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.

Brooks Brothers: Extra 25% off sale items (spendy picks)

• Italian Wool Linen “The Cloud” Jacket in Navy-Brown Plaid – $314.99 ($698) 
• Classic Fit Italian Cotton-Linen-Wool Hopsack Sport Coat – $314.99 ($698)
• Made in Italy Slim Fit Wool Check 1818 Suit – $674.24 ($1498) 

Sale’s on sale at Brooks Brothers. A note about that “cloud” jacket. It’s intentionally a hyper-lightweight, almost see through summer sportcoat. And that can be difficult (read: expensive) to make. Extra 25% off is set to run though Monday (8/3).

Brooks Brothers: Extra 25% off sale items (not as spendy picks)

• Cotton Blend Terry Cloth Stripe Sweatshirt – $44.99 ($128)
• Friday Shirt, Short-Sleeve Oxford Stripe – $37.49 ($108)
• Performance Series Polo Button-Down Collar Sport Shirts – $52.49 ($148)

And some items outside of the suits/sportcoats which got the first position mention.

Nike: Extra 25% off select w/ DAYONE (ends 8/2) 

• Field General – $62.22 ($105)
• Air Force 1 – $86.25 ($115) 

Includes more than just shoes. RE the Field Generals: The waffle sole is eye catching and comfortable, the styling is versatile, and the neutral “Light Orewood Brown/Black” colorway shown above goes with everything. They are, at least to your friendly neighborhood affordable men’s style blog editor, noticeably more comfortable than their bestselling hard-court “Killshot 2” sneaker line (which are also up for the 25% off DAYONE code).

J. Crew: 50% off Tech Pants in Slim or Straight Fit – $62.50 ($128)

Not final sale either. Usually once something gets to half-off or more at J. Crew, they slap a final sale tag on it and then you can’t return or exchange it. That’s not the case with these. Size shown is a 32×30 straight fit on 5’10″/180. J. Crew’s tech pants aren’t fully synthetic. So if you’re someone who likes the feel of traditional cotton fabrics, but also wants some performance blended in, these are worth a shot. 51% elastomultiester/41% cotton/8% elastane. Five classic colors to pick from.

Spier: Up to 20% off select summer sale event

• Unlined Suede Chukkas – $193.80 ($228) review here
• Chocolate Calf Suede Driving Shoes – $158.40 ($198)
• Balmoral Cap Toes – $168.30 ($198) 

Selection is pretty limited, but… shoes! Haven’t seen them put some of their newer shoes and boots on sale in a while. Good sizes on the above picks at post time, but as Spier is a smaller operation, stock may (or may not) sell fast.

BONUS  Nordstrom: Anniversary Sale is still going

• Nordstrom Trim Fit Light Blue Slub Linen & Wool Sport Coat – $266.99 ($399)
• Nordstrom Trim Fit Stretch Wool Suit Jackets & Matching Trousers = $332.98 ($498)
• Vince Fulton Sneakers – $128.99 ($198)
• Cole Haan Cap Toe Derby – $149.99 ($230)

Still running and runs through Sunday 8/9. A few newer picks shown above. And a reminder (say it with me)… everything ships and returns for free. Full picks here if you’d like them.

Also worth a mention:

• Banana Republic: 30% off most full price + Sale items (picks here)
• BR Factory: 60% off almost everything
• J. Crew: Up to 30% off select wear now styles
