Shopping for dads can be a pain at times. While we love the fatherly figures in our lives, picking out something that's both thoughtful and personal can be tricky. Sure, we'd love to buy them all a fancy boat or the most luxury tech, but there are a few more attainable options out there. Like a magnetic tool bracelet or the perfect gold accessory for his weekend outing
Don't stress over a gift for Dad anymore -we've done the sourcing for you and created a top-tier list of gifting options that work for anyone. If you're looking to surprise Dad, these might just bring a smile to his face (along with a patented Dad Joke).
This Magnetic Pickup Tool has Multiple Uses
This telescope magnet pickup tool is one of the best gifts you can get a person who considers themself to be crafty. It comes with a bright LED light on top and an extendable neck. This item has multiple uses, which means it'll come in handy if you’re boating, fishing, plumbing, camping, or doing something else around the house.
This Window Defogging Sponge Is Better Than Your Jacket Sleeve
Fogged up windshields and side mirrors are more than just an annoyance, they're dangerous for visibility when driving. Nix yours with this $5 window defogging sponge that works so much better than your jacket sleeve. It's also great for general cleaning of your windshield, I know for certain mine is filthy most of the time, so I'm really looking forward to getting this package delivered.
These Heavy Duty Storage Straps Keep Things Organized
Think of these heavy-duty storage straps as a cord keeper for your garage-bound goods like hoses, jumper cables, and extension cords. The weather-proof straps easily contain and organize everything from garage to boat items since they can hold up to 50 pounds each. You'll get a range of sizes in this pack of six straps for all kinds of jobs.
This Professional Nail Clipper Set Cuts Even the Thickest Nails
We currently have a handful of inferior nail clippers floating around the house, but none cut half as well as this nail clipper set. The pro-grade clippers can shear through even the thickest toenails, helping prevent painful ingrown nails. Their heavy construction, precision cut, and ergonomic design gives you an excellent grip. Life's too short for terrible nail clippers!
These $20 AirPods Substitutes Are an Incredible Value
I found these earbuds in an article on our own site, and at around $20, I had to give them a shot. I haven't used my $150 AirPods since. These are light, comfortable, seal your ear to block out noise, have insanely good battery life, and (my favorite) you can adjust the volume via their touch controls. You can't do that on AirPods! The only downside is that the case isn't quite as satisfying to play with as the AirPods' is, but at $20, it's a sacrifice I'd make again and again.
Every Car Should Include This Car-Bage Can
Finally, a place to put every last scrap of garbage in your car (that's not those hidden pockets in the door — you know what I'm talking about). Lusso's car-bage cans hold up to 2.5 gallons of trash (dry, wet, or otherwise), and it straps anywhere you need in the car, so you'll never be at a loss for where to stuff that empty Tim Horton's cup as you make room for a new one.
This Pro-Strength Flashlight is the Last One We'll Need
We got this flashlight for my Dad, and he loves it. Built with a solid aluminum machined housing, this ultra-powerful LED flashlight features a focusing mechanism that lets you make your beam as wide or focused as possible, with a feel much like focusing a high-end DSLR lens. We like the fact that it's powered by AA batteries, rather than a short-life internal battery, it's small enough to fit pretty much anywhere, and inexpensive enough to grab one for each room of your house.
This Tiny Emergency Tool Belongs In Every Car
This tiny-but-mighty car escape tool was originally developed for first responders, but should should probably come with every new car purchase. The resqme is small enough to fit on your keychain, with a spring-loaded escape hammer that can easily break through any car window, and an ultra-sharp razor blade that can slice quickly through a jammed seatbelt. Best of all, you can typically nab a 2-pack for under $20.
These are Simply the Best Pillows on Amazon
These are amazing! The box they arrived in was small and they were wrapped really tightly — a small inconvenience and totally worth it. The pillows looked like pancakes at first, but they fluffed up a bit in a few hours. (Pro tip: Stand them upright to get them to fluff faster.) The pillows aren't super plushy or thick, but they are soft and give just enough support. You can squeeze them for more cushiness if you want it. The best part is that they really are cooler than most. All pillows will get warm eventually from body heat, but these ones stay cool a lot longer than any others that I've tried (and I've tried a lot of them). I would buy these again in a heartbeat, they're great. - Carrie G.
The Most Popular Partner Friendly Reading Light

Don't Be Caught Without a Golf Umbrella
Golf is an outdoor sport, and no matter how much you prepare, you’re going to get caught in the rain on the golf course sooner or later. Some players even prefer playing in the rain because courses tend to be wide open and you can hold any green. Either way, you need a reliable golf umbrella like this one. Choose your size and color, and never fear a chance of showers on your golf day again.
This Gadget Expands Small Cup Holders to Fit Large Bottles
Finally, there is an easy solution to fitting your oversized beverage container in your car. If you own a large water bottle or to-go cup, this expander will enhance your daily drive. It fits securely into your car's existing cup holder, allowing you to carry larger drink containers ranging from 16 to 40 ounces.
This Magnetic Wristband Belongs in Your Toolkit
One of the top reasons why this magnetic wristband belongs in your toolkit is that it simplifies the process of doing handy-work around the house. Since it’s magnetic, different tools will automatically stick to it without effort. Screws, nuts, and bolts will stick to it as well.

Perfect Your Stroke On The Perfect Practice Putting Mat
The Perfect Practice putting mat is an easy way to level up your putting practice. I love that it has two holes, so you can putt at the smaller hole to sharpen precision or use the regulation-sized hole to replicate on-course putting. The velvety mat is lined with distances and tracks to the hole, so if your putts fall offline, you get visual feedback on where, and which direction, your miss bias is. The ball return track is a convenient bonus as well.
