BR Extra 25% off Sale Items: Use Code BRSALE25
Code good through Tuesday 7/20
Finding ties for under $30, shoes for under $50, and polos for under $20 is a rare occurrence at Banana Republic. By the time prices get that low the items are usually tossed in the clearance section, and everything but XS and XXL has been taken away. For a limited time you can double up discounts, take an extra 25% off Banana Republic regular sale items, and all of a sudden those low prices become reality.
Use the code BRSALE25 at checkout. The code is good through Tuesday July 20th. Picks have been limited to items with a wide variety of sizes, or where sizes need not apply (like the ties you see right down there…)

B.R. Silk Pindot-stripe Tie | Linen/Silk Solid Tie – $29.99 (reg. $49.50)
Keeping your ties simple is a must, and the silk pindot-stripe is about as busy as you want to get. But the styling of the extra detail is perfect. Juts two widths of accent stripes on a deep blue background. Wear it with a solid suit and it’ll look terrific. The Silk/Linen blend tie leans heavily towards warm weather, but… you could wear it in the fall to add extra color to your business wardrobe.

Gibson Perforated Driving Loafer – Cement: $44.99 | Tan: $52.49 (reg. $98.00)
Adding perforations to a driving loafer seemed like somewhat of a risk a few months ago… but now when they’re on sale, in almost all sizes, for 45 bucks? That’s not so much of a risk anymore. Go with the gray “cement” color and you could wear those with chinos and dark jeans for the next couple of months.
.
Pima Cotton Double Stripe Polo – $18.74 (reg. $44.50)
The Pima Cotton (as opposed to Pique) makes it smooth and light. The reviews saying they run a little small are encouraging for a trimmer fit. Double Block stripes make it interesting but not obnoxious.
.
Relaxed Cotton Linen Striped Pant – $44.99 (reg. $69.50)
Notice the fit says “relaxed.” Some of the reviews mention that the legs are pretty wide, but it’s summer, these are linen, and the extra breeziness could help you stay extra cool. If not? There’s always your tailor.
.
Double Prong Belt in Deep Army Green – $29.99 (reg. $49.50)
You probably have a black, brown, and some sort of fabric belt in your casual belt arsenal. This isn’t any of those. Double prongs on a deep dark army green belt makes this thing unique. Not a bad looking year round jeans belt if you ask me.
Don’t forget. The extra 25% off only applies to items that are already on sale. Use the code BRSALE25 at checkout. Code is only good through Tuesday the 20th.
Asos.com has 50-70% off right now with an additional 10% off that. Might want to jump on it before it expires. There are a few jackets, cardigans, and button-downs that are great deals.
That is a pretty damn good deal, but I have a problem with Asos. I can’t stand 2 things: First, they have like 10,000 items; Second, most of their models look anything but stylish imo.
For the first part, I could use a few cardigans and other sweater-type items for the coming fall and winter, so I searched for that. I got over 500 results, most of which were weird combinations of light purple, teal, etc.. some looked like bowling shirts gone sweater mode. So I tried limiting by only blue items, and still have almost 200 results. You know, there is a saying: You can tell the quality of a restaurant by the number (or lack thereof) of items on their menu (or something like that). Same here. With so many items, how can they possibly all be quality.
If I could shop ASOS in a physical store and see their items for myself I might feel more secure making a few purchases, but even with that crazy discount it isn’t worth dealing with overseas shipping and possibly needing to return (which, even with automatic postage printouts is still annoying to deal with).
Hang on Bryan… let me do some digging (you still might want to skip it though with the overseas shipping, even though it’s pretty cheap?) Adam… full credit coming your way sir. Good catch.
