Father’s day 2025: Cool Gifts for Every Type of Dad

Father’s Day is coming up, and it’s the perfect time to show the dads in our lives a little extra love. Whether he’s the quiet type who fixes everything around the house, the outdoorsy adventurer, the techie tito, or just someone who deserves a break, there’s a gift out there that’ll make him smile (even if he tries to hide it).

This 2025, let’s skip the generic necktie and go for something a bit more personal. We rounded up practical, thoughtful, and fun Father’s Day gift ideas. Whether you’re shopping for your tatay, lolo, or even the designated “dad friend” in the group.

Start early, and make his day feel as cool, low-maintenance, and appreciated as he is.

 

For the Practical Dad

You know the type: loves tools, hates waste, and always has a belt bag filled with random but useful stuff. He’ll appreciate gifts that just make sense.

1. Cordless Power Tool Set

Whether he’s a weekend handyman or the guy everyone calls to fix a doorknob, a reliable set of cordless tools is something he’ll actually use. They’re great for home projects and quick fixes (and you just know he’ll show it off at the next family gathering).

Our top picks:

2. Durable Everyday Wallet

If his wallet is older than you and held together by pure memory, maybe it’s time for an upgrade. Look for something slim, sturdy, and with enough compartments for all his IDs (yes, even the expired ones he refuses to throw out).

Our top picks:

3. Car Organizer/Trunk Storage

You’d be surprised how excited some dads get over trunk organizers. It’s one of those “didn’t know I needed this” items that ends up being super satisfying to use. Perfect for the dad who treats his car like a second home.

Our top picks:

 

For the Tech-Savvy Dad

Whether he’s monitoring stocks on his phone, tinkering with smart home setups, or just loves a good gadget, these gifts are right up his alley.

1. Smartwatch or Fitness Band

Dads might not always bring up health stuff, but give them a smartwatch or fitness band that tracks steps, sleep, and heart rate, and suddenly they’re all about those numbers. Plus, it’s a handy way to keep an eye on their well-being without making it feel like a chore.

Our top picks:

2. Wireless Charging Station

For the dad juggling a phone, smartwatch, earbuds, and maybe even a tablet, a wireless charging station is a total lifesaver. It keeps all his devices organized and powered up without the chaos of tangled cords. No more hunting for chargers or those frantic “Where’s my charger?” moments

Our top picks:

3. Smart Mug or Tumbler

For the dad who’s serious about his coffee (or tea), a smart mug or insulated tumbler is a game-changer. It keeps his drink hot for hours, so no more frantic microwave runs or lukewarm sips during meetings or work sessions. Whether he’s at his desk or out on the go, this gift makes every sip feel just right. 

Our top picks:

 

For the Sentimental Dad

He may not say much, but he keeps every card you’ve given him. These gifts are more about the message than the price tag, and they hit right in the heart.

1. Personalized Leather Keychain or Bracelet

This is a gift that’s simple but packed with meaning. A leather keychain or bracelet feels timeless and sturdy, just like your bond. Engrave it with names, initials, a special date, or a secret message that only he knows. Every time he uses it, he’ll carry a little piece of you with him, no matter where life takes him.

Our top picks:

2. Handwritten Letter in a Keepsake Box

There’s something truly special about a heartfelt note from a child. Whether you write it yourself, print it out, or have it beautifully done in calligraphy, this personal touch means the world. Place the letter inside a keepsake box, something he can cherish and hold onto forever, reminding him just how much he’s loved every time he opens it.

Our top picks:

 

For the Outdoorsy / Adventurer Dad

He’s either already planning his next hike or dreaming of one. These gift ideas support his love for the great outdoors (or at least the next beach trip).

1. Foldable Camping Chair

For dads who want to “rough it” without actually roughing it. A comfy foldable camping chair is a game-changer whether he’s setting up by the beach, waiting for a bite while fishing, or just enjoying a quiet backyard tambay. Look for one that’s lightweight but sturdy and comfy, with a cup holder or cooler pocket for his drink of choice. 

Our top picks:

2. Lightweight Hammock or Portable Tent

Ideal for dads who nap better under trees (or just want a break from the sun). A travel-friendly hammock or pop-up tent gives him the perfect excuse to relax, whether you’re on a beach trip, camping in the mountains, or just spending a lazy Sunday at the park. Go for options that are compact, easy to set up, and built to handle the elements.

Our top picks:

3. Adventure Gear Bag

Tough and ready for anything—just like dad! A reliable adventure bag is a must-have for dads who are always on the go, whether it’s for hiking, camping, or last-minute beach plans. Look for one with multiple compartments, durable zippers, and padded straps so he can haul his gear comfortably without sacrificing organization. Bonus points if it fits his favorite snacks and emergency tools.

Our top picks:

 

 

For the Homebody Dad

Not all dads want to climb mountains or sleep under the stars. Some are perfectly content with a cold drink, a good show, and the comfiest seat in the house. These gift ideas are for the king of comfort, the dad who finds his happy place right at home, whether he’s watching a game, bingeing his favorite series, or taking that well-earned afternoon nap.

 

1. Cozy Loungewear or Slippers

Because if anyone deserves to be comfy, it’s him. Soft fabrics, good fit, and easy to wash are key.

Our top picks:

2. Mini Snack Bar Setup

Create the ultimate chill spot by turning a corner of the house into dad’s personal snack zone. Stock it with his favorite chips, drinks, and maybe even a small cooler to keep things icy cold. 

Our top picks:

3. Massage Cushion or Foot Massager

We don’t need to explain this one. Give the man his throne (or at least a foot massager so he stops complaining about his “lamig”).

Our top picks:

 

 

For the Workaholic Dad

He’s always in a meeting, replying to emails, or juggling deadlines. These gift ideas are for the dad who’s most at ease in his “zone” (with coffee and a to-do list by his side).

1. Fountain Pens

There’s something extra satisfying about writing with a really good pen. These picks add a little luxury to his everyday notes or journal entries.

Our top picks:

2. Laptop Bags

Upgrade his daily gear with a laptop bag that actually looks good and protects his tech.

Our top picks:

3. Desk Organizers

Because a clear desk can mean a clear mind. Give him a way to tidy up cables, pens, and all the little things.

Our top picks:

4. Wireless Earbuds

Whether he’s in back-to-back calls or listening to productivity playlists, a solid pair of earbuds makes a difference.
