UPDATE: Looks like the code is netting free shipping for some? Here’s to hoping that keeps up…
Brace yourself for a(nother) convoluted retail to sports simile. Triple-A ball is like Nordstrom Rack and Neimann Marcus Last Call. AA would be stores like Marshalls, TJ Maxx, Ross Dress for Less, and also… Loehmann’s.
Loehmann’s is only in 12 states, their website can be a little clunky, but they run extra % off sale codes with some regularity. This one, PRIV2012 gets you an extra 20% off. Shipping is a flat $6.99. Time to dig:
.
Twenty bucks? Sure. Cotton with some kind of coated finish on it to hopefully keep water and wind at bay. Better looking than a cheap nylon windbreaker for sure. Nice Harrington style collar and white zippers.
UPDATE: Annnnd, these are just about gone. Almost all sizes were available. They went quick…
Red pants that aren’t RED pants. They certainly stand out, but they’re not some nuclear neo. Bright, but deeper. And if you’re going to experiment with the bright pants thing, might as well only spend $16.
A warning on these. They’re nice, but personal experience from this side has shown that they’re a bit touchy when it comes to the dryer. Mine shrank up about an inch and a half or two inches, making it wearable, but barely. So know that. Great if you’re a shorter guy though. Still a little steep at $32 plus shipping.
There’s been a rash of underwear companies switching from exact waist sizes, to a too bulky, diaperish Small, Medium, Large, XL size strategy. And like most things that involve “rash” and “underwear”… that’s not good. These come in exact sizes, and three for fourteen bucks (plus shipping?) isn’t a bad deal at all.
Short Sleeve Button Ups (SSBUs) aren’t for everyone. But they’re trying to make a comeback. More on these tomorrow, but what you want, is something that fits close and doesn’t drop too low. These seem to fit the bill.
Slim? Or skinny? Their site doesn’t give a width. That’s not a recipe for selling a lot of neck-wear, since the width of a tie is kinda key, and most guys have a personal preference. These look real slim leaning skinny. A call to customer service went nowhere, since the rep said they don’t have access to measurements or the products themselves. Pass.
Probably not for you since it looks so lady-like, but what about for the lady you like? Maybe with a pair of tickets to a not too far away city that you can head to for a long weekend? Or maybe a single ticket for her to go visit a friend she hasn’t seen in forever…
