This post will be updated over the next few days as more sales roll in. So if you so desire, check back in between flipping burgers and whatnot. We’ll be tracking the salez salez salez. Have a safe and fun Labor Day Weekend.
There are exclusions of course, but it’s worth noting that there are some carve-outs within those exclusions. For example: Weekday warrior non iron dress pants are excluded in the icon colors. But there are plenty of other colors which are getting the 30% off. Jetsetter suit separates are excluded, yet that particular dark navy glen plaid is getting the 30% off cut. Works on sale and final sale items. Final sale stuff can’t be returned or exchanged. Sale ends Wednesday.
Just launched on Monday. All final sale though. No returns or exchanges. Code FALL70 ends Tuesday night.
As BR Factory is not mainline Banana Republic, but instead a step down “outlet” styled brand which is almost always having a “big” sale, it’s worth remembering that 50% off MSRP is good, 60% off is great, and more than that is rare. So to do the quick math with the extra 20% off the marked down price…
So yes. This is a good one. 50% – 70% off + the extra 20% off is currently set to run through 9/2.
Cheap stuff, more expensive stuff, clothes and shoes. Contemporary gear as well as more classic leaning styles. Those Dropset 3 weightlifting/training shoes are a bit of a random mention, but for those who like to pump some iron and/or do HIIT training and prefer a less squishy and more stable platform… they’re pretty great. Super ventilated too, and they run a bit wide on purpose to accommodate for foot expansion during intense workouts.
When Brooks Brothers sale items get an extra cut, as they are now, there’s almost always some steals to be had. Especially when it comes to their sportcoats. No code needed. Discount hits when you put the item in your cart. Extra 25% off ends Wednesday 9/3.
Full review of those suede chukkas can be found here. They’re expensive at full price (read: overpriced), but on sale and getting an extra 25% off = tempting and then some.
Anyone else want to get excited about boot season approaching? Grant Stone is a major favorite around these parts. Their commitment to quality is serious, and their designs and materials are both timeless and often unique in a crowded field of heritage workwear inspired boots and timeless classics. A few different widths available depending on the model. Tap your width and then the sizes available should load. As long as it’s not a B-grade or Pre-Owned, you should be able to return or exchange. Returns will set you back a $15 pre-paid label/restocking fee, whereas exchanges are free of charge.
UPDATE: This changed for the better. No more “up to” 40% off. It’s a flat 40% off with the code WEEKEND. Exclusions apply as usual, but they did add a bunch of new stuff in heading into the weekend. New picks here.
New items have been added too. All final sale. No returns or exchanges. And you’ll need to manually plug in the code WEEKEND at checkout for the additional 50% off.
Of all consumer goods, Swiss watches have been some of the hardest hit by tariffs. But thanks to bulk importing their watches (instead of shipping direct to their customers where the tariff would be calculated by the full MSRP), Christoper Ward has been able to roll back the additional 29% tariff implemented when the original 90 day pause expired. There are still tariffs, but the price you see is the price you pay (excluding any mandatory local and state sales tax). No more extra charges at checkout, and the prices are back to where they were in July, if not lower. It’s called Tariff Engineering, and it’s absolutely a thing.
Feels like the end of the line for the stuff in their sale section as all of it appears to be final sale. No returns or exchanges. So be extra certain before you complete any purchase.
A solid sale from VAER, and it includes a couple of their bestsellers too. That C5 Ameriquartz is quite the GADA (go-anywhere, do-anything) watch. 40mm case size is wearable by almost all, 20mm lug width is as common as it comes, and even the bracelet has quick release pins. So swapping it out for a leather strap (or the free rubber strap it comes with) is super easy. 100m of water resistance and a screw down crown means it can be a faithful companion in and out of the water, worry free. Assembled in the USA and even uses a manufactured in the US Ameriquartz movement.
Goodfellow, All in Motion, etc. And there’s a lot of “etc.” in there to sift through. Yet there are some favorites from Goodfellow and All in Motion too.
Includes a few unexpected models, like some of their new “Icons” collection. That silver tone automatic shown above is of particular note… 21 jewel Miyota automatic movement, leather strap with deployant clasp, and smart looks. It’s certainly not a cheap Timex, but it does look like a watch which should cost a lot more. Code Sunset25 is set to expire at Midnight PT on 9/2.
Being that Darn Tough doesn’t run sales themselves, if you wanna save a few bucks, then you have to catch a sale at REI or somewhere else which carries them. Made in Vermont, merino blend, lots of different styles, cushioning levels, etc. They’re the best.
A mix of dress, casual, and some sneakers. They say “almost everything,” but… that appears to be a bit of a stretch. There’s plenty of exclusions. Depending on the model & color, some common sizes appear to be moving out the door though. Lots of Blake stitched in Portugal models. No code needed.
Ends Monday night. Full picks are here. A few final sale items but most of it can be returned/exchanged.
Eneds Monday night. This is mainline Banana Republic, not their step-down Factory brand. BR’s sale section has gotten a few surprisingly good new additions, and that extra 20% off is even working on shoes and 3rd party goods. Often during regular price sales/promos, 3rd party and shoes are excluded. Not the case here. Watch out for anything tagged as final sale. That stuff can’t be returned or exchanged.
The well loved Bushacre 3 for fifty-five smackaroos is solid. To be clear, they’re never at full price. But fifty-five bucks is quite good. And the Tissot Gentelman dropping under $500 is really nice, especially considering the hefty tariffs on Switzerland at post time.
No code needed. Full review of the Woodward briefcase can be found here.
Lots of on-sale, made in the USA goodness at Gustin right now. But with this stuff there’s no waiting for a pre-order campaign to fund & then for the goods to be made. This is all stuff they already have on hand, in stock, and ready to ship. Problem is it appears to be most if not all final sale. No returns or exchanges. And as they’re almost entirely a pre-order model and don’t hang on to much if any stock, this stuff will probably move very fast. Also note that there’s a free shipping code, BYESUMMER, but it only applies to “featured stock“, which is a super limited selection of the event. Many thanks to Daniel for the tip.
It’s the off-price places (Nordstrom Rack, TJ Maxx, etc…) which seem to thrive when a consumer economy goes a bit haywire. It’s where shops and brands send stuff that they just couldn’t move. And sometimes, it’s less about the thing, and more about timing.
The Combo Pick:
= $203 total (normally $290)
Spendy shirts but worth the splurge to many. Ledbury did what so many have tried and failed to do… They made a true dress shirt out of a breathable, wicking, smooth performance fabric, and the collar feels and acts like a real dress shirt collar. That’s where so many performance fabric dress shirts fail miserably… the collars are always too casual. Not with these. The collars are terrific. Great with a tie. Looks exceptionally sharp without a tie too, thanks to their structure and the slightly lowered 2nd button. Don’t want performance fabric? The 30% off $150 works on their cotton shirts too. Do note that these are from their made-to-order line. Much more precise measurement in terms of fit, and you get to pick the collar style. Mid spread dress or hidden button down looks terrific without a tie, if that’s your thing. Also know that these take a few weeks in terms of delivery, as they make them once you input your options.
Select items only, and the key words are “up to”. So lots of stuff isn’t 20% off. But those Goodyear Welted chukkas sure are.
NOTE: This post will be updated through the long weekend.
Smart casual briefcases, classic dive watches, and retro sneakers.
A casual but still put-together look for dressed down winter festivities.
Looking sharp but not over the top. Out on the town or at someone's place.
Tis-the-season to bring some style.
Tues. = Leftovers + extensions moved to the top. 20% off Huckberry's 365 pants, BRF…
Cozy duds, paper pets, some good reads, and a heated outdoor chair.
