Sales that deserve some attention heading into the weekend or a bit earlier. Might not be some massive once a year event, but still worth a look. Those are what make up these handfuls. Five of the better sales, one for each finger, are below, plus bonus sales if need be. Included are a few picks worth pointing out.Â
[GAP: 40% Off Everything NO Exclusions w/ FRIEND](//www.gap.com/)
[GAP](//www.gap.com/)
- [Clean Cotton/Nylon Mac Jacket – $76.80](//www.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=1064351&pcid=11900&vid=1&pid=228392012) ($128)Â
- [Casual Mac Jacket in 100% Cotton Twill – $76.80](//www.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=1084650&pcid=11900&vid=1&pid=228381002) ($128)Â
- [Quilted Bomber Jacket – $47.97](//www.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=1064351&pcid=11900&vid=1&pid=922929002) ($79.95)Â
- [Solid White or Blue Oxford Shirt in Stretch – $29.97](//www.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=1081558&pcid=15043&vid=1&pid=227655012) ($49.95)Â Â
- [Patterned Oxford Shirt in Stretch – $29.97](//www.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=1081558&pcid=15043&vid=1&pid=227666112) ($49.95) Â
- [Cotton/Linen Chinos in Slim Fit – $41.97](//www.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=1104070&pcid=11900&vid=1&pid=228615042) ($69.95)Â
- [Straight Fit Jeans – $35.97](//www.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=1050840&pcid=6998&vid=1&pid=644885002) ($59.95)Â
- [GapFlex Jeans in Slim Fit – $41.97](//www.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=1050839&pcid=6998&vid=1&pid=180217002) ($69.95)Â
- [Basic Leather Belt – $23.97](//www.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=5135&pcid=5300&vid=1&pid=600175012) ($39.95)Â
- [Original Khakis in Straight or Athletic Fit with GapFlex – $35.97](//www.gap.com/browse/search.do?searchText=Original+Khakis) ($59.95)Â
It’s basics time people. No exclusions here, and GAP usually excludes jeans, sometimes khakis, and often leather accessories. (So, if you need a do-anything smart casual belt? [Here you go](//www.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=5135&pcid=5300&vid=1&pid=600175012).) Meanwhile, if you’re a cardholder, you can knock another 10% off w/ PLUS10.
[J. Crew Factory: New Spring Arrivals + Extra 20% off $100+ w/ SPRINGY](
[J. Crew Factory](
- [Thompson Fit Oxford Cloth Suit Jacket]( & [Matching Slim Pant – $126.40]( ($158)
- [Thompson Fit Linen/Cotton Windowpane Jacket]( & [Matching Slim Pant – $316.80]( ($396)
- [Thompson Fit Linen Suit Jacket]( & [Matching Slim Pant – $178.40]( ($223)
- [Sutton Straight-Fit Pant in Oxford Cloth – $39.50](
So even though the exclusions say suiting is out, some of the suits have the “20% off $100+” notification next to them, [and the code is in fact working](. Not all of them, but some of them. Could be a good time to pick up a Thompson fit suit in a summery fabric that you might not wear as much as your wheelhouse wools. But I’d wait on that windowpane. Sorta odd that it doesn’t have any kind of built in discount. Just the 20% off. Three bills is steep for a JCF Thompson summer suit.

High thresholds for H&M (especially for H&M) but if you stick to the “Premium Quality” line, there might be some finds there. And speaking of, those sneakers. You’ll need to grab something else to trip the balance (like an on sale cashmere scarf) but… good lord. The BR Nicklas was an homage to the Killshot, so these are… what… an homage of an homage? How many homages does it take until we get to mirage? Anyway, free shipping also kicks in when you use the code.

Also, there’s the text thing, text FUN to 89532 to get your own personal 50% off code. But you’re opting into their promo texts. Meanwhile, if you’re a cardholder? Try BRCARD50 and BRCARD for half off and then an additional 10% off after that. No BR Merch exclusions here, and it can be a GAP or Old Navy credit card.

When is a Brogue Oxford not a Brogue Oxford? That’d be here. Technically, this ain’t an oxford. It is a brogue, a wingtip specifically, [but it’s a blucher (or derby) and not a true, closed lacing oxford](.
Pedantic shoe jargon aside, they’re nice shoes. Especially considering the 40% – 50% off codes and discounts Banana Republic runs.
[In Review: The Banana Republic Suede "Waller" Wingtip | Dappered.com](//bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=1030875&pcid=13846&vid=1&pid=266941022&tid=braff4025845&ap=2&siteID=brafcid11555231&cvosrc=affiliate.cj.4025845)
Has more brown hues in person. Still very light in shade. Suede can be awfully tough to photograph.
Sleek and low profile without getting overly pointy or too slim, these are perfect warm weather shoes, or, shoes to pair up with jeans for transitional weather. A lot of suede summer shoes (think traditional bucks) can be clunky and stumpy. Y’know, fat and tall. Shaped like [the GMC Safari mini van]( that I learned how to drive in. That’s not the case with the Brogue. They’re more grand-touring coupe. But not obnoxiously angular like a Lamborghini.

Great shape to these. Not a clunky, traditional buck in the least.
The suede is decently thick, flexible, and even has a bit of a noticeable nap to it. The leather has NOT been shaved to within an electron of its existence. The welt is an attractive, graham cracker brown. And if they are glued (I mean, they gotta be glued, right?) the faux welt is well executed. [A bit of texture to the sole]( and heel means you won’t be sliding all around upon first wear.

Suede is pretty good for the price. The nap gives it a nice texture.
Fit seems true. A 10.5D fit my normally 10.5D feet just fine. Maybe a little trim through the overall width, but nothing terrible. These things also come with a branded “Ortholite” insole, which promises cushioning and ventilation. Available in three shades, with the “Sandy Taupe” seen in this post leaning closer to brown than grey in most (but not all) light.

Three colors to pick from. Brown will be the most versatile, taupe will be the most summery.
There was a time when Banana Republic shoes were a disappointment. That hasn’t been the case for a few years now, and here’s another pair that proves BR can, in fact, be a solid place to pick up shoes.
Whether you call them oxfords or not? That’s entirely up to you.

[From Oxfords to Sneakers: The 5 Styles of Shoes Every Guy Needs](r/Dappered/~3/wOzDN0ysE3A/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email)
Posted: 07 Mar 2018 08:00 AM PST
Pick one pair of shoes from the following categories and your footwear needs will be covered for the majority of life’s adventures. These are the essential shoes that every stylish guy needs to manage weddings, job interviews, work, travel, dates, and the like. They’re the foundation on which you can build onwards and upwards from. Each pair of shoes on this list meets the following criteria:
- Covers multiple, common situations
- Affordable options are easy to find
- They lean more traditional (nothing too wacky/super modern)
#1. The Mandatory Black Oxford
[Jack Erwin "Joe" Oxford](//www.jackerwin.com/products/joe-cap-toe-oxford-black-full-grain?utm_source=affiliate&utm_medium=cj&utm_campaign=Dappered-jackerwin.com)
- [Jack Erwin “Joe” Oxford – $195](//www.jackerwin.com/products/joe-cap-toe-oxford-black-full-grain?utm_source=affiliate&utm_medium=cj&utm_campaign=Dappered-jackerwin.com)
- [Massimo Matteo Oxford Cap Toe – $159](//www.zappos.com/marty/p/massimo-matteo-6-eye-bal-cap-toe-brown/product/8296580/color/6?PID=7100520&AID=4048741&utm_source=Skimlinks&splash=none&utm_medium=affiliate&cjevent=a06be297216d11e8816000870a1c0e0b_273703972409917475%3AT1cKpx7qA06b)
- [Allen Edmonds Park Avenue – $425](
There’s no getting around it; we all need a pair of formal black oxfords. Funerals, job interviews, black tie weddings, and other inevitable life events call for this shoe. Your black oxfords might be the least worn shoe in your closet, but you’ll be happy to have them on hand (and on foot) for those important occasions.
#2. The Indispensable Brown Brogue
[Allen Edmonds Strand](
- [Allen Edmonds Strand – $425](
- [Cole Haan Harrison Grand Wingtip – $134.90]( ($220)
- [Charles Tyrwhitt Chocolate Goodyear Welted Oxford Brogue – $199](
- [Allen Edmonds for Brooks Brothers McAllister â $298](//www.brooksbrothers.com/Leather-Wingtips/MH00216,default,pd.html?dwvar_MH00216_Color=CL60&contentpos=29) ($428)
- [J. Crew Goodyear Welted Ludlow Wingtips – $298](
[Wingtip, cap-toe, long-wing, balmoral, or blucher](. Brogues come in a wide variety of styles and levels of formality. Choose one that fits your weekly lifestyle best. Brown brogues can be worn with anything from a suit, to a pair of dark, well fitting denim, from khakis to flannel trousers.
#3. The Obligatory Boots
[Allen Edmonds Higgins Mill](
- [Allen Edmonds Higgins Mill – $395](
- [DSW Aston Grey Chelsea Boot â $109.99](
- [Clarks Men’s Bushacre 2 Chukkas – $65](
- [J. Crew Kenton Plain-Toe Boots â $248](
- [Jack Erwin James Chukka – $220](//www.jackerwin.com/products/james-snuff-suede)
- [Loake 1880 Mitchum Suede Chelsea Boots â $280](
- [Allen Edmonds Dalton Wingtip Boot – $495](
Boots are perfect for those days when the weather is rough, and lesser weaker shoes let the elements nip at your delicate, sensitive [mankles](. Office warriors can add a touch of rebellion to their work outfit by swapping the oxford shoes for a pair of dress boots. Life travelers can treat their ankles to a pair of suede chukkas. Londoners and Australian businessmen can wear black [Chelsea Boots]( everywhere. Yes, everywhere.
#4. The Essential Casual Shoes
[J. Crew Goodyear Welted Ludlow Penny Loafers](
- [J. Crew Goodyear Welted Ludlow Penny Loafers – $288](
- [H&M Premium Quality Suede Bucks – $79.99](
- [Jack Erwin Parker Driving Loafer – $115](//www.jackerwin.com/products/parker-light-gray-suede)
- [Banana Republic Dellbrook Italian Leather Loafer – $88.80](//bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=6852&pcid=5490&vid=1&pid=486555012) (when 40% off)
- [Florsheim Bucktown Plain Ox – $114.95](//www.zappos.com/p/florsheim-bucktown-plain-ox-white-suede/product/8473255/color/734)
These are shoes for days when we don’t want to dress to the nines. We want something informal and comfortable, and we want to look [damn fine]( in our leisure. Now be a dear and hand me my Manhattan.
#5. The Versatile Low Top Sneakers
- [adidas Stan Smith – $75](
- [Banana Republic Nicklas – $76.80](//bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=50062&pcid=5490&vid=1&pid=166850002) (when 40% off)
- [Superga Cotu Classic – $62](
- [Sperry Top-Sider Striper LL CVO – $59.95](
For when you’re at your most casual, yet not at the gym, it’s tough to beat a pair of classic low top kicks. Why low top? High tops are great and all, but they’re pretty tough to wear with shorts in the summer. Low top, canvas, suede, or leather sneakers can be worn year round with a variety of outfits. Get them in white or a neutral shade and they’ll go with everything.
