“It’s a funny invention, no?” says pastry chef Jacques Torres of these exfoliating gloves. “Call me lazy, but these make things so much more efficient.”

We recommended this cooperative party game for a reader’s “neurosurgeon son who is into Magic: The Gathering,” but it would also be great for dads who get too heated when they don’t have enough sheep to build a settlement.
“Turn it on, put your feet on it while you’re working, and it’ll warm them up,” is how Sarah Cooper, the comedian best known for her dad-favorite viral impressions of Donald Trump, describes this heated footrest. “It’s the best gift I’ve ever given myself.”
An insulated growler is the perfect thing for him to fill with his favorite grisette or DIPA — and keep it cold for hours.
“The world of whiskey is littered with glassware,” says Jason Julier of whiskey website Malt Review. He mentions these tulip-shaped glasses as a favorite: “They provide solid performance and a robust, practical design.”

This lightweight portable charger will keep his phone charged on the go — and it makes a great gift, according to Megababe founder Katie Sturino.
If his fingers are too big to text on a small phone screen, this nifty Bluetooth keyboard will turn his iPhone in to a tiny typewriter. “Weighing just seven ounces, it folds up into a slim nondescript rectangle that can easily slide into a tote bag,” says Strategist writer Katherine Gillespie.
‘Soul of a Nation: Art in the Age of Black Power,' edited by Mark Godfrey and Zoé Whitley Very Good Deal
Soul of a Nation: Art in the Age of Black Power chronicles work created by Black artists from 1963 to 1983. That 20-year period defines the civil-rights movement, and thus lots of art at that time dealt with race, politics, and what it meant to be Black in America. This would look nice sitting out on a coffee table and makes for good reading material, too.
One of our 100 most-stood-behind products ever, this affordable white-noise machine has helped New York Magazine deputy editor Alexis Swerdloff get to sleep for no less than eight years (and in three apartments) and counting.
Singer Jake Shears suggests this roast straight from New Orleans’s iconic Café du Monde. (If Dad’s the type to go through several bags of beans in a month, you might consider a coffee subscription instead.)
As Strategist contributor Chris Schalkx explains, the Qubii “has a USB plug on one side and a USB socket on the other, plus a slot for a MicroSD memory card. To back up my photos, all I had to do was sandwich the Qubii between my iPhone’s wall-outlet adapter and power cord and plug it into my phone.” (Note that the model shown doesn’t come with a MicroSD card, but you can spring for Qubiis that do if you’re willing to spend a little bit more than $50.)
Many men swear by safety razors and say they provide a smoother and less irritating shave. The Merkur 34C is our best-in-class safety razor; the expert barbers we spoke to praised its reliable engineering and ease of use.
If he’s killed a windowsill basil plant, it’s not his fault: “The roots of herbs are somewhat simplistic,” says Sera Rogue, the owner of the Brooklyn gardening company Red Fern. “They require daily watering.” The AeroGarden is our best-in-class hydroponic smart garden and will provide a constant supply of basil he can harvest straight from the kitchen counter.
If your dad is the type to spend 15 minutes in a panic trying to find his keys before leaving the house, we suggest the Tile bluetooth tracker, which is about the size of a nickel and can stick to all his valuables.
Baristas have a lot of opinions about best way to brew a cup of coffee, but all agree that freshly ground beans are better. If Dad’s still buying his pre-ground — or if he’s still using a grinder he bought ten years ago — this relatively affordable grinder would make for a just-fancy-enough upgrade, according to Paul Schlader, the head roaster at New York City’s Birch Coffee. It has 12 grind-size settings for different brewing methods along with a “cup selector” dial.
In our gift guide for beer lovers, Andrew Burman of Other Half Brewing Co. recommended this rapid cooler from Cooper. “Having a rapid cooler for beer, wine, or Champagne is key, especially for last-minute gatherings,” Burman says. Dad will never have to clean up another exploded beer in the freezer again.

A Twitch-streamer-approved microphone will set him apart from the other tinny-sounding podcasters — and it plugs into a USB port, so it doesn’t require advanced tech skills to set up.
This stylish radio is just that — a radio. It does AM/FM and nothing else. But as dad will tell you, that’s the point.

This utility cart will help him schlep his stuff across the sand, and it turns into a comfortable beach lounger.

There’s always something dashing about whipping out a nice umbrella. After testing 37 of them, we declared Davek’s wind-resistant, comfortable-to-hold, stylish-looking, fast-drying model as one of our absolute favorites.
Chiropractor David Perna of Back & Body Medical told us the Hypervolt is “used a lot by therapists, masseuses, chiropractors, and athletes alike,” adding that it is “also great for personal use to massage sore muscles” because he can hold it so the head hits the exact spot that’s bothering him.
If throwing away perfectly good food is his worst nightmare, consider this vacuum sealer that does more than just replace Tupperware — you can use it to ferment vegetables, cure meat, sous-vide, and more. Anthony Accardi, co-owner of Brooklyn’s Transmitter Brewing, says, “You can marinate something for ten minutes instead of overnight and get the same amount of flavor. I cure pastrami, bacon, and ham in it.”
“If you want to see a grown chef cry, gift them an Ooni,” Strategist food and dining writer Emma Wartzman writes. If he’s been fiddling with his pizza setup, he’ll appreciate this outdoor oven, which can get as hot as 950 degrees Fahrenheit.
The Levo II took the top spot in our roundup of cannabis infusers. And it even makes a great gift for dads who prefer baking the traditional way: “You can even get extra chef-y and play around with making non-cannabis infusions in it as well: Basil finishing oil, lavender honey, pandan coconut cream — you’ll find yourself wanting to infuse everything,” says Stephanie Hua, founder and chief confectioner of Mellows and author of the cookbook Edibles.
If he’s really into stargazing, a pair of binoculars designed specifically for observing the night sky like these from Celestron will allow Dad to see constellations much faster than setting up a telescope. They come recommended by Strategist contributor Steven John, who says the binoculars “let me see details on the surface of the moon I thought were reserved for Apollo astronauts.”
