Is your dad a car guy? He can toast his friends in four languages with these old fashioned glasses. Each glass has a 13-ounce capacity ($55). And don’t worry, if your dad loves cars but not drinking, they have car apparel, accessories and other specialty products revved up online.

You can’t go wrong with a round of golf, and why not tee it up at one of North America’s Top 75 Golf Resorts (Ranked #48 by Golf Digest).
