Father's Day Gift Guide 2019

Coffee Mug
June 4, 2019

This is your official reminder that Father’s Day is coming up (on June 16th). The countdown is on, and we have presents for Pop in 3, 2, 1…

For the dad who takes a lot of business trips...Help him make it Rains. This water-repellent dopp kit will keep his essentials organized (read: not stuffed into a plastic bag at the bottom of his suitcase). Plus, it’s compact so won’t waste space in his carry-on.

For the dad who cheered at all your track meets...Get him in the running. The Garmin Forerunner 25 is an affordable smartwatch option that can go the distance. It has a built-in GPS, 24/7 heart rate monitoring, and will remind Dad to move if he’s been stationary for too long.

For the dad who can never find his phone…Expand his search area. This wireless charging base is non-slip so his phone will stay put while it juices up. Teaching him emoji etiquette not included.

For the Dad who used to yell at you for hogging the bathroom…Help him celebrate his freedom. Gillette’s new heated razor gives him the feel of a hot towel shave at home. Plus, it’s wireless and waterproof – aka, good for use in the sink or the shower. Luxurious (teen-free) shave experience, achieved.

For the dad who tried taking you to all the National Parks…Cheers to childhood. These Pendleton mugs are inspired by parks like Yellowstone and the Grand Canyon. They’ll keep the memories (and his coffee) fresh. PS: each mug holds eighteen ounces, so they’re big enough for dad hands.

For the dad whose trademark phrase is, ‘It’s just a twenty-minute walk’…Let him walk the talk. Update his dad shoes and go in with your siblings on new sneakers from APL. These are supportive, breathable, and ombre. Because he’s not a regular dad, he’s a cool dad.

For the young Dad…Aka your guy. Father’s Day is about all the Dads in your life — including the one who does the dishes while you put the kids to bed. Here’s a card for him. Teamwork makes the dream work…or just helps keep you semi-sane.

Father's Day card: Thank you for parenting our children in a way that compensates for all my shortcomings.

For the dad who always steals your fries…Get his hands on an air fryer. This one pulls double...err, quadruple duty with roasting, reheating, and dehydrating modes. Ketchup sold separately.

For the dad whose car is messier than your childhood bedroom… Pimp his ride. Get him a portable trash can to keep his car clean and impress your mom. Oh, and throw in this seat-gap filler so he never drops his keys in the Upside Down again. You know, the tiny space between the seat and the door.

For the dad who adds hot sauce to everything…Pepper in some variety. Fuego Box is a Hot Sauce of the Month Club membership that sends new sauces every 30 or 60 days. Dad gets three bottles from mild to hot. FYI, if the years have worn down his taste buds, they offer a ‘Pain Seeker’ box that’s as miserably hot as it sounds.

For the dad who would never say ‘fur baby’ but definitely has one… Get man and his best friend something. This stainless steel water bottle has a lid that turns into a bowl on-the-go. It’s leak-proof, recyclable, and the lid is BPA-free.

For the dad who watches all the cooking competition shows… Get him in it to win it. A sous vide precision cooker will help him cook like he’s being judged by world-class chefs. Or, just by your picky niece. Go, dad, go.

For the Dad who spent the last six months glued to the news…Give him a break. Just kidding. Get him The Mueller Report. Now in paperback for an easy beach read. Gag gift, got.

PS: These are editorially selected, but if you purchase, theSkimm may get something in return. If something’s out of stock, oops, it was there when we published. Thanks.

Dear Dad, I didn't just get you a card. Here's a heated razor from Gillette for the feel of a hot towel shave at home. Together with Gillette x Venus.
