What do dads actually like? Is a toolbox really on his Father’s Day wish list? Do they even use the presents you get them? These are all valid questions, my friend! While I don’t have all the answers (and agree that buying gifts for parents can be a minefield), I do have tons of trusty product recs for any and every type of dad. So, keep scrolling for the 59 best dad gifts from daughters!

Below, you’ll find thoughtful, functional, and high-quality gifts for dads that are totally worth your hard-earned money, according to glowing customer reviews. The list includes cool tech gadgets, comfy sneakers, cozy PJs, yummy snacks, the best-smelling candles, and so much more—I mean, we’ve even got slime on the list! (The alcohol-themed adult version, of course.) So there’s no need to worry about searching the internet high and low to find the perfect gift. Instead, grab any of the extraordinary gifts for men below, and you’ll become his fave daughter (although I’m sure you already are).
