Father’s Day is the one day of the year that I get to show dad I was listening when he’d yell from the bleachers that I needed to adjust my swing. Dad took me to my first baseball game, taught me to drive, and tossed me in a pool so I’d learn to swim. I owe him a lot.
Despite everything they do, dads tend to get stuck with socks and ties on Father’s Day. This year, I decided to change things up and make up for all of the horrible gifts over the years. Instead of socks, how about a new set of billiard balls? Try upgrading his gift from a tie to a putting green and see how much his attitude changes. And if all else fails, go for the beard or face skincare kits and make him feel young again. Here are 37 Father’s Day ideas fathers will actually love this year.
These Home Theater LED Strips
My dad is obsessed with his media room. I may be his firstborn, but that TV is his baby. If this sounds familiar, get dad these LED strips that add subtle ambiance for any home theater.
This Record Cleaning Kit
Vinyl is making a comeback, but for my pop, it’s never gone away. There’s a full wall of records in my parents’ house with music from early jazz to EDM. This record cleaner is the right gift for any music-loving dad.
This Nifty Beer Layering Tool
If you’ve never heard of a Black + Tan, your dad probably has, so why not make it easier for him to enjoy his favorite drink? This handy little tool allows him to make layered beer cocktails with ease and is a must-have addition to any home bar. If you really want to spoil him, you can throw in this How-to Make Layered Beer Cocktails guide too!
This Bluetooth Speaker
Few things sum up the Dad Life more than singing in the shower. I’m getting dad this portable speaker so he always has a music backing track in the shower. And when he hits the road, this speaker will go with him playing the soundtrack to his life.
These DVD Storage Boxes
Streaming is fine, but dads everywhere must be the reason that DVDs are still getting made today. These storage boxes help dad organize his extensive movie collection without taking up too much space on the bookshelf.
This Charging Station
My dad’s favorite words to me have always been, “turn off the lights,” “take out the trash,” and of course, “clean up your mess.” This charging station keeps all his devices charged and tidy, just like he likes it.
This Running Bottle and Holder
Whether it’s for running, walking, hiking, or just commuting to work., this water bottle is a handy gift for any dad looking to stay healthy by getting steps in every day. The bottle holder even holds his phone and other valuables.
These Coffee Mugs
I know better than to talk to dad before his morning coffee. These coffee mugs make it so that his coworkers don’t have to incur the wrath of a decaffeinated father when he gets to work.
This Phone Wallet
Ya know how dad used to always leave the house without his wallet? The thing he never forgets to leave without is his phone. This MagSafe wallet puts all dad’s cards attached to the one thing he never forgets.
This Shaping Tool
It took me years to realize the original purpose of a garage was to store your car. Ours was always packed with every tool imaginable. Dad loved cutting things but would blow up if he made an incorrect cut or measurement. This shaping tool could’ve ended so much frustration back then.
This Bike Phone Holder
Weekend warrior dads love taking their bikes out on a Saturday morning. This bike phone holder affords dad the freedom of morning bike rides and keeps him connected to his music, family, and work messages.
This Socket Driver
A screwdriver works but this T-handle driver makes it so dad can get a solid grip and drives nuts and bolts tight so he doesn’t have to redo the job. This Father’s Day, give him something he’ll actually use. Socks don’t cut it.
This Tire Inflator
Dad brags that he can change the tires on the car but that doesn’t mean he actually wants to be stuck on the side of the road with a flat. This tire inflator rides in the car trunk to make flats a thing of the past.
This TV Shelf
Throughout human history, the television has been the centerpiece of every dad’s happy place. With the TV on the wall, this shelf is perfect for holding remotes, gaming headsets, and whatever else dad wants to keep within reach.
This Car Seat Cover
My dad spends a lot of time sitting. He sits on a bike for his morning workout, he sits in the office, and he sits in his car each morning and each afternoon. This waterproof seat cover keeps him comfortable and keeps the seat clean.
This Multi-Tool
Dad likes tools but not every job needs a band saw or a full set of screwdrivers. He loves this multi-tool because it’s all he needs to complete those little quick jobs that ultimately earn dads that #1 Dad mug.
This Golf Shirt
This Father’s Day, try giving dad the gift of golf. We spend so much time stressing over the right gift when all dad wants is to play 18 holes and do it in style. That’s why this shirt is the perfect companion to the gift of a special golf outing.
This Telescoping Magnet Stick
I love that dad loves to help me work on his car, but he’s always losing nuts and bolts and I’m concerned that one day it will be a bolt that holds the whole car together. This magnet stick solves that problem with a telescoping bar and built-in LED lights.
This Streamlined Wallet
Tired of seeing dad lean to one side when he sits down due to his bulky wallet? This slim wallet immediately puts an end to the fat-wallet problem. It also protects against identity theft – because there’s nobody like dad.
This Hose Wand
The front and back yards are like an artistic canvas for every dad I’ve ever met. This wand is perfect for watering everything. Whether dad is spraying down the lawn, watering succulents, or washing down the driveway, the seven spray patterns make it all possible without the worry of overwatering.
This Beard Straightener
Dads care about looking good and beards are in. This beard straightener will give dad a beard all other dads will envy and make him feel 20 years younger.
This Putting Green
It seems all dads spend most of their weekends golfing or thinking about the next time they’ll go golfing. If my dad isn’t on an actual golf course, he’s practicing his putting on this green. Pick one up for your pops.
This Beard Trimmer
Not every dad wants to sport a long beard. Sometimes, my dad prefers to go with a five o’clock shadow or goatee. This beard trimmer makes a great gift for dads who groom their facial hair depending on their mood.
This Ring Toss Game
My dad has worked hard all his life. When he got me through college, he had one dream left. He wanted me to move out so he could turn my room into his man-cave. He finally got his wish and to thank him for getting me to this point, I got him this ring toss game for the wall.
This Hair Care Kit
This kit makes a great gift for all the dads out there who want to leave the house feeling like a million bucks. These hair products add shine, style, and hold, without looking like a spiked-up teenager.
This Pool Cue
My dad taught me everything there is to know about pool and my Pool Shark status partially got me through college. I never had to settle for microwave noodles! It just seems right to gift him this pool cue for Father’s Day.
This Beard Grooming Kit
My dad takes does not believe in doing anything halfheartedly. When he decided to grow a beard, he let it be known he was going to groom that thing like he was entering a beard competition. That’s why I picked up this orange walnut beard wash and grooming kit.
This Billiards Rack
A proper man-cave needs more than a pool table. This rack holds up to six pool cues, balls, triangles, and other billiards accessories. It takes dad’s happy place to a new level of cool.
This Men’s Facial Care Kit
My dad has always believed that facial care consists of washing your face and shaving. This year, I want to show him the joys of pampering your face with this care kit. There’s nothing like a charcoal scrub and aloe vera wash to make you feel refreshed.
These Workout Cards
While my dad is probably more active than most, he still struggles with consistency when it comes to workouts. I bought him these workout cards so he could mix things up and get a good sweat going without ever leaving home.
This Desktop Tiki Toss Game
Okay, so I know I bought this Tiki Toss desk game for my dad for Father’s Day, but now I’m considering just keeping it for myself. It has a simple yet addicting concept and makes sitting through meetings much more enjoyable.
This Pickleball Set
My dad was my basketball coach, baseball coach, tennis coach, and life coach. He can’t move as fast as he once did but he still likes to be active. This pickleball set gets both of us together on a court again to think about the good ‘ol days.
This Durable Backpack
My dad loves roaming around trails and snapping pictures of wildlife with nothing but water and beef jerky in his pockets. This backpack is lightweight and water-resistant to handle any day hikes and camping trips.
These Pool Balls
Stripes and solids are so ordinary and not good enough for my dad. This set of pool balls will make his table stand out from any others. He’ll never want to shoot pool in a poorly-lit hall again!
This Gentlemanly Umbrella
The umbrella has always been an element of elegance when it’s folded. Unfortunately, when you actually need to use it in wind and rain, it flips up, bends, and ultimately leaves you soaked instead of protected. This inverted umbrella maintains its elegance but keeps you dry and never flips up.
This Laptop Stand
Now that you’ve seen your dad working from home and seen him hunched over his laptop while on conference calls, it’s time to give him something that will help him at work and improve his posture. This laptop stand raises his laptop so that he’s always at eye level with his other meeting participants.
This Muscle Roller
Dad is a weekend warrior but he’s achy, stiff, and moody by Sunday afternoon. He usually regrets going so hard on the court or pushing himself to run more than he can handle. This muscle roller should help relieve the pain and hopefully ease his feelings of regret so he can do it all over again next weekend.
