Father’s Day is just around the corner. Do you have a gift for the man in your life? Or, perhaps you still need to grab a Father’s Day gift for your own old man. Stop giving him plaid ties and another box of golf tees (especially if he says he golfs more than he actually golfs), and get Dad a gift he actually needs. Even if he says he doesn’t need anything.
Of course, you could always go old school and slap a painted footprint on a canvas and call that a gift, which I’m sure he would appreciate. But you already did that for Easter, or Christmas, or some other holiday or every other holiday. He only has so much desk space, so save it for another holiday.
Instead, I gathered the five best gifts for Dad that he won’t admit he needs, and compiled a Father’s Day Gift Guide. And, I included easy shopping lists, in case you’re reading this last minute.
Get Dad What He Needs
1. Tile Mate Key Finder – I was gifted a Tile for Christmas a few years back and it has saved my sanity. Men often don’t want to admit they need help, but we all lose our keys. Or, god forbid, our wallet. The Tile Mate is great because it attaches to your keychain or slides into your wallet, and can be triggered from your phone. The best part, it can also be used to find your phone. Double win.
2. Car Wash Membership – I briefed this in my Mother’s Day Gift Guide, but it still rings true. No matter how much a man claims to enjoy washing his car, you can’t beat convenience with a sparkling hood. A flash pass or even a single detail will mean more than the expected bucket of car wash supplies.
3. Sticky Cellphone Wallet – for a while, these were super popular (like when the pop-socket first came out), and everyone was handing them out free to market their business. But now that the novelty’s worn off, they’re harder to find in swag bags. So here’s a great splurge for a sticky wallet with RFID blocker sleeve, that stretches to include the essential cards, and even cash or a car key. And, it also comes with a some accessories.

4. Socks and Underwear – no man will ever admit he needs these, but he does. Check his drawers, literally, and see what he’s running low on. Toss the ones with holes so he has no choice but to accept the new ones. It’s not lame, holy socks are.

5. Body Wash – let’s face it, when he’s off doing the honey-do list, the dad bod gets sweaty. Most men could not care less about their body wash, and grab the cheapest bar of soap on the shelf. Treat him to something better, and get a laugh out while you’re at it.
