You’ll find gifts for the budding artist, gifts for a hopeful chef (and the go-to grill master), and presents for the fashion enthusiast, too. Below, 100+ gifts for dad that are just as classic, outdoorsy, suave, and likely as tech-obsessed as he is.

Delightful Under-$100 Gifts

A cozy cashmere beanie, a pair of striped Bode socks, and a set of Hawkins New York shearling slips are all small yet mighty gifts he’s sure to enjoy on the regular. You can also never go wrong with a new pair of pajamas—matching ones, of course.

The Gift of Quality Time

There’s no gift better than the gift of time spent together. These picks—a state-of-the-art dominoes set, Westover playing cards, an at-home pizza oven, and a sweet puzzle are all facilitators for new memories, good pictures, and engaging conversations—sans cell phone distractions.

For the Well-Groomed

They always smell great, and take great pride in their skin-care routines—two indications that they’d appreciate an extra treat to add to their growing shelf of products. A sterling silver razor, Aesops skin-care set, and Terre d’Hermès Perfume are key picks to gift dad.

The Fashion Dad

Stylish, in-the-know, and always chillin’, there are some dads who relish in fashionable gifts that are still functional. Give the gift of a forever ‘fit with a Burberry trench coat, a luxe pair of cufflinks, a Bottega Veneta belt, or a Loro Piana crewneck sweater. Take things up a notch with Kapital’s coveted chunky knit and a pair of new Wales Bonner x Adidas sneakers.

The Classic Dad

You can’t wait to hear the dad jokes that flow upon opening these quintessentially “dad” gifts—the ones every savvy father figure needs in his wardrobe: a Barbour jacket for everyday, brown New Balance sneakers, a flannel shirt, classic blue jeans and a new J.Crew tie.

The Chef Dad

They’re always watching the grill, hosting dinner parties, or serving up platters of a newly-tried recipe. If there are a few essentials every dad needs in the kitchen, it’s an OONI pizza oven, stainless steel steak knives, a new cookbook, and a cast iron cookware set. If they need fresh greens, Flamingo Estate’s regenerative box brings the farmer’s market home.

The Fitness Fanatic

A favorite compliment to an activity-loving dad? “You look so young!” The active, swole, and sporty will love the gift of new training gear, such as a pair of bestselling Nike sneakers, a self-cleaning water bottle, or a Theragun, in blue. For the devoted yogi, opt for a new mat and for the runner, gift them a Fitbit watch to track their heart rate, pace, and more.

For Dad’s Desk

Whether he works from home, on the go, or at an office, keeping dad’s desk in order is an act of love. Consider the coveted Serapian leather notebook, which pairs perfectly with a Montblanc pen, or Biagio Barile’s Grigila inlay box for a design-forward option. Another foolproof addition? A wireless charger pod from Native Union for all their desk needs.

Dad on the Go

It’s no secret that the Rimowa suitcase is a cult classic when it comes to travel. Other fan favorites include Metier’s suede weekend bag and Fellow’s sleek water bottle. Apple AirTags will keep his belongings safe, while Away’s toiletry bag will keep other small essentials secure.

Gifts for the Home Video Dad

Films go way beyond movie theaters for him; gift a projector to watch his favorites on the big screen. If he’s looking to enhance his red room, opt for a film scanner to keep the memories alive, or a new camera to capture them in real time.

For the Automobile Enthusiast

If he’s the type to research or even collect cars, a Ralph Lauren Mercedes-Benz Gullwing Coupe sculpture, F1 tell-all book, or even Formula 1 tickets (alongside the keychain) are your best bets in winning holiday gifting this year.

For the Negroni Enthusiast

If they always have a cocktail in hand, or enjoy a whiskey at the end of a busy week, elevate his bar set up with Tom Dixon’s whiskey glass set, bar tools, or elevated coasters from Edie Parker. The ideal cocktail compliment? Dark chocolate whiskey truffles.

For the Dad Who Takes His Coffee Seriously

The early bird gets the worm—and a best-in-class coffee maker. Consider the sought-after Moccamaster coffee maker and a Ralph’s coffee mug to go with it, plus espresso beans from a New York favorite. Gift them Blue Bottle’s instant coffee or Snow Peak’s dripper.

For the Great Outdoors-Loving Dad

If he’s into outdoor pursuits—hiking, hanging, camping, or exploring—he’s sure to love Buck Mason’s blanket-lined deck jacket, Patagonia’s carryall, a pair of Blundstone Chelsea boots and a leather-trimmed wine holder. He’ll be ready for his next excursion in no time.

For the Tech Whiz

For the tech-forward father who loves his sleep but is obsessed with circadian rhythm, consider the Hatch Sunrise clock. Higher Dose’s infrared sauna blanket is a cool way to settle into a relaxing mood. If he’s trying to organize the plethora of cables tucked behind the living room sofa, why not assist him with a tech accessory organizer kit? For the techie always looking to the future, Meta’s glasses come with Meta Ai, which makes calls, sends messages, and captures memories.

For the Design Obsessed

Does he know the difference between mid-century and mid-century modern? If so, a Phaidon book for his well-curated coffee table will surely please. A Loewe candle is perhaps the most underrated gift—one that everyone is sure to enjoy. Or, surprise him with a golden egg from Fourth Street Home, which pairs nicely alongside a butterfly stool.

For the New Dad

Tell them we said congratulations! A new baby is a big, big deal—and celebrations are in order. But first, give the new dad in your life a Coterie baby gift set (complete with diapers), a stylish baby carrier, cozy blanket set, or a plush Brooklinen robe to lounge around in before the little one wakes up—again.

For the Artist

He spends his afternoons in the studio, and his weekend gallery hopping. For the creative dad, inspiration is essential. Help him further embrace his craft with studio must-haves, from watercolor sets to paintbrushes.
