This year, Father’s Day falls in a few days on Sunday, June 19. We’ve been spending the past month at the Strategist looking into the best Father’s Day gifts — including affordable options, fancy options, and gifts from Black-owned businesses. But by now, you’re probably just wondering if you can even get a gift delivered in time.
Fear not. To make things easier for you, we’ve pulled together a list of last-minute gifts across a range of price points. Order any of these today and they’ll arrive by Father’s Day. And if you’re truly last-minute, we’ve made a note of the absolute last day you can order each time using Amazon Prime, for guaranteed delivery before the 19th.
