Here’s a round up of the best of what’s going on for men’s style when it comes to all the after Xmas sales. This post will be updated as more deals roll in.
J. Crew: Extra 50% off or an extra 70% off 3+ FINAL Sale Styles w/ NEWYEAR
- Ludlow Slim-fit suit jacket in Japanese cotton chino +
- Ludlow Slim-fit suit trouser in Japanese cotton chino +
- Premium fine cotton dress shirt with button-down collar =
- $173.69 FINAL SALE for all three ($794)
- Rugged merino wool-blend shawl collar cardigan +
- Straight-fit garment-dyed carpenter pant +
- Vintage-wash cotton pocket T-shirt =
- $96.89 FINAL SALE for all three ($365.50)
Launched on Sunday (12/28.) Everybody following the above logic? Final means final. All that stuff is tagged as such and thus can’t be returned or exchanged. It’s an extra 50% off unless you get three (or more) final sale items. That’s why there are 3 item combinations shown above.
J. Crew Part II: 25% off select full price w/ NEWYEAR
- Italian Suede Barn Jacket – $673.50 ($898)
- Made in Spain Essex Shoe Collection – $337.50 – $356.25 ($450 – $475)
Now onto the normal stuff, which should be able to be returned or exchanged. 25% off isn’t nearly as deep as J. Crew can (sometimes) go on their full-priced styles, yet code NEWYEAR works on a few things that are normally (but not always) excluded. Not bad if you got a gift card and want to stack it up.
Bonobos: New items added to Extra 30% off Sale items w/ FINALBOW
- Jetsetter Knit Blazers – $209.30 ($375) 6 colors/patterns
- Italian Gurkha Trousers – $83.30 ($169)
- Galloway 90% Wool / 8% Cashmere Blazer – $391.30 ($700)
Lots of new items added. An additional 200 styles to be more precise. It’s a mix of regular sale and final sale items, so be careful with anything tagged as the latter. Final means no returns or exchanges (and yes you’ll hear that get repeated often in this post). But picks above shipped and returned for free at post time. So there’s lots of regular sale in there which should do the same (ship/return for free.)
BR: New Items added to sale + additional 20% off (casual picks)
- Merino Blend Sweater Bomber – $159.99 ($250)
- Clark’s Desert Boots in Loden Green Suede – $95.99 ($150)
- Suede Court Sneakers – $95.99 ($150)
- Cotton Merino Waffle Patch Sweater – $83.99 ($120)
- Slub Cotton Double Knit Herringbone T-Shirt – $39.99 ($60)
- Slim Brushed Traveler Chinos – $59.99 ($100)
Banana Republic’s seasonal clearance has now begun in earnest. Plenty of new styles from this past fall/winter’s release(s) have been added to their sale section, and an extra 20% is coming off at checkout, no code needed.
BR Part II: New Items added to sale + additional 20% off (dressed up picks)
- Suit Jacket in Italian Hopsack Wool – $219.99 ($400)
- Trousers in Italian Hopsack Wool – $111.99 ($200)
- Total for suit = $331.98 ($600)
- Italian Wool Tweed Jacket – $299.99 ($450)
- Velvet Tuxedo Jacket – $319.99 ($498)
- Velvet Trousers – $127.99 ($198)
- Total for suit = $447.98 ($696)
Same deal, this time just at the dressed up end of the spectrum. A reminder that if you received (or purchased) a gift card to Gap or Old Navy, those should also work on BR stuff as well. And in regards to that velvet dinner suit, if you’d like to tone it down a bit, try wearing the jacket with a pair of regular black dress trousers/tuxedo pants.
Nike: Winter Sale
- Field General – $63.97 ($105)
- Air Max 2017 – $125.97 ($190)
- Air Jordan 1 Mid SE – $104.97 ($140)
- Dri-FIT 1/2-Zip Running Top with Reflective Accents – $70.97 ($100)
So they expired a code on Saturday night, yet on Sunday the normal sale prices dropped to just about where they landed with the code. That’s super cheesy, Nike. *sighs*… Nice prices though. Still.
Timex: Up to 30% off End of Year Sale
- Titanium The James Brand x Timex Automatic GMT 41mm – $524.99 ($799)
- Waterbury Metropolitan Automatic 41mm – $230.99 ($329)
- Green Dial Waterbury Heritage Chronograph 39mm – $209.99 ($299)
No code needed this time. And while the selection is… minimal (34 watches at post time,) there are a couple of models in there one wouldn’t expect to see.
Target: Up to 50% off select clearance clothing
- Goodfellow Plaid Holiday Shirt – $25.50 ($30)
- All in Motion Jersey Polo Shirts – $13 ($20) select colors
- All in Motion Linear Mesh Raglan T-Shirts – $10.50 ($15)
- All in Motion Heavy Puffer Jacket – $55.25 ($65)
Quick reminder about Target Clearance: Just because a style is on sale doesn’t mean all its colors are on sale. Sometimes it’s only one color that’s getting the price reduction, and then it could be extreme sizes which are the only ones left. Picks above had at least a decent size selection left at checkout. Stock in-store can often be different, if you wanna brave Target during the after-Christmas period.
Billy Reid: New Items Added to up to 50% off Sale & FINAL Sale
- Made in Italy Bond Peacoat in Heather Gray – $448.50 FINAL ($895)
- Made in Peru French Terry John Shawl Cardigan – $148.50 FINAL ($298)
Lots of final sale stuff in there. It’s a mix of regular sale and final sale, so be careful. Anything tagged as such can’t be returned or exchanged.
The Tie Bar: Up to 50% off FINAL Sale items
- Ribbed Sweater Vintage Polos – $40.60 FINAL ($68) 4 colors
- The Modern-Fit Oxford Casual Shirts – $45.50 FINAL ($65) 3 colors
- Merino Cardigans – $44 FINAL ($88) navy or charcoal
No returns or exchanges. Free shipping won’t kick in until $99.
REI: Up to 50% off End of Year Deals
- Vuori Strato Tech Hoodie – $61.93 ($78)
- KUHL Deceptr Pants – $73.93 ($99)
- Vuori Long-Sleeve Strato Tech T-Shirt – $53.93 ($68)
- Darn Tough Sled Head Socks – $16.93 ($25)
- Darn Tough Oh Snap Lightweight Cushion Socks – $16.93 ($25)
Nothing says an REI sale like a rare discount on (novelty!) Darn Tough USA Made merino blend socks. That and Vuori. More so than normal this time, even if it is predictably odder colors and styles.
Spier & Mackay: Up to 25% off select End of Year Sale
- Medium Grey Italian V.B.C. Merino Wool Suit – $493.20 ($548)
- 100% Merino Chunky Shawl Collar Cardigans – $141 ($188)
- Brogue Cap Toes – $156 ($208) reviewed here in brown
- Wine Red Cap Toe Balmorals – $156 ($208)
- Snuff Suede Chukkas – $238.50 ($318)
Discount varies by item (key words are “up to”) and not everything is on sale. Far from it. But some bestsellers are getting some price cuts, and Spier’s quality to cost ratio is pretty great, especially for their suits, sweaters, and blake stitched shoes. If it’s your first Suit/Sport Coat, Shoes, Dress / Casual Trousers, Outerwear, Knitwear, or Dress / Casual Shirt purchase with them, then it ships and returns for free (see returns policy and USA tab here.) Sale runs through January 4th.
Amazon: Up to 40% off Winter Sale
- Citizen 41mm Promaster Automatic Black Dial Diver – $279.95 ($335ish)
- GAP Essential Khakis – $24 ($29.99)
- Dyson V11 Cordless Stick Vacuum – $349.99 ($629.99)
- CARFIA Polarized CA5354L Sunglasses – $28 ($35)
Totally random. Watches, cheap khakis, and the “Final Boss” of cordless vacuums. Also, don’t be overly surprised if some of these (and other sale item) prices expire at speed.
BR Factory: 50% off + an addit. 20% off most
- Poly/Wool Mac Jacket – $112 ($280) 56% poly / 40% wool / 4% other
- Weekender Bomber – $48 ($120) 55% cotton, 45% poly
- (matching) Weekender Cargo – $38 ($95)
- Wool Blend Plaid Sherpa Jacket – $64 ($200) 68% off
- Traveler Jeans – $33.60 ($105) athletic or slim, 3 colors, 68% off
Net is 60% off (100x.5x.8=40.) So, it’s a good sale for them. Maybe not an all-timer as they’ll occasionally do flash sales which go 64% – 70% off, but still quite good. And while we’re here on BR Factory, has anyone had a better 2025 than them? They’re the step-down, more affordable brother-brand to mainline Banana Republic, and BRF’s price/style balance is pretty terrific. Sure they’ve had a few duds here and there, but more often than not they make pretty great looking, good feeling, nicely priced stuff.
Nordstrom: Half-Yearly Sale (Nordstrom house-brand picks)
- 100% Cashmere Sportcoats – $389.35 – $419.25 ($599)
- Wool Rain Mac Jacket – $297.50 ($425)
- Nailhead Textured Wool Sport Coat – $279.29 ($399)
- 100% Cashmere Crewnecks – $115.50 ($165) 9 colors
Picks above are from their Nordstrom house brand, which usually delivers good quality and lower prices than some of the other (3rd party) brands at Nordstrom. I mean, a 100% cashmere blazer for ~$400ish is pretty unheard of. And yes, everything ships and returns for free.
Nordstrom: Half-Yearly Sale (3rd-party brand picks)
- Cole Haan 3-in-1 Water Resistant Rain Coat – $214.80 ($358)
- Ray-Ban 54mm Foldable Wayfarers – $152.80 ($191)
- Ray-Ban Highstreet 57mm – $152.80 ($191)
- Ray-Ban New Wayfarer 55mm – $142.40 ($178)
- Johnston & Murphy Sullivan Cap Toe Oxfords – $149.99 ($199)
- Johnston & Murphy Sullivan Cap Toe Double Monks – $149.99 ($199)
- Barbour Newland Quilt Front Zip Cardigan – $175 ($250)
And now these picks above are selected from some of the 3rd party brands Nordstrom carries. Because at their core they’re a department store, and thus they carry lots of stuff from other brands. As always, everything ships and returns for free.
adidas: get a $100 giftcard for $75
The Pick: Samba OGs – $75 w/ giftcard use ($100)
So if you can buy a $100 giftcard for $75 (limit 2 per gift card purchase transaction) that means anything over $100 is effectively $25 off. If something is in that $75 – $100 range, then it’s $75, and you’ll leave a little gift-card credit on the table. Not a bad way to save some cash on styles that aren’t always on sale. Deal ends New Year’s Eve.
Brooks Brothers: 40% off full price styles
- Italian Wool Hopsack Sport Coat – $418.80 ($698)
- Wool Flannel Plaid Sport Coat – $418.80 ($698)
- “Friday” OCBDs – $64.80 ($108) four colors
- Made in America Leather Briefcase – $418.80 ($698)
As deep as Brooks Brothers goes on their full price styles. Know that free shipping won’t kick in until $200, but as it’s Brooks Brothers, that’s not always the hardest tier to hit. Runs through January 4th, but don’t be surprised if some of the more popular stuff starts getting picked over/running low on stock before then.
Huckberry: Up to 45% off “See you out there” sale
- Relwen Quilted Insulated Tanker Jacket – $254 ($318)
- F&T 365 5-Pocket Pants – $86 ($108)
- select colors only, but lots of colors are on sale in athletic tapered
- Wills Made in Portugal Knit Cotton Blazer – $238 ($398)
- F&T James Waxed Snap Jacket – $128 ($198)
Guessing most of you knew about this one already, as our picks post has been live for a bit now. Stuff is selling quickly on common sizes. If you got a giftcard in your stocking, now’s not a bad time to check in if you had your eye on something that could sell out. A few new picks above. Sale runs through New Year’s Day.
lululemon: End of Year FINAL Sale
- ABC Slim 5 Pockets in Asphalt Grey or Trench (khaki) – $89 FINAL ($138)
- ABC Slim Trousers in Trench (khaki) or Asphalt Grey – $89 FINAL ($138)
If you’re a member you can return this stuff in-store for a gift card. So at least there’s that. But no through the mail returns and no cashback. For the non members, final means no returns or exchanges anywhere, period.
Allen Edmonds: Up to 60% off Winter Sale
- Mid-Calf Merino Cool Dress Socks – $15 ($20)
- Over-the-Calf Merino Cool Dress Socks – $18 ($24)
- Strandmok Cap-toe Oxford with Dainite Rubber Sole – $219.47 ($425)
- Barbour Powell Waterproof Jacket – $319.97 ($495)
- *half-zip-sweater not included/not part of the jacket
- Schott N.Y.C. X AE Café Racer 2.0 – $969 ($1,295)
They’ve positioned it as an “extra 20% off, prices as marked” event, yet overall, prices feel unusually high for a “Sale’s on Sale” event. Especially on their stock of on-sale shoes. Still a few gems in there though.
Charles Tyrwhitt: End of Season Sale + Extra 10% off w/ MORE10
- Navy Check Suit (66% wool, 32% polyester, 2% elastane) – $269.10 ($649)
- Pure Wool Overcoat – $314.10 ($599)
- Ink Blue 52% Wool / 48% Poly Texture Check Lightweight Jacket – $269.10 ($499)
- Dark Chocolate Suede Derby Shoes – $179.10 ($299)
- Grain Leather Sneakers – $98.10 ($169)
Yes, Charles Tyrwhitt is widely known for their dress shirts and constant promos (including snail-mail) marking down their shirts specifically. But plenty really like those shirts, AND Chucky Tyrwhitt makes a heck of a lot more than shirts. It’s during these End of Season Sales where the “heck of a lot more” sees significant price reductions. Suits, sportcoats, shoes, outerwear, sweaters, etc… All done with a nod to contemporary tastes but firmly rooted in a classic & timeless aesthetic.
