site without me turning into a walking ad. If you like what I’m building here, picking up some merch is a solid way to keep it going.

No sponsorship. No fluff. Just honest takes from a dad who likes his stuff and isn’t afraid to admit it.
