Our Story

Nobody gets the importance of community quite like the gays. From feeling like outsiders to finding people who love us without reservation, we know both the pain of being tribeless and the joy of true belonging.
When my husband and I became dads, I craved more ways to connect with others on this wild, beautiful ride called fatherhood. I was looking for celebration. A space where families like mine could feel seen, supported, and full of pride.


That’s why I started Gaddies: to build something bold and joyful for us. The first brand created specifically for gay dads, Gaddies exists to elevate our stories, spark connection, and create community.
Whether you’ve been a dad for decades or you’re taking baby steps towards first time fatherhood, Gaddies wants you to to feel seen and inspired to parent with pride.
So when you spot me in the wild at the bake sale or on the dance floor, come say hi! This gaddy would love to hear from you.
