Father’s Day Gift Guide 2019!

Father's Day Gift Guide

This is a gift guide full of items Gabe has used and loved! We hope this Father’s Day gift guide offers some fun speedy delivery options for the best men in your lives!

Father’s Day Gift Ideas

  1. “Everyday Hero” Stoneware Mug – It wouldn’t be Father’s Day without a new mug;) I really liked the stoneware collection at Hearth and Hand, and my girls are going to give this one to Gabe. (sold out but similar here)
  2. Portable Waterproof JBL Speaker – We have a larger waterproof JBL that we use daily for music. I love this smaller clip option for travel, pool, camping, etc. This has the best sound of any speakers we have had in the past!
  3. Head Lamp – I can’t tell you how many times Gabe and my boys have used their head lamps. Whether it’s working on something under the hood of a car, camping, or most recently….hunting for sand crabs, this is a great item to have on hand for multiple purposes. (sold out but similar here)
  4. Portable Stove – Another camping must have that makes hot breakfasts easy! (sold out but similar here)
  5. Cooler Backpack – I picked up one of these for Gabe at Costco last week for quite a steal (Run and see if they still have any left!). We took it to the beach, and it was a game changer for keeping food and drinks cold all day. My favorite features are the padded straps, insertable ice packs, and multitude of pockets.
  6. Vice Grips – When I was in the middle of putting together this post, Gabe got wide eyed with excitement about the many uses of vice grips, and how every man should have them. So there you have it.
  7. Speed Safe Pocket Knife – This is a good all-purpose, safe pocket knife “survival tool.” I have seen Gabe use this on several occasions both outdoors or in his work shop….but especially to open his wife’s amazon packages;) (el-oh-el)
  8. Cooling After Shave Tonic and Face Lotion – I know most men are pretty simple when it comes to personal care products (lucky men). Gabe does have his go-tos though, and we do use Father’s Day as an excuse to stock up on the ones he does like this after shave tonic and face lotion that smells incredible. There’s a free doppler bag with shave kit offer going on too.
  9. Charcoal Deodorant – Lasts all day, has a really good scent, and no harmful ingredients. (Use code IHOD10 for 10% off)
  10. Canvas Weekender – I saw this in Target the other day and loved the material and sizing of it. (sold out but similar here)
  11. Leather Charger Roll Up – For the tech savvy guys. This holds multiple chargers and comes in several color options. I love the monogram detail too.

Good thing about these gifts is many of them you can two day ship from amazon prime or pick up at Target! (Procrastinators unite.) Any other cool gift ideas you would add to this list? We are hoping to squeeze in a little camping trip for Father’s Day soon, and if nothing else…s’mores this weekend!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

I actually started browsing for ideas on a site called IBSpot last year, and it was surprisingly helpful for comparing unique finds all in one place. It took some of the holiday stress away and helped me find a truly personal gift my dad adored. Thanks for putting this list together; it’s already giving me great inspiration for this year!

  • If our team were coordinating a Father’s Day surprise, this guide would give everyone a shared starting point. I’d send it around and compare picks next.

  • The cooler backpack sounds like such a practical upgrade for beach days—those padded straps and multiple pockets really do make a difference. I’ve been using keeppin to download and organize camping and outdoor content without the watermarks cluttering things up, and it’s handy for saving gift inspiration from Pinterest boards. Definitely stealing the vice grips suggestion too; sounds like something that belongs in every toolbox.

Thank you for sharing such wonderful inspiration!
