Macy’s One Day Sale
Picks – April 3 – 4, 2011
As always, it’s incredibly tough to peg when Macy’s will launch a One Day Sale. Sometimes a month and a half will go by between them, sometimes only a few weeks will pass. One thing is certain: These are usually sales worth paying attention to. The one-day sale prices are some of the best mark downs in the retail industry. Here’s some of the best from the One-Day-Sale which runs Tues. April 3 – Wed. April 4. Items marked with a * are “Web Busters.” In store prices may or may not match up. Selection on all items (especially shoes) in store can vary greatly.
.
Hilfiger Shawl Collar Tuxedo Suit Separates – $295.98* ($550)
This just in: Somebody actually makes a shawl collar tux that comes in suit separates. Not peak, not notch, but a shawl. Who knew? Under $300, which isn’t the lowest Hilfiger Trim Fits get, but this is enough of a freak that if you’re in the market for a tux, want a shawl, and don’t want to spend an arm and a leg, this might be worth a look. Extra 20% off happens when you dump it in your cart.
Perry Ellis Web Belts – $18.99* ($39.50)
The low risk, low cost option of trying out the web spring/summer belt trend. Under $20 and dead simple. Etched logo is barely noticeable on the slim roller of the buckle.
The Thicker Dress Shirts: Kors – $29.75* ($59.50) | Hilfiger – $32.50* ($65)
So you don’t like those super thin, cheap poplin dress shirts you’ll find hanging in many a department store. Both of these should satiate your appetite for beefier fabric. The Kors is going to need some tailoring, but after that investment you’ll have a potential anchor for your dress shirt lineup. The Hilfiger is that Ithaca slim fit with a bit of oxford feel to it. Many guys like these quite a bit, and the reviews for both are positive.
Stacy Adams Telford Suede – $49.99* ($70)
Haven’t seen em’ and I think we all know that Stacy Adams isn’t exactly Allen Edmonds. But $50 for a pair of summer ready suede upper / rubber sole shoes? Hell. Cut the grass in them.
DKNY Charcoal Slim Fit Suit Separates – $279.98* ($550)
DKNY suiting (or in this case, separates) is worth the extra investment if you can afford it, but aren’t exactly flush with cash to the point where you’d go the Suit Supply route. Slim lapels on this one, and while navy overtook charcoal as the #1 color to have awhile back, charcoal is still plenty versatile. Extra 20% off happens when you dump it in your cart.
Hilfiger Navy Glen Plaid Slim Fit – $279.99* ($650)
Or, there’s this. Not your normal solid navy by any stretch, but the tonal glen plaid keeps it subtle. Wool, the Hilfiger trim fit silhouette (warning: Shoulders might be too strong for some) and a sub $300 price on a suit that’s got a lot of character. Probably will need tailoring. Extra 20% off comes off in the cart to get to $279.
Polo Ralph Lauren Pima Cotton Crew – $36.99 ($98)
Doesn’t say anything about fit, so it’s fair to assume that it’s not going to be the much closer “custom” fit that RL produces. Which… note to the guys at RL… make more of that fit. Still a great looking sweater in smooth Pima cotton.
KCNY Summer Suiting – CHECK IN STORE
Forget online for now. Check in store first. Saw these hanging in a brick and mortar under signs that had them priced for $150 – $170 total. So, Overstock.com prices. That’ll vary from store to store, so don’t get your hopes up. They’re cotton and they fit pretty decent off the rack. If you want an ultra-cheap summer suit that you can still dress up for weddings, these are as good as it’ll get for under $200. Cotton is a little stiff, and the tan/khaki looks more over-saturated than shiny in person, but they both look more than decent. Especially for the price.
.
Hilfiger Taft V-Neck – $14.99 ($39.98)
Just a cotton V-neck sweater for fifteen bucks. Was $40, seems outrageously low priced for online (maybe it’s some kind of mistake?) and the reviews are all solid. Probably not the trimmest fitting thing in the world. But again, $15.
Calvin Klein Garrison Suede Chelsea – $83.99 ($150)
A light grey blazer, jeans, and these. Not a bad way to spend a random Wednesday or Thursday night out in the spring. Well under $100 and the reviews on other sites selling them for over $100 are promising.
Bulova Automatic Rectangle Case – $281.25 ($375)
A bit of a splurge, but it’s an automatic, appears to have good proportions for a rectangular case watch, and the cutout on the dial isn’t too much of a distraction. Exhibition case back as well. Movement is Japanese, and the diameter is somewhere between 34 and 35 mm. Also available over at Amazon
The current Macy’s One Day Sale ends Wednesday 4/4.
Has anyone seen those Stacy Adams oxfords in person? Curious about the quality.
The belts are really nice!

KS4GRL works for the suits: 10% off
That DKNY suit looks pretty good. I wonder how the length is… I think I remember trying one on and the jacket being really, really long in my regular size.
Love the suede shoes. The sale section also seems to include some decent shorts. Opportunity to stock up before summer?
There’s also a coupon for 10 off 25 for all sale and clearance items for the one day sale. Here is a link I found on slickdeals.net

FYI on the Perry Ellis Belt: I bought it in navy last summer, and have worn it as my regular belt since then. Solid quality and looks good; great buy for that price.
It’s Stacy Adams and there $50, not sure what you are expecting in terms of quality…
Is that the belt buckle? Seems awfully big…
I normally just try to match my belt with my shoes, so haven’t taken the plunge on the web belts yet. This looks like a good opportunity, but I have no idea how to wear it or which color to get. Leaning towards white.
Joe, belt article?
FWIW, I just went to a brick and mortar Macy’s and the prices didn’t match up on some of these items in-store. The suede Stacy Adams were $60 and the Hilfiger v-necks were a full $40. The store rep looked at me like I was crazy when I mentioned they were $15 online…oh well.
Bought a pair a few weeks ago. They actually aren’t bad. Nothing fancier than the average pair of bucks, plus a little wingtip bonus. Haven’t had any problems yet. Comfortable and great for casual wear.
I regret buyin Chelsea boots. They just flop at the ankle too much without laces.
I do like those belts. Someone on Threads was asking about belts like these yesterday. Will have to point them here!
FWIW I’ve had good luck in showing them the online price and getting a match.
Macy’s Mens near Union Square in SF had those KCNY suits at $200 or more.
They also had some morning deals that ended at 1pm.
Wait since when is navy the new “in” color?
Nice but too bad the shirt prices are “web busters” which I assume are only online
Are the sizes that limited in the Stacy Adams? Thats a bit disappointing… And I like those “low risk” belts too. Simple yet satisfying
This worked on my order as well (a belt). Thanks
Good for you. I tried in both departments and no dice.
I own the Hilfiger tux, but in Notch. Would buying the shawl jacket separately be fine or should I legitimately be worried that they come from different dye lots (in spite of being part of the same set)?
I thought tuxedos are classically found with peak lapels?
Also, drop this coupon code for $10 off $75 or more (

You’re right though most consider the shawl to be a classic alternative. There are people out there who claim a notch lapel tux to be an abomination. Shawl always gets a pass.
how long ago did you get the pants? hopefully they’ll be the material/dye hasnt changed
I think its the “web buster” prices that dont transfer to stores?
Dammit, most items only ship to USA. Might consider the oxfords…
Nice watch.
Thanks for posting this! Got the Stacy Adams in-store at the online price, $50 bones.
I went and checked out the Oxfords today. The sole was foam, is that how all oxfords are, or is that the cheap quality of Stacy Adams?
