The 20 Best Father’s Day Gifts Under $50

A new collaboration between award-winning bartender Toby Maloney and drinks writer/photographer Emma Janzen, The Classic Cocktail Sessions is a fun new take on the cocktails we all know. Dad will love learning about the 61 cocktail recipes explored in the book, and he’ll be one of the first—the book doesn’t come out until June 16, but you can preorder now, and with Amazon Prime shipping, it’ll get there in time for Father’s Day.

Of course, you’ll need to get Dad some good liquor to make those cocktails with. This aged rum just makes the cut at $50 flat—and it’s one of the best rums you can get for that price. It’s smooth and sweet with hints of dark chocolate, caramel, and molasses.

If your dad needs a skincare upgrade, just tell him this is the stuff Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson uses. (It’s literally his brand.)

Here’s a fun gift for the dad who loves to grill. He’ll enjoy experimenting with these 15 globally inspired dry rubs including Gochugaru BBQ, Thai Seven Spice, Jamaican Curry, and more delicious flavors.

If Dad needs some help organizing, his own personalized catch-all tray should do the trick. Mark & Graham is offering free monogramming, so you can add that extra special touch without paying extra.

The perfect gift for a dad who loves golf as much as he loves wine? Golf ball–shaped wine stoppers. And you can get two for $45!

Want to get Dad a classic shirt he’s sure to look sharp in? We’re eyeing Wrangler’s 250 Years of America collection, which includes this snazzy cowboy cut shirt that comes in eight nice colors.

Sure, Dad might not be impressed with a jar of black pepper from the supermarket, but Milly Pepper is different. This freshly harvested pepper (black, white, or green) comes with a matching ceramic pepper mill. It will take his home-cooked meals to the next level.

You might not be able to buy Dad a fancy full-size cologne on this budget, but you can definitely score a nice sample pack. Tone is a cool new unisex fragrance brand, and it makes a sample set of its four signature scents for just $20. The “Fresh” fragrance is a classic, clean scent, and “Coconut” is my pick for a summer scent.

He’ll feel like a kid again playing cornhole in the backyard—and it makes for a fun family activity during your Father’s Day celebration.

A cute little beer koozie that looks like a flannel jacket—what dad wouldn’t adore that??

There’s a reason we’ve included Jaxon Lane’s Bro Mask products in our Grooming Awards multiple times—these face masks are incredibly soothing and hydrating, and even celebrities love them. Your dad will, too.

You know what you can get for under $50? A really nice candle. Ranger Station makes some fun, manly candles with nature-inspired scents and Nashville aesthetics. I love this Oakmoss scent with earthy notes of cedarwood, moss, amber, and bergamot.

If your dad loves tea as much as mine does, he’ll appreciate a nice assortment of black tea blends from Tea Forté. For something with a bit less caffeine, go for the green tea assortment; for something more light and soothing, go for this herbal blends box.

Or if he’s more of a coffee guy, get him this portable French press that can also be used as a pour-over and espresso maker. Pretty nifty, right?

Maybe he still prefers to write correspondence by hand, and in that case, you should get him a nice fountain pen—something he’ll definitely use.

He could always use a good pair of polarized sunglasses, especially now that it’s summer and the sun is actually out.

For the dad who loves to build stuff—this electric screwdriver will make his next project easier, and he might become a little obsessed with this little gadget.

Treat his feet with these comfy, supportive slippers he can wear both inside and outside.
