We’re flying half blind on this one fellas. Lord and Taylor launched what they’re calling their “One Really Big Sale” yesterday, which features half off their in house brand Black Brown 1826. If you’ve got experience with that brand (it looks to fit slightly tailored but still kinda relaxed?) leave it in the comments section below. L&T is also running an extra 20% off code, BIG… which works (for now) on some of the Black Brown 1826 items, but not on others.
The Express code 1380 gets you $15 off $30, $30 off $100, $60 off $200, and $90 off $250… making now not a bad time to pick up an Express suit if that’s your thing. Here’s how it all breaks down:
.
Mega cheap, but sizes are all over the place on the pants. Fit looks (looks) okay and the flat front pants & ticket pocket on the jacket seem to point towards a more modern lean. Pockets on the jacket could be angled a little too much. Jacket comes in S,M,L, etc… The extra 20% off code BIG seems to be working on this one for now.
Meanwhile, the extra 20% off seems to apply for the jacket, but not the pants on these Seersucker Suit Separates. Sizes are plentiful for the jacket, but the pants are in somewhat short supply. Will probably need some tailoring.
First reviewed way back in February. Now extra impressive for the price. Express took most of the “sateen” sheen out of their summer cotton twill suits and it’s a big improvement. Jacket fits well, armholes aren’t super high but aren’t low either. A nice deal for under $170. Perfect for summer wedding wear on the cheap.

From Target clearance t-shirts, to 43% off Brooks Brothers 1818 line Italian suits.
Linen-wool sportcoats, UK made dirty buck chukkas, and longingly looking (very) forward to fall.

Significant savings. While they last. Which usually isn't very long.
One of the best affordable watch releases in recent memory. Yours to win. Perhaps.
