The Top 5 Father’s Day Gifts at a Glance

What Is the Most Popular Gift on Father’s Day?

Everyone’s dad, father figure, or top-tier dude in their life is different, which means not all Father’s Day gifts are created equal. However, there are some popular presents that manage to appear year after year.

In 2022, RetailMeNot reported that some of the common Father’s Day gifts included cash, dinner at a restaurant, and gift cards. Some of the less popular (but just as prevalent) presents were clothes, food, and beverages.

If he’s a total techie, Best Buy and Amazon are always great spots to snag top notch presents from beloved brands like Apple, Microsoft, and Samsung.

How We Chose the Best Father’s Day Gifts

We took our quest to find the best Father’s Day gifts seriously. (After all, we all know how hard it can be to find something for dad’s day.) Some of the main criteria we looked at were:

  • Customer ratings: products had to have great ratings to make our list

30 Father’s Day Activities That Appeal to Every Kind of Dad


The Best Father’s Day Gifts for 2023

Best for the Chill Dad

1. Nike Sportswear Tech Fleece Men’s Joggers

Nike

  • What We Like: great variation in size and a ton of different colors to choose from
  • What We Don’t Like: pretty pricey for a pair of sweatpants
  • Return Policy: free 60-day returns for Nike Members
  • Shipping: free standard shipping for Nike Members

Tired of seeing your dad wear the same pair of ratty sweats every Sunday? We get it.

They feature a stylish tapered cuff at the bottom so he’ll look fashion-forward even on his laziest of days, while the zippered pocket on the right side is perfect if he decides to trek out to the outside world.

Best for the Cooking Papa

2. Graza Premium Olive Oil Duo

Graza

  • What We Like: the duo offers two different taste profiles to play with
  • What We Don’t Like: the Drizzle bottle is much smaller (500mL) than the Sizzle (750mL)
  • Return Policy: returns aren’t accepted
  • Shipping: depends on your location

Our food editor Taryn Pire reviewed this set of olive oils made from Picual variety olives in Spain, noting that "not only does pure Picual olive oil taste better than the old, cheap blends we’re used to...but they’re also bursting with beneficial polyphenols and antioxidants." This set consists of two bottles: one called Drizzle, one called Sizzle.

"Peppery, vegetal and just spicy enough, Drizzle is best consumed raw," Pire decrees, noting that with Sizzle, "the flavor is more muted, and the oil is mellow, delicate, soft and ever so slightly sweet in flavor." She recommends that this oil is used in frying, sautéing, searing and roasting.

  • What We Like: the mini barrel still holds 27 ounces of his fave liquor
  • What We Don’t Like: may not age or infuse the alcohol as much as larger barrels
  • Return Policy: depends on your location and Macy’s status

Home editor Candace Davison tried this plug-in seat cushion and came away with the assessment that this one of top five gifts she's ever been given. Fast-heating and great for soothing sore backs as well as just warming you up, Davison says "Healthmate’s velour cushions are incredibly soft (and not at all like the Juicy tracksuits of the early aughts, as I initially imagined), but best of all, they’re less than a couple inches thick, so it doesn’t add a lot of bulk to your chair."

Best for the Health Nut
