Most Dads are known for their no-nonsense, practical approach to gifts. They like gifts to have a use, not just take up space. I enjoy sharing gift ideas that you can get inspiration from, or make a purchase immediately to help free up your time. Here are six practical gift ideas for all the Dads on your list.
Practical Gift Ideas for Dads
Gift One: Tari Hot Sauces: The Llama Box Set:
Tari Sauces, known for their delightfully bold Peruvian-inspired sauces, offers five flavor options, perfect for celebrating Dads Day and anytime your food needs a kick of flavor. Check out the flavors in the Llama Box (or seasonal bag) five-sauce set.
Zesty Verde: Fresh, herbal notes from huacatay (Andean mint) and a hint of tang from ají amarillo pepper create the perfect balance of brightness and spice. With medium heat and a creamy texture, Zesty Verde is ideal for seafood, grilled chicken, tacos, and roasted veggies- perfect for any dish that needs a pop of flavor.
Tropical Kick: This sweeter, chunkier sauce combines rocoto peppers and onion for a fruity flavor with a satisfying kick of heat. It’s perfect for pulled meats, tacos, grilled fish, or as a topping for quesadillas, adding vibrant color and texture to any meal.
Smoky Heat: The spiciest in the lineup, Smoky Heat brings intense flavor from rocoto peppers and a touch of herbaceous heat. It’s a bold addition to steaks, chicken wings, and even breakfast dishes like egg sandwiches or avocado toast, ideal for those who crave adventurous, robust flavors.
These new offerings join their beloved Tari Aji Amarillo and Tari Rocoto Pepper sauces, expanding their range to suit every palate and occasion. My husband loves hot sauces, so I know he is going to love this set! If you have a Dad on your list who loves hot sauces too, shop Tari.com for a tasty gift.
Gift Two: “Dad: The Man.The Myth.The Legend.” Soundwave Sculpture by Clia Creations:
If you're looking for something meaningful, personal, and completely unexpected for Father's Day, this is it. This handcrafted piece turns the phrase “Dad: The Man. The Myth. The Legend.” into a custom soundwave sculpture made from layered wood. The unique wood pieces spoke to me because my husband is a craftsman who knows about the different species of wood and appreciates custom wood pieces.
Each piece starts with a real audio recording that the artist personally captures and turns into wall-worthy art. It’s bold, meaningful, and always unexpected. This is the kind of gift Dad never sees coming but will proudly hang and talk about for years. Shop Soundwaves and all Clia Creations and discover your next perfect piece of art.
Gift Three: Plexus Hydrate® Blueberry Acai:
For all the Dads who are outside in the heat, golfing, biking, gardening, or working. If they sweat, they need to hydrate, so why not fuel up from the inside out with this hydration super force and help Dad drink more water reach his daily intake goals?
The tasty Blueberry Acai has a blend of electrolytes, antioxidants, and minerals, plus added coconut water, aloe vera, and vitamin C. It helps replenish electrolytes lost through daily activity.
Whether Dads are powering through a workout or getting through a busy day, this clean formula supports optimal hydration, muscle function, immune health, and overall wellness, all without added sugar or artificial ingredients. I love this flavor and how much better I feel after drinking a serving, so I’m hopeful my guy will like it too. Shop Plexus for hydrate and other wellness products.
Gift Four: EverGrace: Luxe Chinchilla Faux Fur Throw Blanket:
For every dad who loves a good nap on the sofa or the feel of a weighty blanket, this one is for them. Evergrace has mastered the art of "cozy luxury" through soft-touch textures and effortless layering. Their approach transforms everyday spaces into havens of tactile pleasure without sacrificing style in your home.
The Luxe Chinchilla Faux Fur Throw Blanket comes in two sizes, 50x60 Inches and 60x80 Inches, and is made from 100% polyester. The front is 1000 GSM premium faux fur, back is 220 GSM silky velvet. EverGrace blankets and throws are OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certified, free from 400+ harmful substances.
The remarkable thickness and weight ensure a secure feel, making you enjoy a deep sleep and keeping Dad nice and cozy, no matter the weather. Shop the EverGrace for cozy luxury.
Gift Five: Men’s Fragrance Trio from Demeter Fragrance Library:
If you’re looking for simple, subtle, singular scents, you are in the right place with Demeter. I had the privilege of experiencing their special Mother’s Day trio of scents last year and fell in love with this brand, so I happily agreed to try and share their men’s trio since my husband adores simple scents and it might be a perfect gift option for you as well. Here are the scent profiles.
Mahogany: A deep, rich, full-bodied exotic wood scent, with a touch of spice. Pretty much what a man should smell like.
Gin & Tonic: A light, crisp fragrance that is right just about anytime and anywhere. Our Gin & Tonic is an essential refreshment from the heat, whether tropical or otherwise - strong, sweet, with a deep juniper finish and citrus twist.
Dirt: Their most emblematic fragrance, Demeter's Dirt was made to smell exactly like the dirt from the fields around the Pennsylvania family farm belonging to our founding perfumer. We think of this as April 10th, when the plowing begins in the Northeast U.S. - the beautiful scent of turned earth with a touch of last season's corn stalks.
I really like the Gin & Tonic scent best, but all of them have great qualities. Shop this trio Demeter cologne sprays here.
Gift Six: Iris & Cole European Skincare for Men:
Should dads take care of their skin? A resounding yes! Since they don't always do it, and skincare is a mystery to many men (my hubby included), this is one of those gifts they would never ask for, but is highly practical.
All of Iris & Cole products are independently lab-verified to meet the strictest EU skincare standards—a level of safety and quality far beyond U.S. regulations.
Blue Moon Balm: A moisturizer for evening with a high-powered blend of blue tansy, natural butters, and targeted oils.
ELXR Facial Serum: Do-it-all serum that penetrates deeply to nourish the skin, keeping it looking sharp, youthful, and resilient.
Right now, for Father's Day, customers can get 30% OFF all products, including their most popular seller, the All You Need Bundle: Our flagship Blue Moon Balm and EXLR Facial Serum.
Both of these products smell amazing. They have a clean, almost tropical, aquatic scent profile that won’t interfere with other scents Dad may like to wear.
Head over to Iris & Cole to discover men’s skincare, made simple.
As always, I hope my gift ideas help make your life a little bit easier, because we all know shopping for Dads can be a challenge. Wishing all the Dads in yor life a very happy day.
