Truly nothing like eating some Oreo-inspired dessert seasoning in a pair of "petal" sweatpants while going to town on a "Cozy Spaces" themed coloring book.

But the real star of the show is the massage feature. It's like having a personal masseuse on call 24/7. The various settings allow me to customize the intensity and target specific areas, melting away tension and stress after a long day. I also appreciate the recliner's sleek and modern design.

42 Thoughtful Last-Minute Father's Day Gifts That'll Get To Dad On Time
Even gifts you shop in the eleventh hour can show the father figure in your life how much he means to you. From Amazon Prime-eligible presents to monthly subscription boxes, there are tons of unique (and thoughtful) gifts guaranteed to arrive by Father's Day, which is on Sunday, June 15. Our top speedy recommendations include a supportive pair of Brooks Glycerin 22 Running Shoes, Loop's versatile silicone earplugs to muffle unwanted sounds and our favorite noise-canceling wireless headphones from Bose. Crunched for time? We found the best last-minute Father's Day gifts that ship fast but are still ... More meaningful. When selecting a last-minute gift, consider your dad's interests and hobbies, as well as splurge-worthy items he wouldn't think to buy for himself. For example, foodies will appreciate Harry & David's Summer Grilling Gift Box, while avid birders will get plenty of use from Birdsnap's Smart Bird Feeder. Below, shop our editors' favorite last-minute Father's Day gifts that will arrive on time and show Dad how much you care. For more gifting inspiration, we also curated the best Father's Day gifts and the best subscription boxes for dads. Amazon Whether Dad prefers walking or running, this supportive sneaker will help propel him forward and keep his feet well-positioned as he moves. My brother and I gifted my dad a pair of supportive sneakers for Father's Day last year, and he uses them every day. (The Glycerin 22 shoes are also a top pick in our guide to the best men's running shoes.) Amazon Forbes Vetted supervising deals and coupons editor, Kara Cuzzone, recommends the Aura Digital Picture Frame, which displays photos and videos directly from your phone. 'It's really easy to set up, and the whole family can add pictures to it via an app, so you can share old memories and new pictures even if you're not together physically. Plus, the picture quality is super crisp,' says Cuzzone. Amazon This wireless meat thermometer ensures Dad's favorite BBQ won't be over- or undercooked and is incredibly easy to use. The set includes two color-coded probes with individual sensors (four different sensors total, including three internal and one ambient temperature sensor) and a 'booster' that displays the temperatures on a bright LCD screen, making it easy to monitor the cooking process. The device connects via Bluetooth, and the app sends alerts, estimated cooking times and more. Amazon Help Dad whip up delicious breakfast sandwiches with this fun device from Hamilton Beach. All he has to do is layer his favorite bread on the top and bottom with an egg (plus other ingredients and toppings) and wait for the countdown timer to alert him that it's ready. Amazon This digital watch by Casio has a cool, retro look, and the smooth resin band feels light and comfortable on the wrist. It's a stylish accessory for work, golf outings, lunch with friends and more. Plus, it has a 20-bar water resistance rating and can withstand sudden impacts (like being dropped) without damage. Amazon Whether Dad is a workout enthusiast or could benefit from a targeted massage to help him relax, the TheraGun Therabody Mini is a practical gift that he's sure to use often. It comes with three attachments, and its portable size makes it easy to throw in a gym bag or luggage. Amazon If he's a coffee (or tea) drinker, the Ember mug will ensure his cup of joe is never cold. It provides up to 80 minutes of heat—or all-day warmth when placed on the charging coaster—and has an auto sleep feature and handy LED indicator lights that alert you when your drink is at the desired temperature. Amazon If your father is a sports fan, chances are he'll love reading about the history of baseball and the legendary players that made the game what it is today. Written by Kevin Baker, The New York Game is intertwined with stories of American life in New York City, the birthplace of baseball, and the controversial moments that are still debated and discussed. Amazon Recommended by our home editors as one of the best fire pits on the market after several rounds of testing, the Breeo Smokeless 24-Inch Fire Pit is great if Dad loves entertaining or spending time outside. The smoke-free fire provides warmth without any lingering odors. Amazon I bought my dad a Yeti travel mug two years ago, and he talks about it every time I come home to visit. The mug's base fits perfectly into cupholders, so he can bring it with him when he's running errands, and the leak-resistant lid prevents the contents from sloshing out. My dad also loves that it's dishwasher safe for easy cleaning. Goldbelly New York City has a vibrant food scene, and this creative gift box (it serves 8 to 12 people) contains some of the city's most iconic dishes. Highlights include a pastrami sandwich kit from Eli Zabar, a coal-fired pizza from John's of Bleecker Street, an assortment of pre-baked bagels from Zucker's and a cheesecake from Junior's. Harry & David This well-organized box of savory spices and sauces will help Dad whip up delicious meals throughout the summer. The bundle by Harry & David contains four different sauces and a bold Peppercorn spice rub, and it's available to ship now (last-minute gifters might want to bookmark this option). Amazon Add a little flavor to his food with this fiery trio of Hot Ones hot sauces and a heat guide so he can work his way up to more intense varieties. The varying flavors and heat levels—from the milder Classic to the intense The Last Dab XPerience—will keep things interesting. All that's missing are crispy chicken wings. Amazon Dad can use this collection of savory sauces in several different ways: drizzle them over dumplings, use them as a marinade, stir them into noodle dishes or use them as a dipping sauce for crispy fried chicken. The possibilities are endless, and there are three flavors to experiment with (spicy sweet soy, ginger soy and Sichuan sesame soy). Crowd Cow Updates writer Fran Sales gifted a Crowd Cow surf-and-turf bundle to her dad (a true carnivore who's been trying to eat more healthily), and she says the whole thing was a hit—not just with Dad, but with the entire family. The key to the brand's fresh, delicious offerings are its partners: ethical farms, fisheries and producers, which ensure you receive only the highest-quality products, whether that's pasture-raised beef or free-range organic chicken. Your dad can redeem this gift card on the Crowd Cow website. Amazon If he spends a lot of time in the backyard, this smart bird feeder by Birdsnap is packed with cool features to level up his birdwatching. It uses AI to identify bird species, and the high-definition, wide-angle camera captures birds in real time, even at night. Ticketmaster If your dad is hard to shop for, consider a Ticketmaster gift card so that he can choose from thousands of events ranging from concerts to sporting events to comedy shows. 'I got my dad US Open tickets last year, and they were a big hit,' says Cuzzone. 'He's a huge tennis fan but had never been to the Open, so I got tickets for us to go together, and he hasn't stopped talking about it since.' Amazon This traditional Japanese watercolor set is a winning gift if he's creative or just looking to pick up a new hobby. 'I bought this paint set for my dad last year, and he loved it,' says Thomas. 'The colors are rich, and come in a beautiful package, so you don't need extra wrapping if you're running out of time and have to send it directly.' Uncommon Goods 'One of my dad's favorite gifts I've ever gotten him is this custom viewfinder,' says Forbes Vetted updates writer Claire Epting. 'It's delightfully nostalgic, and the personalization process was straightforward and fun.' It comes with a unique code to redeem your customized photo reel online. Epting advises ordering it in advance to ensure the viewfinder and the photo reel arrive in time for Father's Day. fossil Our top bifold pick in our guide to the best wallets for men, this compact and well-organized wallet makes an excellent gift that Dad will use daily. 'The material is flexible and smooth to the touch, while the stitching around the edge of the wallet prevents loose strings from sticking out,' says our tester, Forbes Vetted content strategy analyst Luke Frangis. Minted A framed photo is a classic gift that any Dad is sure to appreciate. This option from Minted offers several customization options, including the size and type of frame (choose from six wood shades and specialty materials like brushed silver) as well as the matting. Universal Yums If Dad has an adventurous palate, this subscription box offers popular snacks from different countries, including South Korea, Greece, Pakistan and more. 'I got my stepdad a subscription to Universal Yums a few years back, and he still talks about some of the snacks he discovered. It's extremely last-minute friendly and just a fun way to try something new every month,' says Jordan Thomas, assistant deals editor at Forbes Vetted. Atlas Coffee If Dad starts each day with a cup of coffee, treat him to this customizable Atlas Coffee Club subscription. You can select the coffee type (ground, whole bean or pods), brew method, roast preference and number of bags per shipment. Bespoke Post If you're not sure what to get the father figure in your life, go for a subscription box from Bespoke Post, which caters to various interests and hobbies, from mixology to clothing. It earned the top spot in our guide to the best subscription boxes for men, and we like that it highlights goods from small businesses and lesser-known brands. MasterClass Whether interested in honing his writing skills or learning more about the business world, MasterClass offers a wide range of sessions to help the father figure in your life learn and grow. Classes from entrepreneurs and experts like Mark Cuban and Stephen Curry are added monthly, and he can watch on his TV or phone instantly. Amazon These multi-use earplugs are crafted from flexible silicone (they come with four ear tip sizes so Dad can find the best fit) to muffle unwanted noises and help him sleep, relax or focus on work. The portable case is also easy to slip into a backpack or pocket so he can bring these on the go. Amazon Whether he's trying to drown out sounds on his morning commute or zen out after a long day at the office, these wireless noise-cancelling headphones by Bose are an excellent gift. They have 24 hours of battery life, rich audio quality and plush ear cups that feel comfortable even after hours of wear. (After our extensive testing, they were rated the best wireless headphones overall.) Amazon Last year, I bought this Amazon Fire TV streaming stick for my dad (an avid movie watcher), and he absolutely loves it. It's easy to install and navigate between apps, and the picture quality is crisp and clear. Amazon I gave my Dad an earlier version of this portable speaker a few years ago, and he always talks about how much he loves it. (It's also a top pick in our guide to the best bluetooth speakers.) This speaker is incredibly durable, so Dad can use it outside or while camping without worrying about it getting damaged. Plus, it can go up to 24 hours on a single charge. Amazon Kiehl's is a top-rated skincare brand known for its gentle yet effective formulas, and we appreciate this giftable set that includes two essential products for all skin types. The gel face wash cleanses without stripping skin, and the moisturizer contains vitamin C, which can improve Dad's skin tone and texture over time. Amazon Help Dad unwind after a long day with these hydrating eye masks. Standout ingredients include caffeine, which increases circulation and can reduce puffiness, niacinamide and green tea. Amazon Shaving cream is an essential that Dad will use regularly. This 2-pack is formulated without fragrance and includes hydrating (and soothing!) ingredients such as colloidal oatmeal, shea butter and aloe leaf juice. Korchmar Upgrade Dad's grooming routine with this sleek leather toiletry bag that's packed with sunscreen, moisturizer, aluminum-free deodorant, Epsom salt bar soap and more. The bag features snap-down ends, allowing you to expand it as needed, and a secure zippered top closure. At checkout, you can select Next Day or Second Day Air shipping for an extra charge—orders are processed at 11 a.m. daily. Omnilux If Dad is all about low-maintenance self-care, this FDA-cleared light therapy device requires just 10 minutes per session and can be worn while he makes his morning coffee. It uses medical-grade technology to target fine lines, wrinkles, inflammation, redness, uneven skin tone and more. Two velcro straps keep it secure, and the flexible silicone molds to your face for a comfortable fit. Note that shipping takes two to three days (after processing), so make sure to snag this ASAP if you want it to get to Dad by Sunday. Amazon If Dad is big into self-care, he may have heard of hygge, the term for a unique aspect of Danish culture that means the feeling of contentment you get from absolute comfort. These slip-ons from Danish brand Glerups, which are made from 100% wool from both New Zealand and Denmark, embody this concept to the fullest, thanks to the comfy but breathable uppers, foot-shaped design and sturdy rubber soles. Updates writer Sales gifted this to a friend a few years ago, and he ended up wearing them both indoors and out (and she borrowed them frequently, too). Amazon If Dad is a fan of aviator-style sunglasses, there's no better gift than a pair from American Optical, the iconic brand that designed the first pair for the U.S. military 90 years ago. These durable, timeless specs are made to military specifications, which includes impact-resistance and 100% UVA/UVB protection. Faherty With warm weather on the horizon, gift Dad a stylish and lightweight shirt that he's sure to wear whether he's meeting friends for lunch, running errands or going to dinner. The open-weave linen is breathable and features a relaxed fit and shirttail hem. You can grab this as soon as tomorrow if you choose to pick it up from a nearby Nordstrom; otherwise, shipping takes between one and three days from both retailers. Fair Harbor Fair Harbor's ultra-popular Bayberry Swim Trunks are made from a water-repellent fabric that's quick to dry, resists odors and has 4-way stretch, so they won't feel tight or restricting. There are more than 20 fun colors and prints to choose from, and the hidden back pocket with a keyring is another helpful feature. You can grab this as soon as tomorrow if you pick up at a nearby Nordstrom; otherwise, shipping takes one to two days (after processing) from Fair Harbor. Amazon A favorite brand from our fashion team (they earned a top spot in our roundup of the best men's pajamas), this pajama set will keep Dad cool and comfortable whether he's sleeping or lounging. The fabric is silky-soft and non-pilling, and the pants have two side pockets. Sperry This iconic shoe is popular for a reason—it's constructed from durable, full-grain leather, features EVA cushioning for all-day support, and can be easily slipped on and off. The visible top-stitching and rawhide laces add an extra touch of pizzazz to this style as well. My brother and I gifted my Dad a pair of Sperry boat shoes a few years ago, and he wears them all the time. Cozy Earth My Dad is always looking for comfortable garments that he can wear to work and on the weekends, and I plan on gifting him these pants for Father's Day. The nylon-spandex blend is both stretchy and soft, and it comes in three lengths to ensure the best fit. If you're ordering from Amazon, the color Eclipse arrives before Father's Day, but Jet Black takes a bit longer to ship. Nordstrom Polo shirts are versatile and easy to wear, so Dad is sure to get a lot of use out of this option. We appreciate the slightly textured cotton fabric, which has plenty of stretch, and the ribbed detailing on both sleeves. Some of the most popular gifts on Father's Day are headphones (we recommend the Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones), sneakers or apparel (our pick is the Brooks Glycerin 22 Running Shoe) and personalized gifts. Other popular categories include personal care products, gift cards and subscription boxes.

The Second Kate Moss x Zara Collab Is The Ultimate Festival Wardrobe
If you're heading to Europe for festival season, the fashion icon herself, Kate Moss, has just collaborated with Zara (who is celebrating 50 years) for second time on The Festival Collection. Following the success of the supermodel's first Studio 54-inspired collaboration in 2024, these new rock 'n' roll styles reminiscent of her Glastonbury days are sure to excite everyone. Moss, who designed the collection with long-time stylist Katy England, was inspired by 'some of her favourite festival pieces, including styles from thrift stores of small-town America to the most elevated boutiques of Paris and Milan,' according to a press release. Think: sparkly mini dresses, embroidered vests, biker boots, and stacked bangles. Speaking on these limited-edition pieces, Moss says: 'Nothing matches the feeling of finding a one-off piece. Just wow. The piece that only you own.' And while others may cart up the same item from the collection as you, the nostalgic designs feel exclusive and help you stand out from the crowd thanks to the supermodel's inimitable style. The womenswear collection — which is modelled by Moss' equally cool daughter, Lila Moss — features everything from flowy blouses and lace matching sets to androgynous silk suits and go-go boots, with prices ranging from $49.95 to $679.

Jeff Bezos' Mom Enrolled Him in Football Because He Struggled With Other Kids — 'Barely Made the Weight Limit' But 2 Weeks Later, He Was Captain
You can only tell the "Bezos started Amazon in his garage" story so many times before it starts to feel like a corporate bedtime story. But long before the garage and the buff billionaire energy, Jeff Bezos was just a scrawny Texas kid who, according to his mom, "barely made the weight limit" to play youth football. That detail — along with most of what follows — comes from "The Inner Jeff Bezos," a 1999 Wired profile that dug into the early years of the now-spacefaring mogul. Don't Miss: Maker of the $60,000 foldable home has 3 factory buildings, 600+ houses built, and big plans to solve housing — Deloitte's fastest-growing software company partners with Amazon, Walmart & Target – Jackie Bezos said her son wasn't always the most socially comfortable kid. To help him fit in, she and her husband signed him up for the high-stakes world of Texas football — and expected the worst. "I thought he was going to get creamed out there," she admitted. But just two weeks later, her undersized son was named defensive captain. Why? He was the only kid who could remember all the plays — not just his own, but the entire squad's. Of course, he was. That same brainpower showed up in more geek-approved ways, too. In elementary school, Bezos enrolled in the Vanguard program at Houston's River Oaks Elementary, a magnet school for academically advanced students. The Wired profile also mentioned how Julie Ray's 1977 book "Turning on Bright Minds" followed 12-year-old Jeff — pseudonym "Tim" — through a typical school day, describing him as "friendly but serious," and "possessed of general intellectual excellence." He was, notably, "not particularly gifted in leadership," though that might come as a surprise to his future employees and rocket engineers. Trending: Maximize saving for your retirement and cut down on taxes: . But if he wasn't a born leader, he was a born sci-fi addict. Once his school got access to a mainframe computer, Bezos and friends would spend hours playing a primitive Star Trek game, hunting down cloaked Klingons on a three-by-three matrix. Forget flag football — this is what real future billionaires were doing in the '70s. By high school, Bezos had his eyes on the stars — literally. While other kids dreamed of becoming astronauts, he told people he planned to be a space entrepreneur. "He said the future of mankind is not on this planet, because we might be struck by something, and we better have a spaceship out there," recalled the father of his high school girlfriend, Rudolf Werner. That might've sounded like sci-fi-fueled delusion back then — the kind of thing a teenager says after too many NASA brochures and not enough sleep — but Bezos wasn't bluffing. He attended a high school space initiative at NASA's Huntsville facility in Alabama, where his plans for a future among the stars started taking shape. According to his science teacher Bill McCreary, "Oh, he had ideas about space promotion!"Those ideas weren't about being the next astronaut on a shuttle. Bezos wanted to build the shuttle. Run the launchpad. Own the orbital infrastructure. And if you've seen Blue Origin's New Shepard rocket or his statements about colonizing space, well — that wasn't just a passing teenage obsession. It was a business plan in beta. Even today, he hasn't let go of the big vision. When reminded in the Wired interview of his youthful warnings that Earth was vulnerable to extinction-level disasters, Bezos chuckled — but only for a second. "I wouldn't mind helping in some way," he said. "I do think we have all our eggs in one basket." Read Next: Here's what Americans think you need to be considered wealthy.
