Cuff-Daddy Review & Giveaway


When planning a wedding, there are so many small things to consider that things such as mens' accessories can easily be forgotten.  While the bride is getting ready for the big day the groom can treat himself too by purchasing a nice new pair of cuff links that enable him to reflect his own personal style.  Cuff-Daddy is an online shop that sells reasonably priced cuff links in just about every style you can imagine.  Cuff links sold by Cuff-Daddy include novelty cuff links, cuff links box/case, tuxedo cuff link stud sets, functional cuff links, specialty cuff links, wedding cuff links, hobby related cuff links, and even womens cuff links.  Besides cuff links, Cuff-Daddy also sells money clips, wallets, necktie/cuff link gift sets, pendants & chains, unique gifts for men,

Cuff-Daddy is the perfect place to shop if you are looking for stylish fairly priced cuff links for yourself (as a groom or just for everyday wear) or for someone else as a gift.  For example, Cuff-Daddy is a great way to break the routine of giving Dad that traditional tie for Father's Day.  Why not give Dad a cuff-link set that will fit his personality to a tee this Father's Day?

Here's what you'll receive when you order a pair of cuff links from Cuff-Daddy:
 
Review
Cuff-Daddy offered to send me a set of their Hammered Silver Designer Cuff Links to review.  These cuff links measure 9/16" inches square in diameter and they are made from rhodium silver.  Here's a bit more about the cuff links straight from the horse's mouth (in this case, Cuff-Daddy):

"This one of a kind pair of cufflinks is truly quite some piece of art. It looks like our talented craftsmen, for whatever reason, took their anger and frustrations out on a 9/16” sized square rhodium silver piece, pounding it into a concave shape and then stopped. When the air cleared, what they saw was an uncanny piece of metal artwork, another unique creation borne out of that de-stressing session. Okay, the de-stressing part was made up. What really happened is that we created another great product offering for you to add to your cufflink collection. Rest assured, these pair is built to last a lifetime.

The first thing I noticed when I received my review cuff links was the box.  As you see in the picture above, the box that these cuff links come in is absolutely adorable and perfect for gift giving or for storage afterwards.  I was definitely impressed by the quality of packaging considering the low price of these cuff links (only $33.99/pair - compared to ARV of $69.99).

The next aspect that I noticed was the modern style of these cuff links.  The pattern on these cuff links are simple and they can easily be worn for formal occasions or more casual events.  Because of their simplicity, I believe these cuff links could be worn by most people, no matter of their preference of style; these are very versatile and suit a number of different looks.  Additionally, compared to the pictures shown on Cuff-Daddy's website, these cuff links
show better in person.


Finally, these cuff links are moderately weighted.  I can tell that they are fairly good quality and would last for quite awhile, however, they aren't so heavy that they'll wear your arms down!

In conclusion, I have to say that I'm definitely satisfied with these cuff links.  Fortunately, I have nothing negative to report about my experience with Cuff-Daddy.  My review product was shipped extremely quick, the quality of the product met my expectations, the price of this product exceeded my expectations, as did the variety of products that Cuff-Daddy sells.  If you are looking for a unique gift for the groom, your Dad, or yourself, Cuff-Daddy is a great place to start!  Plus, if you are looking for more than one set of cuff links (example: for a bridal party), Cuff-Daddy offers great discounts on multiples.
