The Thursday Handful – 7/19/12

July 19, 2012 By Joe | Heads up: Buying via our links may result in us getting a commission. Also, we take your privacy rights seriously. Head here to learn more.

.
Sales that deserve some attention when heading into the weekend.  Might not be some massive once a year event, but still worth a look.  Those are what make up the Friday Handful.  Expect these things when necessary.  Five of the better sales, one for each finger, are below.  Included are a few picks worth pointing out.

Note:  With Nordstrom’s Anniversary Sale starting tomorrow for us in the rank and file, this is a day early this week.
.

LastCall.com: Extra 40% off ONE item (exp. 7/19/12)
Free shipping no minimum with FSANN5

The Picks: Bruno Magli Bit Loafer – $209.40 ($495) | Hugo Boss Wingtip – $119.40 ($275)

Not everybody likes the look of a bit loafer, but these have a pretty clean toe and the metal looks to be darker with hopefully less shine.  The Boss wingtip is a pretty standard open-lacing wingtip for a decent price.  The free shipping no minimum code FSANN5 seems to still be working.

 

Macy’s: Extra 20% off most men’s with code EXTRA (exp. 7/22/12)
Returns free, doesn’t ship free under $99

The Picks: INC Linen Blend Blazer – $47.99 | Kenneth Cole Reaction Seersucker – $35.99

One of those few times where prices are actually a bit lower than a one day sale.  Part of a summer clearance event.  Two light and versatile blazers now get even lighter in terms of price.  Free shipping doesn’t kick in till $99 though, so there’s an extra $9.95 on top of these if you go solo.  Two more colors for the linen can be found here.

 

Aldo:  Extra 15% off if you beat this game at AldoShoeParadise.com
C’mon fall. Any time now.

The Pick: Aldo Mr. B’s Blake wingtip boot – $83.29 ($175)

Credit to Shawn W. for sending in the style tip.  It’s not quite Contra, but if you collect all 8 shoes in the game you’ll get a code for 15% off.  Word is this applies to sale shoes as well, so the dark brown version of the wingtip blake boot drops to $83.29 (the burgundy color is gone).

 

Rue La La: The FINAL Sale
No returns on these things.

The Pick: Cole Haan Montana II Duffel – $229.90 ($695) | Abboud Shawl Sweater – $44.90 ($168)

Final means no returns.  Along with their some like it/some don’t wingtip monk, there’s plenty to pick from in the Cole Haan final sale.  The old-world-luggage look isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, but for those that do like that style, an all leather duffel like the Montana II is pretty sweet at $230.  Three color options available for that one.  The shawl collar sweater is also available in grey, and is a 50/50 wool acrylic mix.

 

Brooks Brothers:  Summer Clearance now up to 50% off.
Both now at 50% off.

The Picks: Cotton Unconstructed Jacket – $124 ($248) | Linen/Cotton Trench – $199 ($398)
Looks like there might be some new additions to the Brooks Brothers summer clearance event?  Prices have dipped a bit further, that’s for certain.  The cotton sportcoat is way more than the Target version, but one can hope that the quality and feel will also be above the cheap but still good option from Merona.  The Linen/Cotton trench has real potential.  Maybe won’t keep you dry in a monsoon, but it looks terrific.

Also worth a mention: L.E.C. is doing 30% off sale items with free shipping at $50 with code WATERPARK and pin 1819 (exp. 7/19/12).  Amazon is doing 20% off select shoes and accessories over $100 with the code SUMMER12, which puts the already on sale Allen Edmonds Elgin down to $175.20 shipped.

    I’m kinda worried about the Burgundy (Bordeaux) being out of stock. I ordered them back on the 16th and they still haven’t shipped out. Hope they didn’t over-sell and have to cancel orders.

    If you pick the girl for the Aldo game you’ll have to collect 16 shoes, but man the view is much much nicer.

    Also, a tip for the Aldo game: If you have dual monitors, extend your web browser across both screens. Basically doubles the length you can see ahead of you.

    That’s a neat duffel. How’s the leather like? Any idea?

    I just bought this all leather Gladstone bag last week.

    Smells incredibly good and shipped super fast. Around the same price.

    The Boss wingtips are $80 at DSW, if you can find them.

    The duffle/weekender bag as a male “accessory” is way overstated.

    The mark-up on luggage and bags in general is quite high (which is why there are so many brands/types of bags out there) and the quality and functionality tends to be lacking with most of these higher end brand$. Most of these bags look good, but lack proper functionally for what they are intended to do. You can look great all you want, but really, if your putting style over function, then seriously……..

    When shopping for a bag, you need something that looks good, but is good quality, has a great warranty, and has proper compartments to fit your needs.

    Huge Boss wingtips: done.

    Really? We’re wearing hoodies under blazers now?

    “We” aren’t. The model is.

    Too bad those Aldo’s aren’t on sale in Cognac…

    Can anyone comment on the quality of the Hugo Boss wingtips? Thanks.

    Pole Position is a pretty cool game. 1943 is a pretty cool game. Wayne Gretzky’s 3D Hockey is a pretty cool game. This Aldo game is the most ridiculous waste of time in order to save a few dollars. But I’ll be damned if I’m going to not complete it.
