This lunch bag is deceptively deep. It'll pack a lunch or an entire twelve pack—perfect for work days or fishing trips.
Email it to him as you're walking up to his front door. He won't care.
It's a massage tool he can toss in his golf bag, gym bag, or carry-on. No matter where he is, he'll be free from muscle pain.
On a serious time crunch? Run out to the liquor store—or online retailer—and grab a bottle of something. For most dads, that perfect something is Matthew and Camila McConaughey's Pantalones blanco. He can use it in any one of his favorite warm weather drinks—margarita, paloma, or in true Texas fashion a ranch water.
Speaking of a poolside ranch water, there's no vessel more fitting of his tequila-lime-Topo cocktail, but it's also great for a morning coffee or gym water. Get it next-day shipped with Prime.
Good bourbon has never, not once, failed as a Father's Day gift. A bottle of Great Jones will make his day.
If he's more of a purist and prefers Kentucky bourbon, Angel's Envy makes some of the best.
No, you can't get a grill next-day delivered, but you can snag one-week shipping on a recteq grill on Amazon. The bullseye deluxe is the perfect blend of old-fashioned kettle grill and new-age pellet smoker.
The ugliest, most comfortable slides he'll ever slip on. If he runs, or just gets sore after cutting the grass, these are a necessity.
Snake River Farms sells some of the best American Wagyu you're gonna find. If you're really in a time crunch, get a gift card. But if you've still got a few days, we suggest any of the all-star appetizers, Wagyu, or surf-and-turf boxes.
MEATER Smart Meat Thermometer
A smart wireless thermometer will take all the guesswork out of his grilling, smoking, roasting, and any other meat-cooking technique he's trying out.
Breville Bambino Espresso Machine
Any coffee snob will appreciate owning a Breville machine. This version not only offers all the bells and whistles he craves but is compact enough to fit on his crowded countertop.
It's time to upgrade his ratty old college sweatshirt. Reigning Champ makes some of the best athleticwear around, including this mid-weight hoodie he'll practically live in.
For an audio book lover that doesn't want to abandon their independent bookstore, Libro.fm will send a portion of your choosing back to their (or your) local bookstore.
Dad wants to kickstart his workout routine, but he can't just throw plates around like he used to. Alo Moves gives him access to world-class trainers and all the new-fangled low-impact techniques a man of his age requires.
If he lives in any city with a brick-and-mortar Diptyque location, you can send him candles with same-day delivery. Feu de Bois (also available in more affordable sizes) is a masculine woody fragrance that we love.
It's an Italian leather catchall with wireless charging capability, and it's two-day shipping with Prime. Not many things on the list are gonna beat this.
Bose QuietComfort 45 Headphones
Noise cancelling so strong he can listen to his audiobook while he mows the grass.
