Father's Day is this Sunday, and if you still haven't found Dad the perfect gift, I'm sure you're feeling the stress. He's not exactly the easiest person to shop for. As a shopping writer, I spend 8+ hours a day researching gifts, and even sometimes, I feel stumped trying to figure out exactly what my dad would want.
So, this time, I went straight to the source. After asking the various men in my life, from my father-in-law to my friends and neighbors, what they would appreciate receiving for Father's Day, they said they would be impressed with these 15 options. (And no, they would have never guessed they were last-minute buys from Amazon.)

Ugg Ascot Slipper
AMAZON
These stylish and comfy Ascot Slippers are a welcome annual gift my husband asks for, no matter the holiday. He's on his third pair right now, and that's only because he literally has worn them to do everything, from gardening projects to walking the dogs. They're the only slippers he'll wear now, and he even has one pair for outdoor activities and one for inside. He loves how sleek the leather looks and how soft the sheepskin lining feels—he often collects compliments on them.
ThermoPro Wireless Meat Thermometer
AMAZON
Accuracy is essential when preparing meats on the grill, and these probes can monitor two different types of meats or different sections of one big slab. It has an external thermometer you can read, but the Bluetooth function is a game changer. Dad can still keep a close eye on the grill, even when he's stepped away.
Terrible Maps
AMAZON
You can't go wrong with humor, and Terrible Maps is a hilarious take on cartography. What originally started as a widely popular social media account is now a book of travel humor that Dad will want to share with everyone.
David Archy Pajamas Set
AMAZON
Comfort is always a welcome gift, and what better way to show your father figure some love than with a super cozy matching set he can enjoy year-round? Unlike some fashion-oriented gifts, this one will fit the bill for the special guy in your life, whether he leans toward style or sticks with classic attire. The cotton-spandex blend material is breathable, stretchy, and soft to the touch.
Nespresso Vertuo Plus Deluxe Coffee and Espresso Maker by De'Longhi
AMAZON
There's simply no better way to level up Dad's morning brew than with this luxe coffee and espresso maker. The minimalist design is easy to use and won't take up too much counter space. Plus, he can make plenty of different beverages using the Nespresso pods and one-button push function.
