Ultimate List of Christmas Gift Ideas for Dads That Have Everything
This is, as the title implies, a website dedicated to finding the perfect gift for dads. This includes the perfect gift for dad on Christmas (or any holiday he celebrates this time of year). Of course, Christmas giving is especially meaningful. You want to purchase something that will surprise the dad in your life. Perhaps that’s something he wouldn’t splurge on for himself. Maybe it’s something he’s never even heard of. Maybe it’s something that fits his interests, like music or working out. No matter the case, the gift should be purchased with the specific dad in your life in mind (because what one dad treasures, another dad may think is trash).
This list of Christmas gifts for dad includes gifts that will meet any budget and fulfill any interest. Some dads may really want gardening gifts, or the latest tech, or the most stylish outerwear. So before you dive in and begin scrolling, think about a few general interests your dad may have. And if the relationship with your dad isn’t a close one, and it’s difficult to pinpoint any specific interests, scroll to the bottom for gift ideas that are a fit for pretty much every father out there.
Amazon Fire TV Stick for HD Streaming
The Fire TV Stick with Alexa Voice Remote is an affordable way to up dad’s TV-watching habits. This one simplifies streaming for all dad’s favorite services, like Hulu, Netflix and more. Now with Thursday Night Football steaming exclusively on Amazon Prime, this will make NFL football season more enjoyable for dad so he won’t miss the action.

Gift dad some silence this holiday. When it comes to noise-cancellation and comfort, nothing compares to these Bose headphones. They are sleek, surprisingly light-weight, and most importantly, will allow dad to rock out no matter what he’s listening to.

This travel bartender kit lets dad essentially become a walking bar. With everything needed to shake up cocktails for friends or family, this one is sure to receive a warm welcome from dad during your holiday festivities.
Apple Watch
Is your dad a watch guy? If so, he probably already has an Apple watch. But does he have the same standard band and rectangle face that everyone seems to have? Then this is the upgrade he deserves. Simultaneously sleek and rugged-looking, this graphite stainless steel Apple Watch Series 8 will make dad’s wrist look and shiny as the star on the Christmas tree.
Fender Acoustic Guitar
It’s never too late to teach an old dad new tricks. Old or young, this Fender acoustic guitar is sure to excite a guy who always felt he had a little rock star hidden within.
Pizza Stone
I’d say all dads are different, but this may unite them all. Dads love pizza (I’d say almost everyone does). Gift dad the ability to bake up his own pie at home with this pizza stone that will create a serious crust that will have him deleting Papa John’s from the contact list.
Rypstick Golf Distance Training Club
For many dads, winter is a time we wish we were back out on the course working on our golf game. Gift dad this holiday season with the Rypstick, a weighted golf club that helps you train and strengthen your swing for longer drives and smaller scores. I recently picked one of these up and I know I’ll be swinging it around the garage while it’s snowing here in the Midwest. It’s adjustable, comes with an app for training exercises, and you can easily keep it in your golf bag. Your golfing enthusiast dad will love this gift!
Temperature Control Smart Mug
I’ve got to say, I’m particularly into this gift idea. The Ember Temperature Control Smart Mug will keep dad’s cup of joe hot for up to 1.5 hours. Dad prefer not to burn his tongue? This smart mug allows you to set a temperature of your choosing between 120 – 150 degrees. So cool.
Bose QuietComfort Earbuds
If dad wants noise-cancelling capabilities in a small, compact earbud, these Bose QuietComfort buds will do the trick.
Mid-Weight Puffer Vest
It’s winter; it’s vest season. I’m a big vest guy, and if your dad is too, he may like this puffer from Amazon Essentials. Skipping the brand name saves you some bucks, and I also like that this one is mid-weight meaning it’s not too puffy for dad.
New Golf Driver
As a golfer myself, I can say it’s fun to try a swing with a new driver. This driver from Alien features a premium soft feel pro line grip and is made of titanium. There are lots of other golf gift ideas here.
Nike Basketball Shoes
New kicks make for great gifts… so long as you know dad’s shoe size. These Nike basketball shoes have a great color combo that will stay looking newer longer. Plus, maybe they’ll somehow help with dad’s jump shot (no guarantee there).
Apple iPad Pro
Gift dad a major technology upgrade with the 2022 Apple iPaid Pro. At 11-inches this version is smaller than some other options, making it easy to transport and a bit more affordable.
Hanes Men’s Fleece Zip-Up Hoodie
It is with complete confidence that I recommend this Hanes Men’s Fleece hoodie to you. This is because last winter, my wife and I cleaned out the closet and bought a total of 5 Hanes sweatshirts between the two of us. Comfortable, affordable and certainly stylish enough, I also own and like the crewneck option.
Adjustable Dumbbell Set
Is your dad one who will recommit to the gym in January? Make his at-home situation more conducive to health with this dumbbell weight set.
