It's a universal truth: Shopping for Dad is nothing short of a challenge. The Pioneer Woman knows this feeling all too well. "The men in my life are so hard to buy for," Ree Drummond admits, "and they would much rather have a delicious plate of food than any material treasure in the world." And while that may be true, we understand you still want to find that perfect gift to show Dad just how much he means to you—especially if he's as awesome and beloved as, say, Ree's husband, Ladd.

So, if you're looking for a token of your appreciation, you're in the right place. Here, find a compilation of the absolute best gifts for dad. All of the presents on this list are equal parts practical and fun. They're also sentimental in nature, which means there are plenty of perfect gifts for new dads here. You'll also find a ton of personalized options—including a stunning leather passport holder that would make a nice gift for Dad from his son and a leather AirPods case as a gift for Dad from his daughters—to really tailor this year's gifting experience to him.

If Dad loves food, you're covered there, too; plenty of items on this list are cooking-centric. There are even a few fun mixologist-approved finds. Plus, there's a book with the best dad jokes, since we all know he loves those! And of course, all of these make perfect Father's Day gifts. So browse this list and find something great to give to the man who gave you everything.
