With Father’s Day only a few weeks away (as a reminder, this year it’s Sunday, June 21) and some shipping times still affected by the coronavirus, the definition of last-minute is even earlier than usual this year. But there’s still just enough time to sneak in some great last-minute Father’s Day gifts. Maybe your dad needs something to help him get back in shape after months of isolating at home. Maybe his T-shirts, towels, or dopp kit could use an upgrade. Or maybe what he really needs is a way to host socially distant movie nights in his backyard. To help you find the right gift for your dad (and quickly), we found the best last-minute Father’s Day gifts for all kinds of dads — all of which will get to him in time for the big day.
For the dad who listens to podcasts in the shower
A splashproof Bluetooth speaker that’ll play him the news while he shampoos.
For the new dad with no time to shower
A 20-pack of Ursa Major face wipes that will make him feel refreshed, while exfoliating and hydrating his skin.
For the dad who dries off in style
Whether they’re used at the beach, pool, or just out of the bath, striped Turkish towels make drying off look good. Plus they’re compact and easy to store in both a cramped linen closet or beach bag.
For the birder dad who’s always yelling at squirrels
A bird feeder designed to thwart his worst enemies.
For the dad who runs marathons
This dry bag will help him store all of his wet gear after a race without getting the rest of his belongings soggy. Ultramarathoner Michael Wardian says it’s the best gift he’s ever received.
For the dad who needs a little workout motivation
Obé Fitness offers thousands of on-demand and live weekly classes across multiple practices, including yoga, pilates, cardio boxing, HIIT, and more. Each class is 28 minutes long and requires no equipment beyond a mat.
For the dad who wants to make pickles
He’ll appreciate this handy fermentation kit from our recent guide to fermenting. It comes recommended by Michael Perrine, founder of rejuvenation and detox clinic Vitality NYC.
For the dad who can never find his charger
This wireless charger, which doubles as a hands-free phone stand, is hard to lose (especially if given a dedicated spot on his desk or nightstand) and will keep Dad’s phone from dying.
For the dad who needs new basics
For the adoptive dog dad
Just like a human DNA test but for dogs, Embark helps owners of adopted pups find out whether they’re a Corgipoo, a Beaglier, or a Border Chow.
