Throw it back outside once it’s clean and dad will be ready for barbecue after barbecue all summer long!

14. A New Streaming Service
Americans love to watch TV, especially on nice, big TVs. We love going to the movies. But more and more, especially over the past few months, we’ve been enjoying movies in the comfort of our own homes. If your pops is a big movie or TV buff, getting him that streaming service he’s been hesitant to add to his monthly subscriptions is a good call. You could go with Netflix, Amazon Prime or the new Disney+, but our top recommendation is the new HBO Max. For just $15/month, your dad can watch his favorite TV shows and hundreds of movies whenever he likes, making this one of the best gifts for fathers that simply keeps on giving.
Buy: HBO Max Starting at $9.99/Month
15. Anker Wireless Charger
Is your dad the type to dawn over each and every new gadget and gizmo you present to him as if it is the coolest thing he’s seen since sliced bread? Well, gift him the Anker wireless charger. Yeah, he’s got an iPhone or an Android, but he’s calling you up every single day asking you how to do something. “How do I change my brightness? How do I turn off ‘Do Not Disturb’? How do I charge my phone?” Rid that last question forever, because now, he can wirelessly throw this on the charging dock and let that phone juice up, completely wire-free. There’s no doubt that he’s going to be impressed, so get giftin’.
16. Mofado Crystal Whiskey Glasses
Both elegant and practical, this is the type of drinkware your dad needs sitting on his bar. These distinctive whiskey glasses have a striking look to them, made from ultra-clear lead-free crystal that emphasizes clarity and detail; you’ll definitely notice the legs of a refined whiskey.

These inexpensive tees are the best T-shirts you can buy. How do we know that? Well, we’ve tested them. The shape, softness and color have all stayed the same wash after wash after wash.

20. Therabody Mini Massage Gun
The SPY team loves massage guns, and Theragun is the gold standard of percussive massagers. Recently, Theragun rebranded as Therabody and released a new generation of massagers. In our experience, some massage guns can actually be too intense for the average customer, which is why the Therabody Mini is the perfect gift for older recipients. This premium massage gun is easy to use and lets anyone enjoy a deep tissue massage in their own home. Not only is this one of the top tech gifts of last year, but it’s also a perfect gift idea for dads.
21. Vuori Sunday Performance Jogger
Yeah, Vuori’s Sunday Performance Joggers might be a little bit pricy for a pair of sweatpants — but holy hell, they’re worth it. We’ll go as far as to call these joggers luxurious. They’re comfortable, durable and tremendously good-looking whether your dad is sitting on the couch or running errands. They don’t even come close to as sloppy as dad’s old sweats he’s been rocking since his college days. Do him a favor — give those to God and get him these as one of the best gifts for dad in 2022. He’ll truly thank you.

What’s papa cookin’? Whatever it is, it smells good. But, there’s only one issue: he keeps spilling sauce on his shirt as he’s cooking.

With this one from Amazon, dad can place all of his spoons in the pockets provided in the front and cover his clothes at the same time. How neat is that?

24. Jackery Explorer Portable Power Stations
Gift your dad the ability to never run out of power again. We recently tested and reviewed the Jackery Explorer 1500 Portable Power Station, and it’s a mighty impressive power station. At this point, consider us obsessed with this generator. It has three different ways of charging which are solar, through an AC power outlet or via car, meaning dad can even take this on the road. Our favorite model has a 1488 Wh capacity, which is absolutely insane, and can charge up to seven different appliances at the same time. Bonkers. However, even the most affordable 160W option will still be super handy in an emergency.

25. Levi’s Trucker Jacket
Pops can keep it cool and casual in this stylish piece of outerwear that’s just young enough for any dad to pull off without looking like he’s trying too hard.

Buy: Levi's Trucker Jacket $89.50
26. Fujifilm Instax Mini 11 Instant Camera
We used to be huge Polaroid fans, but up until recently, we’ve become totally obsessed with Fujifilm’s line of instant cameras.
The Instax Mini 11 is Fujifilm’s most recent instant camera capturing moments in a cute-colored body your dad will enjoy forever. Photos develop a ton faster than anything Polaroid is making, too. Expect a fully-developed Fujifilm snapshot in just a minute, while Polaroid will take you over 10. Plus, the camera itself and film are way cheaper than Polaroid.
Sure, dad might love the Polaroid name, but it’s time to show him that old-school tricks deserve a little bit of modernity with Fujifilm.

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you recently learned that Apple released their 3rd Gen Apple AirPods and it’s safe to say we’re obsessed.

Additionally, they’re built with a new contoured design so papa won’t complain about any discomfort.

A Sonos is a must-have dad gadget for a few reasons. The sound quality is superb but more importantly, the ease of use means your dad won’t be calling you with tech questions all the time. It’s got Amazon Alexa built right in which might freak out your parents at first, but after a while, they’ll love the convenience. The setup takes a few minutes and all it takes is a WiFi connection to stream their favorite music easily. This speaker from Sonos is durable and battery-powered so they can bring it anywhere with them and enjoy up to 10 hours of continuous play time. It’s also made to last, so an accidental knock off the table shouldn’t take it out of commission.
30. Diplomatico Rum Reserva Exclusiva
Rum is on its way back. For whatever reason, rum hasn’t hit the same way it used to, but brands like Diplomatico are proving rum is still packed with flavor and will spice up any Coca-Cola can dad is sipping from. Our copy editor James Schiff has been obsessed with this bottle as of recent whether he’s sipping it straight or mixing it up into a cocktail and he’s sure your dad will love it, too.

33. Herschel Novel Duffel Bag
Work, travel or the gym, duffel bags come in handy for many things, and if there’s anything SPY editors love, it’s a good travel bag. And no one constructs a better weekender for the price than Herschel Supply Co. The Canadian manufacturer has an insane collection of bags to choose from, but we strongly recommend the Novel Duffel Bag. It’s light and spacious, offering just enough room to store a weekend’s worth of clothing, while also housing a shoe compartment to carry a pair of sneakers or wingtips. Tough tech fabric makes up most of the Novel’s construction, guaranteeing durability and long-term use. Herschel also sells it in over 37 colors; Raven Crosshatch (pictured below) and Woodland Camo are some of our favorites.

In comes Sonic Editions, the only way limited edition fine art photographs are readily available to the public. From iconic photos of rockstars to snapshots behind the scenes of your favorite movies to photos from the first-ever 1969 Moon Landing, these prints were never available for public purchase until now — and they’ll look great in dad’s posession.

39. UGG Ascot Slipper

50. Audio-Technica Fully Automatic Turntable
Let dad relive his glory days and dust off that record collection with a brand new record player with Bluetooth capabilities.

Considering it’s Bluetooth, the record player doesn’t have a speaker, but pairing it to your dad’s JBL or Amazon Echo Dot is potentially the easiest thing he’ll do all year long. Looking for a record to go along with it? We suggest checking Amazon, Urban Outfitters, FYE, Target and VNYL (a surprise vinyl record subscription service) for oldies and modern picks alike.
