LastCall.com Extra 40% off one item – Free shipping w/ FSANN4
Extra 40% off one item sale expires 3/29/12. FSANN4 gets you free shipping no minimum
So they got bounced from the Store Wars tournament. Early. By Macy’s, who eventually bought the farm thanks to a convincing win by J. Crew Factory. One of the knocks against Last Call was that they’re not a good overall resource. They’re sort of a one-and-done for awhile shopping experience. One random thing, at a super low price, and then you cool your heels till the next big sale. Well here’s the next big sale.
40% off one item. Free shipping, no minimum with FSANN4. They might be the one-night-stand of the men’s retail world, but on occasion, they’ll wake your neighbors. Or something. That got weird.

Hush Puppies Grey Suede Loafer – $53.40 ($125)
Called the “Rem” loafer on LastCall.com, so it’s fair to assume that this is the Hush Puppies “Reminisce” loafer that usually goes for $105? 360 views available via Zappos, but they don’t seem to have the grey. Perfect looking toe shape. As simple as a suede loafer gets in a color that’ll go with almost anything.
Neiman Marcus Double Zip Dopp Kit – $33.00 ($95)
Barrels on a shotgun, Light Beer girls, and zippers on a dopp kit. There are some things that just fair better in a pair. Free shipping of course, nice looking medium brown leather.
Magnanni Handant Monk – $179.40 ($399)
Annnd there they are. An upgrade for sure from the DSW Merc double monk, but too much more of an investment. Expensive for plenty of us at pushing $180, but they ship free, and they’re something else. Made in Spain. Sizes are starting to go quick. (Magnanni’s Handant Medallion laceup is also on sale for the same price. Sizes are just about gone on that one.)
Neiman Marcus Trim Fit No-Iron Pink Check – $29.40 | Blue Gingham – $33.00
Last Call is the king of the not quite awesome but still plenty good looking affordable dress shirts. Most of what they offer is just off this list, but still plenty to scan. The lighter blue gingham is one of the safest, but far from boring bets.
Sperry Top-Sider Barrel Boat – $47.50 ($110)
Whoa. Go-to-hell… shoes? Green suede. Sure. So who’s interested?
2(x)ist All-Star Trunks in red or black – $10.20 ($22.00)
When did underwear and socks get so damn expensive? Even at 40% off, ten bucks might be too much for some guys to spend on one (count em’… one) pair of underwear. But they’re not tighty whiteys by any means.
Hugo Boss Pinstripe Wool/Cashmere Suit – $450.00 ($995)
Was a grand, now $450. Not Alfani RED prices by any means, but it’s a wool cashmere blend. During the previous LastCall sale (35% off) there was some confusion as to what was being sold. Was it a suit? Was it pants? Why would they sell pants that almost cost $500 and show a jacket too? Now it’s labeled a suit. No word on fit though so be prepared to drop more money on tailoring. Lots of patterns going on in the product photo, and that works for some, but the pinstripe could look incredible on top of a solid shirt and a toned down tie. Y’know, toned down from a shined up purple paisley.
Hugo Boss Matano Suede Wingtip – $119.40 ($295)
I like beer, oatmeal, and salmon. But not piled on top of each other. I like grey, suede, and wingtips. And unlike the Ale/Oatmeal/Fish combo, you can combine grey, suede, and wingtip styling. Down to $120. $300 seems a little friggin’ high. Don’t be surprised if they’re made in China.
Neiman Marcus Swim Trunks – $39.00 ($95)
Plain as can be. Boring to some, except for the multi-striped mesh lining. Whooo! PARTY IN MY PANTS. Does have an elastic waist, which is a no-go for some. A few colors available, and they look to be a bit longer than the current shorter swim trunk trend, but not quite board short length either.
Cotton Plaid Tie – $23.40 ($95)
Incredibly affordable, not too over the top summery (but plenty summery) and made in the USA. Yeah, made here in the states. Not bad. Ships free of course with FSANN4.
The Extra 40% off one item LastCall.com sale ends 3/29. Know that you’re on the hook for returns.
Love that tie….had to buy it. Had to.
The Tie Bar has that plaid guy for $15 (+$6 shipping). Darker variations are also available. Wonder if it’s USA made as well. http://bit.ly/H0inil
I love those boat shoes.. too bad I need to put an early halt on Spend-Like-A-MotherF&*%er-March.
There’s not a lot of double monks I like, but those are pretty nice. I’ve already splurged too much, though.
That tie is awesome
I shop Tie Bar all the time, but they do not seem to offer a single cotton necktie wider than 3″. Is there a way we can start a campaign to convince them to offer 3.5″ inch cotton ties? I have a conspiracy theory that the industry is only trying to convince the market that narrow ties, slim lapels, and short pants are fashionable so that it can charge us more for less, especially when costs are at a high. Because not everyone can pull off those looks, including myself.
I agree JC, my only problem is when these shoe companies dont bother to invest in multiple widths. I’m a EEE and sometimes can get away with a single E depending on the last its built on. Not worth chancing it with an online purchase of a regular width.
Just got the tie. Indeed, awesome.
Can anybody comment on the width of the tie?
Notre Dame’s mascot called and wants his boat shoes back
Agreed on a majority of ties being too skinny for my tastes these days, but 3.5″ is swinging the pendulum entirely the other way. I’m a fan of about 8cm / 3.125″, which is a good size for guys who aren’t as skinny as trendy ties these days.
For what its worth, I bought them and plan to return. Toe shape is too spearlike for my taste. Very nicely made though. They do run large.
Tie is great. Didnt see that when I scanned the site last night.
Really wanted to buy the suit, but didnt have my size!!!
I got afflicted by that. And combined with the oh-my-god-Cladmen-prices-are-ridiculous-February, it’s time to reel it in.
I got these socks: http://www.lastcall.com/store/catalog/prod.jhtml?itemId=prod10490037
I concur on the awesome look of that tie, but I also think I’d give Tiebar.com a look first.
There is “similar” and then there is “the same”. That Tie Bar tie really looks identical. It’s uncanny.
I got them in a prior sale and I second what Geoff said. They are very Italian pointy, to the point that it draws attention to them. They’re monk straps, so I think they should make a statement anyways, but you have to be comfortable with that look.
TTB ties are designed in the US and made in China.
TTB’s quality is really good, though, and any economic reasons for supporting US-made products are baloney (e.g. iPhones are assembled in China, but the economic benefit largely accrues to American companies and shareholders–there’s no way Apple would be as profitable if they didn’t offshore assembly, and you’d have one less company keeping this economy afloat).
Yep, had to get that tie! Thanks for the scoop, Joe.
Man, it’s crazy how much Joe loves double monk straps. They’re fine on other people, but I just can’t imagine actually owning a pair.
you couldnt pay me to wear those green sperrys, H&M used to have ties like that, but now they’re selling their own version of green sperrys.
Ah, but remember, Dappered isn’t about me (I hope to God it never gets that way… I should spend less time in the comments probably) so there’s gonna be plenty of picks that aren’t on my own persona list. That said, I’m a fan of the double monk strap, which yeah, is pretty cliche at this point. But they’re not for everyone either. Many thanks for the comment/readership Bryant…
