What on earth do you get the dad who already has everything (including, yes, a drawer full of socks)?Father’s Day Is Fast Approaching – here are some ideas, but remember to wrap that gift in a hug!

🎁 The Usual Suspects…

There’s always the personalised leather wallet or key holder, or maybe even a custom photo book… but let’s be honest—he knows what you look like.  Or how about the ever-cozy route:
High-quality slippers or a luxurious robe—because comfort never goes out of style.

And if you’re feeling cheeky, take a peek at the outrageously expensive just for giggles. (A gold-plated BBQ, anyone?)

📱 Tech Toys & Clever Gadgets

• For the dad who still loses his keys:  Bluetooth tracker (like Tile or AirTag) – for keys, wallets, luggage, and sanity.

• Digital photo frame – preloaded with family pics (maybe include a few funny ones).

• Smart mug (like Ember) – because his coffee should stay hot as long as his opinions do.

• Teslas might be going cheap (allegedly), but let’s start smaller, shall we?

🍷 For the Thrill Seeker Dad!

Got a dad who’s itching for a new hobby?

• Whisky or wine tasting set – complete with curated bottles and a tasting guide.

• Beer brewing kit – full of fun (and foam), but he’ll need some kitchen real estate.

• Gardening kit or quirky plant – perfect if he loves pottering outdoors.

We could mention our very own $30 Kneepal (hint, hint), but we won’t mention our $30 Kneepal because for sure he already has one, has had it for years. No? Today’s your lucky day!

🧰 Father’s Day Gift for the over 50’s -try the Thoughtful & Personal Touch

• How about a Personalised tool belt – Etsy has some cracking options (get in early!).

• Vinyl record player + classic albums – for the dad who still swears music sounded better back then.
  (And who knows? He might be spinning records in Spain on his next holiday.)

🚗 Adventures & Experiences

Some dads prefer memories over things, so how about:

• Driving experience day – from classic cars to 4×4 mud-flinging madness.

• Cookery or BBQ class – especially if he’s the “King of the Grill.”

• Theatre or concert tickets – for a night out that’s actually exciting.

🧘‍♂️ Health, Wellness & Just a Bit of Peace

Let’s not forget the knees (the body’s wheels!):

• Massage gun or spa voucher – because even legends get stiff joints.

• Fitness tracker – for active dads or those eyeing a “dad-bod transformation.”

• Subscription to Calm or Audible – for mental peace… or dad naps.
