Your Dad Will Actually Want To Keep Every One Of The Gifts On This List

Father’s Day is upon us, and the pressure is on to impress your dad or the father figure in your life. It's hard to pick out a gift men actually, really want and won't politely pretend to like when they unwrap it in front of you. Even if he’s not expecting anything (but, let's be honest—he is), the perfect present can be a great way to show him how well you know him and what is bound to put a smile on his face.

Chances are, it won’t help to ask your dad what he wants this year—if he's just as cheesy as most dads, he’ll probably just give you the unhelpful answer, “Hugs!”. So, first things first: What’s your dad or father figure like? If he is well on his way to becoming a grill master, a grilling tools set can power up his medium-well steaks and summer corn-on-the-cobs.

Or, maybe he’s the kind of dad who douses any food possible in hot sauce. You can add a new fiery sauce to his arsenal of seasonings and spices. And, if he’s the dad who always made your friends laugh at his quirky, endearing jokes? There’s a t-shirt for that. If you’re still stumped, you can gift a family print sure to make the old man misty eyed (and it’s an upgrade from the days of scribbles framed in macaroni).

It can be easy to run out of ideas that are both thoughtful and actually useful, especially after all of these years. Luckily, we’ve curated a list of the 61 best Father’s Day gifts for the nostalgic dad, the sporty dad, the chef dad, and every kind of dad in between.
