Best Christmas gifts for dads and father-in-laws: Top present ideas for 2019
There's no better way to say thank you to your dad for always being there for you than getting him the perfect Christmas present.
While your dad would probably still be happy with another Charles Tyrwhitt tie and shirt as long as it's given with love, why not get him something different for once?
He'll appreciate that Saphir Medaille d'Or 1925 valet box after weeks of perfect looking shoes or the golf masterclass once he's an absolute pro.
We love giving presents to our parents, which is why we've put together this list with some amazing ideas for what to get your dad - or father-in-law this Christmas.
Grooming
1. Saphir Medaille d'Or 1925 Valet Box at Lissom + Muster
Your dad will find Sephir wax polishes, brushes and a polishing cloth in this smart wooden box which features a leather handle and brass clasps. Those shoes will be so shiny he'll be able to see his face in them.
Fashion
2. Polo Ralph Lauren Preppy Bear Jumper
Forgive the sweeping generalisation, but sometimes our dads (and father-in-laws) could do with a little sartorial help and this smart toasty knit by Ralph Lauren is just the thing to update his 'look'.
3. Snakehive Leather Bifold Wallet
Get this sleek leather wallet to put their cards in. And, its slimline so they won't have to walk around with bulky pockets.
4. Swole Panda Superior Style Sock Box
You've got to love a bright and bold sock. Upgrade your old pa's collection with this gift set of six pairs by Swole Panda. Made from environmentally friendly bamboo, they're extremely soft and antibacterial too.
Food and Drink
5. Maker's Mark Bourbon whisky
Is he a whisky lover? Then snap up a bottle of Maker's Mark. This American Bourbon is handmade and only ever produced in small batches so is guaranteed to be something special. And if you want to go extra festive then head into an Asda or Morrisons where you can buy a bottle dressed in its own Christmas jumper.
6. Stilton and Port Gift Box
Present him with his own mini hamper on Christmas morning filled with cheese and wine. With any luck he'll share the spoils with the whole family.

7. Sophie Conran Large Bamboo Plant Cover Set Of Three
If you've got a green-fingered dad or father-in-law, this might be a nice idea - what a great way to protect young plants from furry friends (or he could simply use it to decorate the garden).
8. Personalised Name Bottle Opener by Oakdene Designs
This is a great little stocking filler. Have your father's name, or just 'Dad' cut into a stainless steel bottle opener. Nifty, and definitely useful over Christmas.
Sport and Culture
9. The Telegraph Custom Gift Book
From £50, The Telegraph Bookshop
Treat them to our Custom Gift Book. Containing every front page of The Telegraph from a special date in the recipient's life, this bespoke gift is a custom-made journey back in time.
10. Golf Masterclass with a PGA Pro and Lunch
Whatever his handicap on the course, he'll love the opportunity to play with a PGA Pro. First there's a lesson with expert tips, before heading out onto the fairway to try out his new skills.
Tech
11. Revo SuperSignal Walnut And Aluminium Digital Radio
£199.95, John Lewis & Partners
Sign him up to the digital revolution and he can tune into radio stations from all over the world. Whatever his favourite genre of music, there's a station for him.
12. Alcatel 3L Smartphone
If he's in dire need of a new smartphone, but anything super techy will leave him scratching his head, skip the lastest iPhone and get him this reasonably priced mobile by Alcatel instead. It definitely does the job.
