Most Wanted Affordable Style – August 2025

Whether you’re looking for gift ideas or a quick upgrade for yourself, expect these to come around about once a month. You’ll find new arrivals and old favorites, especially good deals, or maybe something pricey to keep an eye on for future sales. Got a tip on something that deserves to end up in the monthly Most Wanted? Send those in to joe@dappered.com.

 

Nike Field General SUEDE – $84 w/ SPORT ($105)

If you look carefully, a few of the new Nike Field General’s color schemes are offered in all suede instead of the usual options which have nylon mesh inserts. No extra upcharge either. Not bad if you wanna keep things matte and fuzzy. See our shoe expert’s review of the Field General here.

 

BR Factory Cotton/Poly Mac – $100ish

No style of outerwear is as classy, cool, and simple as a dark Mac. No epaulets. Single breasted. And a good collar you can turn up against the wind and the rain (once we get back to those seasons). They’re long enough to cover a suit jacket or sportcoat, yet they also look dynamite dressed down with jeans and a sweater.

 

Timex Marlin Jet Automatic – $319

This version with the 24-hour subdial has been out of stock for months. Nice to see it come back. Full review here. Looks great on a black leather strap too. Timex did a terrific job with this one. Was $289. Now $319.

 

Spier & Mackay Sunglasses – $48

Spier’s back in the sunglasses game with some new styles for peak/waning summer. Haven’t been in person with these, but Spier’s sunglasses have impressed in the past.

 

Tissot PRX Automatic Powermatic 80 40mm – $775

Because talks with the Swiss allegedly aren’t going well, and the tariff rate on Swiss imports is about to jump to 39%. So if you’re into the 70’s style integrated bracelet thing, and you want it to be Swiss, well… here we are. Green dial above inspired by one of the summer’s biggest blockbusters.
