If Dad has to go work at a boring office building, then give him this and see what he says. This wooden transformer is made from cherry wood, so it is meant to last. The other nice thing is that it can pass as a paperweight, so passersby will not think anything is out of the ordinary.

If Dad is both a technology person and eco-conscious at the same time, then this would make a perfect gift for anytime of the year. This 2 GB USB drive is made from recycled wood. As if that weren’t unique enough, you can have this engraved with Dad’s initials. This is a very cool piece of technology.

This would be a great idea for a baseball fan. Give them cuff links made from an old seat from one of the old ballparks. There are 10 different ballpark seats available for the cuff links. This beats my momento from Comiskey Park. I grabbed a jagged piece of the brick from the outer wall. It sat on a shelf above my bed and came crashing down one night, narrowly missing my head.

This is no ordinary wallet. This is a wallet made from recycled big rig tires. This is the perfect gift for the Dad who is conscious about recycling or the Dad who loves to host a Smokey and the Bandit marathon in his living room. Either way, Dad gets a wallet to store his essentials and save a little bit of the planet while doing it.

If you’ve ever been golfing, you know that some days are simply gorgeous while some others are a little on the beastly side. The only time to get any refreshment in before you start the front or the back nine. But if you have this clever looking cooler, you can stock up on your favorite beverage, which stays completely cold due to its insulation. Just make sure no one issues you a stroke penalty for too many clubs in your bag.

If Dad like to go out where on the lake, lay by the pool or walk along the river, he might want something like this water bag. It’s a waterproof bag that is perfect for storing and protecting handheld electronics. So, if Dad is a techie and an outdoorsman, this is the perfect gift to give him.

Knife sets are not something you buy very often. Knives last quite a while. But, once you see the holder for this one, you may want to change your mind. This is kitschy and functional at its highest. I’ve had a few people mention that they have wanted a voodoo doll to playfully get back at a person for some minor offense. I think they would probably enjoy this knife set a little too much.

This gift is obviously for the younger generation of fathers. This beanbag is perfect for the father that likes to relax with a video game or two in the evening. It comes with speakers and vibration units that synch with the music and sound effects of the game. Plus, it makes a great chair for relaxing, reading, or any other number of activities.

Did you ever want the beach towel you wear to make it look like you had on a traditional Scottish kilt? Me neither. And my Dad is not even Scottish, but he does have a good sense of humor, so I think this might be something to consider when Father’s Day rolls around, or even get it now and have a laugh.

Some dads like to keep their money in a wallet. Some dads like to stash the cash in the front pocket. Still others like to keep a few dollars tucked away in a money clip. Money clips are another item that brings an air of sophistication to the owner. So, if Dad wants to feel more sophisticated, this is a perfect gift to help him in that area.
