Sales that deserve some attention heading into the weekend or a bit earlier. Five of the better sales are below, plus bonus sales if need be. Included are a few picks worth pointing out.
Allen Edmonds: Extra 20% off all Factory 2nds
- Factory Second Park Avenue Cap-toe Oxfords – $239.20 ($395 for 1sts)
- Factory Second Carlyle Oxfords – $255 ($425 for 1sts)
- Factory Second Dalton Wingtip Boots – $279.20 ($445 for 1sts)
$25 Restocking Fee on any returned Factory Seconds. Head here for an in-person look at the Allen Edmonds Factory 2nds buying experience/the risks which lie within. Since each pair of Factory 2nds shoes have been deemed an “F2” for a unique reason/cosmetic flaw, your experience may differ. That’s the gamble.
Citizen: 25% off select Promaster Watches
- Black “Fujitsubo” Promaster Super-Titanium Dive Automatic – $596.25 ($795)
- Blue on Titanium Bracelet “Fujitsubo” Promaster Super-Titanium Dive Automatic – $746.25 ($995)
Attention shoe hounds. Woodlore’s made in the USA cedar combination shoe trees are buy one get one free. Works on single pairs (they’ll send you two pairs) as well as the two packs. (They’ll send you four pairs!) Know that free shipping doesn’t kick in until $70+. So to compare it to the $19.99 trees at Nordstrom, if you only need one pair of shoe trees, those are the better deal since the Nordstrom pair will ship for free.
GAP: 50% off select (expires 7/27)
- Slim Cotton 98%, Spandex 2% Canvas Joggers with Gapflex ‘ $24.97 ($49.95) 9 colors
- 8″ inseam 98% cotton / 2% Spandex “Vintage Shorts” – $24.97 ($49.95) 14 colors
- 10″ inseam 98% cotton / 2% Spandex “Vintage Shorts” ‘ $24.97 ($49.95) 16 colors
Lots of exclusions, but for those who don’t want to spend $50+ on shorts (looking at you Huckberry!) it’s nice to see GAP has included their stretch cotton shorts in this sale.
J. Crew: 30% off Select w/ SHOPNOW
- Made in Italy Unisex 1990 MacAlister Boot in Suede – $110.60 ($158)
- Kenton Chelsea Boots – $208.60 ($298)
- Kenton Pacer Boots – $208.60 ($298)
- 6″ LINED Tech Dock Shorts – $55.65 ($79.50)
Chukkas, Chelseas, and Pacer boots. Oh my. Most feet would break out into a nervous sweat just thinking about the last two during this unbearably hot summer, but at least they’re not final sale. Not this time. And summer is clearly crepe sole chukka season. Meanwhile and not to be worn with the chukkas or other boots mentioned above, those lined tech dock shorts look like they have real potential. 57% recycled nylon/39% polyamide/4% elastane exterior fabric.
Huckberry: The Made in the USA Victory Sneakers are back – $250
No sale or promo but these are popular enough that they have a tendency to sell out. Made in Massachusetts, premium materials, nubby Vibram outsole, and they can be re-soled by the folks at Victory if/when you wear them so much that they need to be refreshed.
Also worth a mention:
- Bonobos: Extra 30% off Sale and Final Sale items w/ SUMMERFIN. Picks here if you’d like them.
- Ledbury: 30% off 3+ MTO shirts, pants, or polos (this was just at 25% off, so they’ve bumped up their offer).
- Rancourt: They’ve added a few new styles and are doing another round of their pre-sale event. Remember, you’ll have to wait until November for delivery, but it’s the only way for us regular types to get a pair of Rancourts at wholesale.
- Nordstrom: Their big Anniversary Sale is underway (but you probably knew that already).
- Brooks Brothers: Their semi-annual sale is underway. 40% off advantage chinos if you buy 2 or more, 40% off polos and tees if you buy 3 or more. 4 shirts for $249 (breaks down to $62.25 per shirt).
