Reading Time: 4 minutesFinding a gift for Dad before Father’s Day isn’t as easy as it seems. For starters, he often says that he doesn’t need anything, and what he wants is to spend time with you. But he probably also taught you a long time ago to never show up to a celebration empty-handed. So when you end up searching for something to unveil on the big day—sidestepping that wish for a long-held rule—it’s no wonder that you’re not sure what he’ll enjoy.
Thankfully, DICK’S Sporting Goods understands what dads are hoping for on their holiday, even if they don’t exactly say it. They usually want gifts that can provide memories with their kids. Ahead of 6/20, this experience-making superstore has put together a list of gifts for all types of Dads, from storytellers and hikers to comfort seekers and sports fans.
