This Father’s Day has snuck up on me and I’m sure it has on a few of you also. On June 17th, 2018 we will spoil the special men in our lives with gifts, and celebrate them in the form of some sort of activity, such as: a bbq, a day at the beach, a nice dinner, or maybe a weekend out on the lake. 

Whether you’re looking for your own dad or for the father of your children, I’ve put together 5 last minute gift ideas for that special man in your life!

#1 Cologne

You can never go wrong with cologne. Whether he’s running out of the one he typically uses or you just want to surprise him with a new fragrance, cologne is never a bad idea.

#2 Massage certificate 

Surprise him with a massage! They might not want to admit it at times (just like getting pedicures), but every man usually enjoys getting a massage and being pampered a little bit. 

#3 Workout Outfit

Well, this option might not be for every dad, especially if they don’t workout. My husband though loves when I buy him new Lululemon or Under Armour workout shirts. He also likes a new pair of running shoes (usually Nike). 

#4 Golf Shirts

It doesn’t matter if your dad is a great golfer or not, they usually tend to golf anyways. It’s their time to socialize with buddies and drink beer. Kind of like women when we go shopping. 

You can NEVER go wrong with a nice, new collard golf shirt. It needs to keep them cool and has to be a light color. This is a hit with both my dad and husband. Some of their favorite brands range anywhere from Under Armor, Lululemon, to Greg Norman, Travis Matthews, and Hugo Boss.

While I was looking around online for hubby, I also found this fun t-shirt by Travis Matthews!

#5 Wallet

This is a gift that will never go out of style. Men hate (at least mine does) having anything stick out of their pockets. A nice, slim wallet is a great gift for the dad who just hates the bulging wallet look.

Another good alternative to a bulky wallet is a card holder that sticks to the back of their phone. It’s a great accessory for a night on the town when they only need a card, their ID, and some cash. You can always find some of these on Amazon.

Hope this helps you on your search for the perfect Father’s Day gift!
