Father’s Day Gifting Guide: 23 Thoughtful Gifts He’d Actually Like (And Use)

Equal parts caring and quirky, dads deserve a round of applause for myriad reasons— wearing a Superman’s cape (metaphorically, of course) and being your rock when the going gets tough, to doling out life-saving advice that often comes in handy when you’d least expect it. But, this Father’s Day, let the tables turn. Take charge to show you care (and have taken notes of what matters) by surprising him with a meaningful gift (or two). P.S.: These gifts are sure to stand the test of time, much like your rapport with him.
