CLAD Sale Part IV – The Point of No Return

By | Heads up: Buying via our links may result in us getting a commission. Here's why.

CLAD’S Really Final NO RETURNS ALLOWED Sale – Use FEBFAMILY for extra 25% off

As one of the greatest heroes in the history of cinema once said, “this is it… don’t get scared now.”  But maybe a bit of natural retail fear is a good thing.  Because from here on out, you can’t return a CLAD purchase made on or after today, 2/15/12.  The proof:

And there you have it.  Things just got real risky.  Shipping is still free and the code FEBFAMILY still takes 25% off your order.  Doesn’t look like they’ve added much to the sale section, but this is what has slipped through the cracks:
.

Tateossian Twisted Knot Cufflinks – $38.92  ($150)
Made in England. Nice detail.

Might be the answer for those of us who don’t like much shine to our cuff links, but need to dress it up w/more than silk knots from time to time.  Option shown is gunmetal.  There’s also silver and a gold options.

 

Wolverine No. 1883 Branson Gore-Tex Hiker – $52.43 ($205)
The right mix of form and function.

What the… Gore Tex and they look that good?  For this cheap?  That’ll work and then some.

 

D.S. Dundee Flannel Cargo Trousers – $50.93 ($195)
Would wear. Very much so.

The zero tolerance cargo pants guys still wouldn’t take a shot at these, but the side pockets are just slashes, the fabric looks incredible, and instead of belt loops they have those nifty side button tabs.  Maybe?

 

Gitman Bros Dotted Bowtie – $24.68 ($95)
If you're the type.

For those of us who don’t wear bowties, these are the bowties that make us wish we wore bowties.  Made in the USA, wool and silk, under $25 shipped.

 

Michael Bastian for RE Aviators – $59.18 ($225)
But how will they look on your face?

They do have the sweat bar, which is kinda goofy to some, and buying sunglasses over the internet is a bit of a risk even when you can return them.  Was $225, couple of big names on these, down to under $60.

 

CLAD Cashmere Crewneck and V-Neck Reverse Seam Sweaters – $51.68 ($198)
Lots of colors and sizes.

These appear to have just been added to the sale section.  “A CLAD exclusive.”  Okay.  Cashmere that was pushing $200, now down to just over $50.  Claims to have a modern fit.  Remember, you can’t return them.

 

Fratelli Rossetti Wingtip Brogues – $155.93 ($595)
Slightly good looking.

There’s some pretty common sizes left on these.  Not all the sizes, but some common ones.  Was almost $600.  Made in Italy.  Leather soles.

 

Peter Millar Black Merino Wool V-Neck – $37.43 ($145)
Low risk, high reward.

This looks to be one of the safest bets.  Under $40 shipped for a black merino wool v-neck, with a V that doesn’t dip too deep, and a fit that claims to be trim.  Doesn’t look the slimmest on the model, but… it’s a model.  All sizes available as of this morning except for XL.

 

SeaVees High Top Army Issue Sneaker – $30.68 ($118)
Low top would have been perfect.

Still there.  Still pretty great looking.

 

BOSS Black Wool Stripe Sport Coat – $129.68 ($495)
But what if the shoulders don't fit?

No chest pocket, a modern fit, and made from wool.  Has come down a little in price, even during this sell off madness period.  Sizes are scattered with a few common sizes left.

 

AND THE THING THAT WILL NOT SELL:  Scott James Argyle Cashmere Sweater – $77.18 ($295)
Thar's noo beh-er puddin' than tha JELL-OH puddin.

100% cashmere.  Don’t care.  This is what happens when a Cosby Sweater gets wasted on single malt and starts trying to sound like he’s from Glasgow.  If you’re game, then you’ve got more guts than me.

Don’t forget the extra 25% off code FEBFAMILY.  Remember, these are all final sale items so you can’t return or exchange them.  Does that mean you’re staying away?  Is it just too risky?  Leave it all below.  Sale ends 2/29

Comments

  2. I like the sunglasses but I’ve already made the mistake of buying sunglasses over the internet before, its a mistake I won’t make again. Unless they put up something amazing I’m done  ordering, placed 3 orders total since the sale began. Now that its final sale I really don’t want to risk it. Love that sport coat though.

  3. I got a pair of suede shoes I liked when the fire sale first started, but honestly almost all of the crap on there is still pretty overpriced.   Real easy to see how this crashed and burned.

  5. Any reviews on the Wolverine boots?

    I have the Timberland Abington Farmer boots.. While they are, I had a hard time walking with the heel being so stubborn and almost steel like.. I also feel they’re a tad tall.. 

  6. I ordered both the Peter Millar v-neck and the Clad cashmere v-neck. They are both definitely NOT trim fit, though of the two, the Clad was a slightly better fit. The Clad was a solid material, not paper thin, but not bulky either. Another word of warning: the Clad sweater started to pill significantly after just one day, both on the sleeves and where the sleeves rub against the sides.

  7. I’m all over the Vintage Bluff Boot, but can’t bring myself to pull the trigger now that I won’t be able to return them if the sizing is off.

    Can anyone shed some light on the sizing? Anyone?

  9. That bowtie is awfully tempting, especially in the blue pindot. Maybe I’ll buy it if it’s still in stock when I get back from class.

  10. I’ve bought about 9 shirts, a bag, and a hoodie during this sale. Guess I’ll go back one more time.

  11. Anyone know sizing on these Wolverines? 

    I need some boots for if the winter gets bad and for the slush to come, these look perfect for the price.

  14. If you decide to spring for them, be aware that Rossettis tend to run about a size larger than listed. I bought the Neros in a 9 and they fit well, even though I’m usually a 10. 

  20. Just picked up four ties, a very cool dress shirt, a pair of sevens jeans, pocket square and four pairs of undies for $230.  I had previously bought a hugo suit and blazer (tried them on at Harry Rosen before ordering) and a ton of other stuff for easily 50%+ off what I’d pay in Canada. I’ll be sad when the site goes lights out.

  22. I picked up a pair of those cargo trousers in olive. Beautiful, beautiful flannel fabric, lots of flecks of different colors up close. If they had been regular flannel trousers, they’re a steal; as cargo trousers … well, it depends on how you feel about pockets. There’s one pair left of the olive ones if anyone’s interested.

    Also tried and returned the grey ones you’re featuring–also great fabric, but I didn’t really need a pair of dark charcoal flannel trouser.I found that I needed to size up one, otherwise they were way too tight in the thighs on me. The cargo pockets are obviously more discreet than your typical flapped bellows pocket, but they do show a bit more than I expected. Also, since the pocket is welted instead of patched on, it is a bit annoying having it inside the leg of the trouser.

    Overall, though, I’m very happy with them, and can’t wait to get them hemmed and taken in at the waist.

  23. I can’t think about Wolverine boots without also thinking about the mall scene in Jean-Claude Van Damme’s TimeCop.  So good.

  27.  Well damn, it looks like Im going to have the same problem Im guessing. Potentially too tight. I can wear J crew vintage slim chinos in my normal size with no problem. Any ideas how these compare to those? Are these much slimmer?

  28. Dunno. I’m kinda big-thighed, so take my feedback with a grain of salt. I also prefer my dress trousers to fit a bit looser than my denim or chinos.

  32. I might buy a pair of those wing tips and if they don’t fit I’ll frame them and put them up on the wall so I can look at them.

  34. Bought those a couple weeks back. I’m a US 8.5 and there was a good inch of room in the toe.  Glad I could send them back at the time.

  36. Received the Fratelli Rossetti brown Classic Oxford today and they definitely run extra large.  Based on what I read online, I took a chance on the 7.5s although I usually wear an 8, and they fit perfectly.  The York driving mocs look nice for the price, but I’m not sure how I’d match them to an outfit.

    The Robert Talbott Solid Twill Dress Shirt runs huge.  What is the opposite of slim fit?

  37. I got mine yesterday and just wanted to say that it’s a great pair of boots. Mine came in a little dusty, possibly from having sat in a shelf somewhere for a long time but a few quick rubs with an old t-shirt later they were just fine. 

    The most important thing to think about when you’re buying these, is that they’re decidedly not formal. You’re not going to be able wear these under a suit to work, not unless the guys who work with you also spend their time looking at Pitti Uomo street shots. The soles are chunky vibrams. The leather looks like it’s aged a little bit and the  color is a burnt orange, closer to the red brick sole than it is to brown

    As for sizing, the toe box is a little narrow for my taste, but that’s probably just me. I usually have to get Allen Edmonds and Aldens in their wider lasts anyways. Length wise, the fit is great. 

    That being said, I love them. They’re really flavor of the moment. Rugged wingtips are having a bit of a moment right now and I don’t have to dress formally for work, so I look forward to wearing them all the time. 

  39. Picked up the penny- one size smaller than my usual.

    I’m not too sure how much room there is supposed to be in the toe box. My heel slips a little, but I read somewhere that once it’s broken it, the back will hug.

    Also I have one foot slightly smaller than the other and that slips a little more. Any suggestions on what to do?

  40. Brave souls…

    I’m super iff as I’m an odd sized gent.  Short and wide.

    Anyone offhand know how Incotex Inside trousers fit?  I’m digging those red chinos but unsure as to the cut and how big to go as sometimes I am inbetween a 40 and 42 waist…

  42. Took me about a week, bought some jeans. One thing, they ship UPS, so if you live in the city, might be a problem unless you have a doorman. Also, the box they used was freaking huge, could have fit 2 pairs of shoes.

  44. Unfortunately they are too tight on me as well. I can get them on and buttoned, just skin tight in the seat and thighs- 32×30- shoulda sized up. Also a little too heavy for the Arizona winters. Off to eBay they go.

  45. So … I went ahead & sprung for those Fratelli Rossetti wingtips. As it happens I got the very last pair available, which were size 10. I normally wear 10.5. Received them on Tuesday. Size 10 is still large – extra toe room – so if I get any shoes from this brand in the future I’ll look for 9.5. Otherwise a good fit, pretty comfortable for a day’s wear, too. And of course they are just sweet-looking. Thanks for the heads-up on this one, Joe.
