Buying gifts for the women in your life feels like a piece of cake when you compare it to Father's Day shopping. While there are a few classic go-to gifts, like a tie, they can feel stale after a while. While looking for some fresh inspiration, we polled the POPSUGAR office to find out what some of our editorial staff members will be giving their dads. Now we're here to share that knowledge. From sneakers to whiskey sets, there's something for every kind of dad. With Father's Day right around the corner, you don't have a ton of time to waste, so keep reading to shop!
Tretorn Nylite Plus Sneaker
"I grew up wearing Tretorns because of my dad. They're classic, minimal, and probably the most comfortable sneaker in existence. He needs a new pair, and I'm excited to get him the Tretorn Nylite Plus Sneaker ($70)." — India Yaffe, editorial assistant, Shop
Victorinox Swiss Army Classic SD Pocket Knife
"You cannot go wrong with a classic, like this Victorinox Swiss Army Classic SD Pocket Knife ($21). Now when I'm home and I ask my dad to open wine for me, he will be prepared. Plus, that red finish is SEXY. Why did I just refer to something I'm giving my dad as 'sexy'?" — Alaina Demopoulos, editorial assistant, Beauty
Cathy's Concepts Monogram Five-Piece Decanter Set
"My dad is a whiskey connoisseur, so I know he'll appreciate this Cathy's Concepts Monogram Five-Piece Decanter Set ($84). The monogram gives it a personal touch that will look great on his bar." — Macy Williams, assistant editor, Shop
Nike Essential Yoga Mat & Block
"While looking to improve his flexibility and overall health, I can't tell you how many times my dad has mentioned wanting to practice yoga. Hopefully this Nike Essential Yoga Mat & Block ($35) will inspire him to take the plunge. It comes with a block and strap so he can work his way into a great Warrior 2." — IY
Dinner With DiMaggio: Memories of an American Hero
"My dad absolutely loves reading books about his favorite people. Usually that means classic rock musicians, but as a lifelong Yankees fan, I know he'll go crazy for this book about Joe DiMaggio, Dinner With DiMaggio: Memories of an American Hero ($16). Written by the Yankee Clipper's closest friend and confidante, this book shares so many unknown stories about the baseball legend that it's sure to be a new fave." — Joanna Douglas, senior native editorial director
UGG® Ascot Suede Slipper (Men)
"My dad's current slippers have seen better days. He's not one to splurge on luxe items, so I'll do it for him with these UGG® Ascot Suede Slippers ($110). Once he feels how soft these are, it will hard to go back to his basic old pair." — Krista Jones, assistant editor, Shop
Custom Dog Socks
"My dad probably loves our dog more than he loves anything else in this world, which is why custom socks with our dog's face ($24) on them are the best thing I could possibly think to give him." — Hedy Phillips, editor, Voices
Stashlight
"This Stashlight ($30) is so resourceful and handy! A flashlight, bottle opener, and stash holder for the little stuff in one!" – Ricki Rubin, senior merchant
28 Palms Men's Relaxed-Fit 100% Silk Hawaiian Shirt
"My dad is always sporting Hawaiian shirts as he spent several years living there in his younger years. So every year, I buy him a new one to add to his collection. This year, I am opting for the monstera print, like this 28 Palms Men's Relaxed-Fit 100% Silk Hawaiian Shirt ($60), so it is a little more modern." — Lauren Hendrickson, director, Editorial Product Management
Crosley Radio Nomad Turntable
"My dad is going to freak out over this Crosley Radio Nomad Turntable ($200). It won't take up too much space, doesn't look heavy or chunky, and allows him to play his favorite music." — IY
