Our beloved dads hold a special place in our hearts. They comfort us, make us laugh, teach us valuable life lessons and well, they're just so amazing you can't put it to words. Since Father's day is upon us, wouldn't it be nice to honor our dads with a simple token of appreciation?

Compared to buying presents for moms, it's much more difficult to shop gifts for fathers don't you think? But don't fret! Here we've rounded up some gift ideas for any sporty dad who loves to get his heart rate going!

1. Decent Sports Watch. On top of the list has got to be something related to sports tech. Let him keep track of time in style and with the loaded features sports watches have nowadays, this will be the perfect gift that he can wear, whatever his sport of choice is.

2. Weekender bag - What's better than a great gift? One that's multi-purpose. That's what you'll be giving the special man in your life if you get them a classic leather weekender bag. Depending on the style, they can use it as a durable yet trendy sports bag and if they're heading out of town for an overnight, they can pull out the useful bag as well. Pay for something that you know your dad will be able to get a lot of mileage on. 

3. Tickets to a Game. Aside from treating a sporty dad to a game, it's actually a two-in-one gift because you're also giving them the gift of time. Spend some much-needed quality time with your dad by buying him tickets to a local or national game that includes classic beer and hot dogs snacks and give him the opportunity to be surrounded by like-minded sports fans and let him go wild!

4. Home sports equipment. If you can't bring dad to a game, let the game come home to dad. Typical sports fans will love anything that will upgrade their TV system. Be it a spiffy sound system, a better television or giving him a great reclining chair, anything that will boost the status of his "man cave" will surely be a hit this Father's day. 

5. Eye-candy Fashion. One word - sunnies. For sporty fathers, a decent pair of sunglasses will be useful and much-appreciated. Whether they enjoy tossing around the pig skin, hitting golf balls, playing tennis, baseball or going swimming, sunglasses are a great gift choice. Branded sunglasses like Oakleys or Ray-Bans are a fool-proof way to go.

Good luck in finding the perfect gift for your dad. If you've got some ideas of your own, share them with us below and help out other puzzled gift-givers.
