The 40 best Christmas gifts for the dad in your life

Men can be tricky to shop for, but these holiday gifts are a surefire hit.
We independently select and share the products we love—and may receive a commission if you choose to buy.
Let’s hear it for the man who plays “Dad” opposite your “Mom.” He rubbed your swollen pregnant feet (well, he better have), put together your complicated stroller, and told you that you looked absolutely beautiful even when you were stuffing your face with french fries and hysterically crying during a particularly bad rage of your pregnancy hormones.
He’s probably your best friend. And if he isn’t now, he will be after he receives any one of these thoughtful and amazing gifts for dads this holiday season.
The best gifts for men are obviously subjective, so we’ve gathered up our greatest finds for all kinds–the dad in need of a wardrobe upgrade, the tech-obsessed, the resident grill master, you name it.
