Kenneth Cole FINAL SALE Picks

Kenneth Cole FINAL SALE Summer 2010

UPDATE #2: Good Grief.  Sucks to be you if you bought something full price on Sunday.  KennethCole.com is now 40% off, sitewide, for “today only.”  If you need a suit, the Kenneth Cole 2-Button Wool Blend Jacket and matching Pant is still well under $200, and available in all sizes.  Hop to it.

UPDATE:
The 41% off store-wide sale that happened on Sat. June 26th was fun while it lasted… but since that’s over the picks that went back to full price (the suit for example) have been removed.  Instead, those have been replaced with other items that are still on sale.  And as always, only items with a decent size selection were selected.

Like yard sales and lemonade stands, the annual stampede of clearance sales from retailers is a sign that summer really has gotten underway.  You might not agree with everything the Kenneth Cole wardrobe experts suggest in their style guides, but there’s no denying that Kenneth Cole makes some terrific looking pieces.  And they’re now ready to move their overstock out to make way for the fall line.

A warning.  Since this is a final sale, there’s not returns or exchanges.  So shop carefully…

First Place Boot – $54.99 (reg $158.00)

$55 for these?  Why not two pair?

$55 for these? Why not two pair?

That’s… a hell of a good looking boot for $55. All sizes available too. The toe isn’t completely plain, but… the stitching isn’t obnoxious either. The swoop up the side and then around to the toe and back is actually pretty slick. Again… $55.00. All sizes. Nice. If you need a $360 view, check that out here on Endless.com

Corded Cotton Pinstripe Pants – $24.99 (Reg. $69.50)

A perfect summer versatile pant

Y’know that lightly structured navy blazer that you have hanging in your closet?  Or even the black one that just doesn’t look right with jeans during the summer?  Put these pants on, then put one of those blazers.  Done.

“Call Your Duff” Duffel – $69.99 (Reg. $195.00)

Modern and inexpensive.

Modern and inexpensive.

For the minimalist guy who wouldn’t be as thrilled with the retro stripes on the Hilfiger Fieldhouse Collection.  Jet black, just enough leather, perfect as a carry on or to throw in the trunk for a weekend road trip.

Leather and Canvas Messenger Bag – $49.99 (Reg. $160.00)

$50 is a small investment for a go-to bag.

If you work at a suit and tie place of business, this probably isn’t the best choice.  But not a whole lot of people do anymore.  And even for those of you that do, you might want to have something a little more casual than your leather attache for short trips, or carry-on essentials.  This is a good bag for that, and super-cheap.
