Shopping for fathers day gifts has long been heralded as a difficult, and dare we say it, unpleasant process. We used to feel the same way, but not any longer.

We think we’ve done a pretty decent job finding neat stuff for the new dad, experienced dad, or even grandpa! When it comes to a great Father’s Day gift idea, we’ve got that mess handled.
Have a look at our Father’s Day gift guide, and get ready to give the perfect gift to dear old dad in 2021.
The Best Gifts For Father’s Day
1. Shiatsu Massager
Oh yeah, this one’s a winner if your outdoorsy dad is an active guy. Who doesn’t want to sit on the sofa and watch their fave shows accompanied by a relaxing massage? This one adjusts to work on feet, calves, the back, neck, and shoulders for all-over relaxation.
2. Star Wars Tees
If he loves the Star Wars movie franchise, these neat t-shirts will definitely make him smile. There are thirteen designs to choose from, giving you plenty of options to pick the one you think best suits him. We just picked Yoda because, well, Yoda. Plus puns.
3. Around the World Beer Bucket
We love the adventure of sampling beers from around the world, especially if there are a few thrown in that you may not be able to find so easily around these parts. We’re betting your dad feels the same.
Dad will get all the snacks he could want in this bucket and unique beers from all over the world to go with them. Hence the name.

4. Sonos Smart Speaker
If your dad already has a smart speaker he thinks he loves, we’re gonna go ahead and say he’ll love this one more. The sound is unbelievable, and it’s easy to pair with other Sonos speakers over Wi-Fi, even in different rooms. If he wants a flexible sound system that performs like larger bookshelf speakers, this one will fit the bill.
5. Smart Light Bulbs
Now that you’ve gotten his audio situation squared away, he needs great lighting to complete the mood around the homestead. Works with Siri, echo, echo dot, or google home assistant to light up any room just how he wants it from wherever he is. He can change the color, dim the lights, or even set them with a timer.
6. Nomad Organizer
This is such a classy way to keep everything in its place and ready to go when he is! Not only will it fit his iPad, but it also has specialized slots for his phone, credit cards or business cards, charger, pens, and a zippered pocket to keep cash stashed securely.
It comes in four classic colors and is handmade from quality full-grain vegetable-tanned leather. A carry strap is included so he can convert it into a messenger bag or backpack.
7. Countertop Blender
Ninja may not be the OG of blenders, but it certainly is the best. This one easily crushes ice, whips up creamy smoothies, emulsifies dressings, and we’ve heard you can make a pretty mean frozen margarita with it. Perfect for June afternoons on the back deck, no?
8. Tame To Insane Hot Sauce Box
For the dad who likes things on the spicy side! Give him the gift of exciting new sauces to add some heat to his barbeque, eggs, pizza, or whatever floats his boat. Plus, you can dare him to try the tame-to-insane hot sauce challenge!
9. Indoor/Outdoor Electric Grill
This is a great grill for the dad who loves to cook al fresco but doesn’t have a ton of space. It’s all-electric and prepares plenty of food for everyone.
We love that the stand is removable, allowing him to bring it on in when the weather’s bad or transporting it for tailgating situations where flames may not be a great idea.
10. Super Dad Chocolates
Is your dad a chocoholic? If not, he may be after you send him this box of chocolates. Everything in the box is handmade, and he’ll find an array of chocolate-covered goodies, including turtles, barks, caramels, mini-pretzels, dipped candied fruit, and much more. They’re so unique and look so cool- we think they’re just begging to be eaten.
11. World’s Strongest Coffee
If he likes his hot sauce intense, chances are, he’ll enjoy his coffee the same way. Death Wish coffee company has created a unique gift idea touted as the world’s strongest cuppa. We’ve never tried it, but based on what everyone out there on Amazon says, its reputation is merited.
12. HydroFlask Travel Mug
Dad’s trusty hydroflask won’t let him down. It delivers hot coffee for up to six hours and cold water up to twenty-four. We think the gift of a bag of the world’s strongest coffee along with an insulated mug to keep it hot nearly all day is perfect for those dads who work in an office with sub-par coffee. Which, let’s face it, is a lot of offices.
13. Fine Art
Help dad spruce up his place this year! Minted carries limited edition fine art prints and curated collections of works from independent artists, so you know you’ll be giving him something completely original. If there’s something specific you have in mind, you can even commission an artist to create a personalized father’s day gift just for him.
14. Poker Chip Set
If your dad doesn’t do poker nights at least once a month, now is the time to start. And you should be his first invite. This set includes two decks of playing cards, 500 chips, big blind, little blind, and dealer buttons. It’s got everything he’ll need to get his game on all packed beautifully into an aluminum case for storage. Start practicing your poker face now.
15. Cool Dad Socks
Blue Q has a huge selection of awesome socks for all occasions, so it’s no surprise they have a few cute designs just for dad. We thought these colors were really neat, and that little thumbs-up guy is pretty much everyone’s dad. If your dad digs novelty socks, these will get you hugs.
16. RFID Luxury Luxury Wallet
Harber London is known for gorgeous luxe leather products, and their wallets are among them. These are handmade by Italian artisans from full-grain vegetable-tanned cowhide and feature RFID technology to keep his credit cards safe from scanners.
They come in plenty of colors and styles to fit his needs.
17. Fancy Grooming Products
Masculine but not overpowering, the products that Aesop makes stay sensuous and warm all day. Plus, he’s gonna love what it does to his skin!
They carry goodies like shaving cream, deodorant, or mouthwash to keep him dapper and smelling fantastic. You may have to help him keep the ladies at bay.
18. Grand Canyon Whiskey Glasses
A seriously cool whiskey gift! These are so sophisticated and artistic, and we’re sure he’ll love to add them to his collection of fancy cocktail glasses! Crafted to feature the grand canyon within the glass, they’re made from lead-free crystal and come in a set of four, so everyone can propose a toast to the best guy ever!
19. Theragun Mini Massage Gun
If your dad is athletic, a gift that supports his healthy habits is always a great idea! This massage gun isn’t your ordinary massager- it utilizes percussive therapy to provide maximum muscle healing after tough workouts.
Percussive therapy is commonly used by trainers, athletes, and physical therapists, and the Theragun line has an amazing reputation.
20. Heated Razor
Why didn’t someone come up with this sooner? Maybe someone has, and we just missed it until now, but MAN, is this a great idea! It charges wirelessly, is completely waterproof for use in the shower and at the sink, and features a design that keeps close contact (but not too close) with the skin around hard-to-reach spaces for the closest shave ever. Bravo.
21. Fitness & Activity Tracker
The newest iteration of the Fitbit collection is another great gift for the guy who stays active. If he doesn’t already have one, he’ll love it. If he does, he’ll love the upgrade to the 4.
It’ll keep track of his miles running, walking, or swimming, his sleep cycles, and heart rate as well as play his fave tune on his Bluetooth earbuds to keep him motivated and moving. He’ll also get texts and calls from you, his favorite child. It’s the gift that keeps on giving.
22. Stainless Water Bottle
Let’s just suppose that your dad enjoys partaking of frosty adult beverages while he’s out camping or tailgating. If that’s the case, he’ll need the next level of stainless travel bottles. Enter: the Yeti Rambler. It’ll hold 26 ounces and keep whatever wets his whistle cold literally all day. More than one if there’s ice involved.
If he’d rather just use it for coffee, it’ll keep his hot drink hot all day, too.
23. UGG Slippers
We have it on good dad-authority that these are the best slippers you’ll ever wear, hands down. It’s a good thing they’re great for indoor and outdoor wear because with the plushy wool lining, he may not want to take them off at all. We hear the moccasins are also ridiculously awesome, so you’ve got plenty of color and style choices to work with.
24. Tabletop Cornhole
Like regular cornhole, only waaaay cuter! This tabletop cornhole set would be cool pretty much anywhere, but we’re thinking it’s just the thing for a yucky, rainy day. Unless he’s got some crazy extra space to work with, full-sized cornhole just doesn’t work out so well inside.
It’s handmade in Ohio, the state that put cornhole on the map, and includes the board with felt feet, 8 mini bean-bags (four of each color), peg score-keepers, and launchers.
Make Your Father’s Day The Favorite This Year
You win some, and you lose some. That’s just the way it goes, and the same rule applies to thoughtful gift-giving. We all have our dud moments, but not this year. We’re confident this year’s father’s day will be one for the record books.
So enjoy the big smiles, hugs, and probably a dad joke or two thrown in for good measure. Which is awesome. Because let’s face it, dad jokes are the best jokes.
