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.

Country singer Conner Smith involved in fatal truck-pedestrian crash in Nashville

Conner Smith, an up-and-coming country singer nominated for new male artist at last year's ACM Awards, allegedly struck a 77-year-old pedestrian Sunday night in Nashville, police said. The woman died. "The preliminary contributing factor for this crash appears to be Smith failing to yield the right of way to the pedestrian. He showed no signs of impairment," the Metro Nashville Police Department said in a news release. "There are no charges at present as the investigation continues." Read more: Luke Bryan sees no message in Beyoncé's CMA Awards snub: 'A lot of great music's overlooked' The woman, identified as Dorothy Dobbins, lived nearby, according to police. She was walking in a marked crosswalk at the time of the collision, which occurred around 7:30 p.m. Dobbins died at nearby Vanderbilt University Medical Center, police said. The viral "I Hate Alabama" singer saw his 2023 tune "Creek Will Rise" climb onto the Billboard Hot 100 chart in early 2024. He has been a special guest on Luke Bryan's Farm Tour, an annual effort aimed at bringing what Bryan calls "big city" country music to rural areas. Farm Tour 2025 hit California's Merced, Fresno and Kern counties in May and will play three Midwest shows in September. "His heart goes out to Ms. Dobbins' family during this incredibly difficult time,' Smith's attorney told TMZ in a statement that acknowledged the singer's involvement in the crash and indicated he was cooperating with authorities. Smith is among the acts scheduled to open for Bryan this Saturday in Florida at the Boston Red Sox "Fenway South" spring-training facility in Fort Myers. He has shows booked around the country through the summer, including opening for "In Case You Didn't Know" singer Brett Young on Aug. 8 at the Pacific Amphitheatre in Costa Mesa.

Exclusive: Unicorn launches to help creators build YouTube shows

Former Doing Things Media executive Scott Dunn and former BuzzFeed and Doing Things producer Chris Gera have teamed up to launch Unicorn, a hybrid content studio and talent management firm focused on creating IP. Why it matters: The firm provides a new business model for the creator economy and helps digital creators build sustainable content businesses. The big picture: Digital creators can hit a ceiling after building large audiences on TikTok or Instagram and struggle to evolve into long-form storytellers who can better monetize their work. Digital studios that have launched in recent years have leaned into a man-on-the-street format and focused on TikTok and short form. Unicorn differs by starting with the talent instead of format, signing as their manager and building unique shows, and by prioritizing YouTube and long form. "We want to build this reputation of being the most creative, chronically online, content-obsessed people that is only available for our clients," Dunn said. "Part of our motto is cut out the middle man, cut in the creator." How it works: Unicorn has signed five creators and launched two shows — an interview show called " Chicken Show" and a dating show called " The Daddy Academy." Its growing roster comprises Maxine the Fluffy Corgi, Niko Emanuilidis, Old Jewish Men, Olivia Herman and Matty, Kaido and Gojo. The company is developing shows around its other creators and films at a studio in Gowanus, Brooklyn, where it has custom sets for each show. Unicorn split profits and IP ownership 50/50 with the creators. Revenue comes from YouTube ads and brand sponsorships, along with direct-to-consumer businesses like merch, subscriptions and products. It's currently a two-man company with Dunn leading management and Gera running production. Between the lines: Dunn has rich experience in digital media. He previously worked at animal-focused media brand, The Dodo. At Doing Things, he helped create Recess Therapy and Bob Does Sports. He co-founded Little Chonk, a pet brand selling dog backpacks and other items. Dunn said he has long had an affinity for the symbolism of a unicorn. He launched a different startup with that name in 2016 that was an app for connecting early-stage investors and entrepreneurs. He repurposed Unicorn again in 2020 when launching a management firm and signing talent like Bryan Reisberg, owner of Maxine, and Cliff Brush Jr., owner of a goldendoodle named Brodie (@brodiethatdood). Follow the money: Unicorn has raised a $900,000 seed round led by Powerhouse Capital to grow its team and scale production capacity. Other investors are Cameron Kadison, manager of Bob Does Sports' Robby Berger, and Assaf Swissa, founder of creative agency Superdigital. RockWater Industries' founder Chris Erwin is a strategic adviser. What's next: Unicorn plans to sign 12 to 14 creators and develop shows around food, sports and parenting. The company is in active talks with potential hires across production, management and sales, Dunn said.
