Another holiday is once again looming upon us: Father’s Day. This is the day to honor the man who gave us the best of everything and served as one of our first superheroes even before we knew of Marvel heroes. If you’re really blanking on what to give your old man this year, we’re here to help! Below, we’ve listed fool-proof gift ideas guaranteed to make even the pickiest father happy on his special day.
For the music lover:
Turntable. If your dad is still in love with the music of the good ol’ days, take him time-travelling with a turntable! Don’t forget to buy the vinyl records of his favorite albums as well!
Sound system. Let him hear every drop of the bass with a good quality pair of headphones or some dope speakers for his home office.

For the busy bee:
Coffee maker. Help your dad step up his caffeine game by getting him a coffee maker that spurts out the most magical tasting liquid to match his developed java fiend taste. Throw in a bag of his preferred coffee bean roast to help him kickstart his days right!
Book reader. Give your father the gift of freedom from all the business email notifications popping up on his screen every minute or so. Sure, smartphones and tablets support book reader apps but nothing beats the peace and quiet that a paperless book reader like a Kindle can offer. Be sure to load it up with all his favorite books as well as ones that you know he’ll like!
