Also good on IZOD and Van Heusen. Expires 3/20. Thanks to Adam for the styletip
Calvin Klein has been fading into the woodwork. Yes the brand has fully wrapped themselves in the cool colors/ simple palate flag. But they’re coming awful close to ignorable. They do still offer affordable basics, and thanks to their friends and family sale, those affordable basics have now become downright cheap.
Along with Phillips Van-Heusen corp. mates G.H. Bass, IZOD, and Van Heusen (they’re just a Dress Barn, Big Dogs and a few bathrooms away from an outlet mall)… you can knock an extra 30% off anything during this sale with the code FRIENDS11. Sale & Clearance items too. Here’s a few picks:
UPDATE: Looks like the BASS site isn’t supporting the code. Or any code for that matter. Thanks to Eddy in the comments section for figuring this out… odd for sure.

Both were already reduced but now they’re a huge bargain. The Bryant Slim Chino is pretty easy to find in most Macy’s Department stores, and the color selection looks good for warm weather prep. The Brushed Cotton Pants? Those are a bit of a mystery. But with the jean like patch and front pockets they look to potentially be a middle ground between jeans and standard khakis.

Good for the guys who want a penny loafer, but aren’t in love with the usual, stubby, Fatherly style. Slightly slimmer. Nice looking silhouette. Sizes are a bit limited.
.
For the guys who just can’t embrace leather as their go to work brief material. Two available colors, top handles, shoulder strap, couple pockets. Can’t ask for much more at under $50.

About as plain as a dressed up boot can get. They’ve appeared on Dappered before. Some didn’t like em’, some did (see the comments section on this post).

This one’s a risk. Never seen it in person and Calvin Klein suits (outside of their BODY line) have usually been, oh, okay. $260 is a good chunk of change to drop on a suit, but if you want a light grey with what looks to be (damn internet photos) a lighter less harsh glen plaid? This might be your huckleberry.

Just different enough? Or too different? Plimsoll foundation with leather laces and a few extra details. The navy’s white contrast stitching is a nice look.
The Calvin Klein, Bass, IZOD, and Van Heusen Friends and Family sale ends Sunday 3/20. Use the code FRIENDS11 at checkout for the 30% off discount. Note that the above Bass links aren’t direct due to the way their website is setup.
Suede boots, Swiss watches, and yes... workout gear.
Significant savings. While they last. Which usually isn't very long.
