For more picks and all the salez salez salez for this particular holiday weekend, head here to our big round up post. And yes, we use the Skyfall rugged scenario a lot. Too much. But when the actual jacket goes on sale (as well as a very impressive and less expensive alternative) then it seemed worthy of a re (re) mention.
Plus a restock (no sale) of a favorite USA assembled dive watch.
It's nice when a brand warns their customers in advance of raising their prices.
Spring ready sneakers, grooming goods, watches, etc. Saddle up. Amazon's spring sale is on.
New sportcoats. Italian desert boots. J. Crew dips their promo-toes into spring.
From de-scaling irons to shining shoes to smelling coat pits. Let's clean up our act.
New Seikos are on sale, and J. Crew's Suit event is expiring soon.
