Now that Black Friday and Cyber Monday are nothing but quickly evaporating memories, retailers and their websites have taken a relatively new approach to entice holiday shoppers to buy, well, now.
They’re using category flash sales. Brooks Brothers is doing it, and so’s Endless. A brand or retailer puts one specific type of their merchandise (leather goods, sweaters, women’s accessories) up for sale at a good sized discount, but the sale only lasts for one day. Brooks Brothers had small leather goods for men at 40% off a few days ago, and you could have swiped this sweet Golden Fleece embossed card case for something like $50 – $60.
Today on Endless? “Select” (damn, there’s that word again) designer shoes for 40% off.
90% of the selections aren’t all that appealing. But there’s some good ones in there too. Here’s a few in a couple different price ranges:
.
Hey look at that. A simple monk strap under $150. Yes, it’s made in China. But the toe looks nicely rounded, and the brand claims to make ultra comfortable shoes.
.
Finally. A plain, Italian Made slip on loafer at a reasonable price. Nice looking sweep of stitching towards the heel too. Toe is perfect. Again, made in Italy. Could become your new go-to casual Friday / wear it to the airport shoe.
.
Like the above loafer, made in Italy. Nice subtle cap stitching, with what they describe as a “squared” off toe. Doesn’t look too blunt to me, and it slightly resembles the Kenneth Cole Regal King. More stitching sweeps on the side make it lean modern but not in a crazy over the top way.
.
Even at 40% off these things are a bundle. Somewhat conservative looking. Made in Italy.
.
Here’s a double monk strap for the shoe fiends. Was $500, under three bills for today only.
Those are some of the around 200 men’s styles to chose from. If you had to pick, which one would you wear?
Three days only. Most full price + sale stuff too. Italian wool suits. Flagship chinos.…
When the phrase "go jump in a lake" is part of the day's plans.
