The new FreeFloat dynamic hipbelt moves with the body for energy-saving comfort on the trail. Dad will also love that the suspended, open-air backpanel keeps him cool on warm days.

iGourmet Gift Box
If your dad is a foodie, he will love a gift box from iGourmet. You can find a cool gift box full of exactly the types of food that interests him. My husband loves having a beer and nibbling on some gourmet appetizers so this Martha Stewart Father’s Day Charcuterie Box would be perfect for him.
Kore Essentials Trakline Belt
These cool track belts are game changers. There are no one-inched spaced, poor fitting, belt holes to deal with. Instead you get the perfect fit every time with trakline 100% full-grain leather belts. My husband had 3 or 4 belts but he only wears his Kore Essentials belt now!

The Perfect Sandals
I love Keen sandals for active summer fun. I got my husband the Keen Newport H2 Sandal to get him through hikes and water rafting. (ARV $99) If your husband is like mine, he could always use a new pair of shoes whether it is a pair for running, work, or casual attire. You can use my affiliate Amazon link and there may even be free shipping!
Manscaping
Most men won’t shell out extra dollars for manscaping beauty treatments, but the relaxation of an aromatherapy massage or masculine manicure might be the thing he always wanted but didn’t know it. Even if your guy is rough and tumble, a little extra attention and indulgence can make him feel special and cared for. I got my own dad a pedicure last year. He said I was embarrassing him when I dragged him in with me but I saw him loving his chair massage and he told me the next day how good his feet felt. If you dad has restless feet or sore feet like my father does, he may also love Calming Foot Lotion from Epsom-It.
Indulge His Inner Nerdiness
All men have that singular fixation, the one thing that focuses his attention. It might be as obviously nerdy as a collection of old Dr. Who or an obsession with high quality kitchen gadgets. Whether it’s a low-number, limited edition maquette or a banner from the National Championship–take time to indulge the interests that make him uniquely him.
Microsoft Surface
If you have done something and you owe the dad in your life big time or he is just that cool and you have some cash burning a hole in your pocket, a Microsoft Surface is a pretty sweet gift. With the new Surface, get the perfect balance of performance and value. Surface runs Windows , so you have access to all your favorite programs, apps, and browsers, including the full Microsoft Office Suite, iTunes, Netflix, Chrome, Firefox and more. Dad can play all his favorite game apps and get down to serious work all on the same devise. (Starting at $499+.) You can read my Surface Pro 7 review or learn more and buy one at microsoftstore.com
Get His Favorite Scent
Sometimes dads may hold back from splurging on their favorite cologne because it is too pricey. Get it for him and look one of those cool gift packages with the extra goodies in his favorite scent. You might consider Kenneth Cole’s latest fragrance kit – MANKIND Hero as a way to tell your father he’s your hero! The kit includes the fragrance, after shave balm and hand and body wash.
Get That Gadget
Undoubtedly he has dropped hints about the latest doohickey he wants. Maybe its a Dremel for his toolbench, or an electronic device to measure the distance to the pin. The modern world is full of gizmos designed to make life easier and menfolk swoon, from smart phones to GPS devices for golfing to an Apple watch. Perk up your ears the next time you hit the hardware or electronics store–chances are he is talking the ear off a sales associate about the newest, the latest, the gadgetiest gadget. Take notes and ask questions, when its time to gift surprise him by getting the exact right thing that will help dad stay abreast of all the latest technology. It is hard to beat cool gadgets.

Tickets To That Thing
You know the big game, the opening night of that show, that concert of the band he loved when he was sixteen. Some of the best gifts aren’t things, but experiences. Give him the tickets to something he will remember.
Feed The Beast
Take time to make his favorite meal from appetizer to dessert. Be it smoked trout or a juicy New York strip steak, chocolate cherry cake or snickerdoodles, make the things that he likes. They even have themed gift baskets for men if you are not able to be there to cook for him yourself. Or if you dad is like most and loves to grill, consider getting your dad some high quality meat and grilling accessories. Dad will be able to do what he loves in style and think of you each time he uses his custom cutting board or flips his steak with those tongs you got him.
Lawn Help
A lot of men take pride in their yard. But getting the green turf they envision can be a challenge. Help a dad out with a subscription to Lawnbright, a natural, DIY lawn care subscription box. Lawnbright combines the best in natural lawn care with tech to make it an easy to use, effective system. They delivers a custom mix of products that make their grass and soil healthier (for a better lawn) without harmful chemicals (for a better earth and a lawn that’s safer for kids and pets). Customers take a quick soil sample with their first delivery that determines the right mix of products for them. Lawn care is really tricky to get right, and the point of Lawnbright is to take the guesswork out – you just literally follow the prompts and you’re done. My husband appreciates that!

Love these Father’s Day gift ideas! There’s truly no better way to show appreciation for all Dad does than with something thoughtful. I especially like the personalized gift options—such a good gift that reflects your family’s love. For those of us doing a last-minute scramble, some of these are lifesavers (and still super meaningful!). The stainless steel tools and bottle opener ideas are great—practical and stylish, especially if they come in different colors to match his style. Plus, anything that helps him relax with his favorite tunes or cross something fun off his to-do list is a win. Thanks for sharing such creative day gift ideas—we’re all about making memories and spending quality time together!

I couldn’t decide on a gift not for my father, but for my grandfather. He turns 89 on June 20. You helped me – I will give him warm boots. He likes sneakers, but he already has a lot of them, boots would be the best fit. Thanks for the simple advice.
