Crew Shoe Sale, a $1000 tux for $280, & More – The Thurs. Men’s Sales Handful](r/Dappered/~3/3lHztRcOANI/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email) Posted: 02 May 2019 03:00 AM PDT Heads up: Buying via our links may result in us getting a commission. [Here’s why.]( 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. [J. Crew: 40% – 50% off Select Shoes w/ STEPITUP]() [J. Crew Shoes]() - [Oar Stripe Cap Toe Oxfords – $178.80]( ($298) - [New Balance for J.Crew 791 Leather Sneakers – $51]( ($85)  - [Unisex 1990 MacAlister Boot in Suede – $88.80]( ($148) - [Vans for J.Crew Canvas Authentic Sneakers – $36]( ($60) One of the better, more tempting codes/promos from J. Crew in recent memory. Those cap toe oxfords made our [best under $200 dress shoes list this year](. They’re surprisingly nice (simple, but nice) in person, considering you nab them at a discount. And now you can. In person shot above is the pair in “maple.” [Bonobos: New Additions to Sale + Extra 30% off w/ SURPRISE]( [Bonobos] - [Jetsetter Stretch Wool Blazer in Francisco Dark Navy Plaid – $252]( ($450) - [Capstone Italian Wool Tuxedo Jacket]( & [Matching Pant – $280]( FINAL ($1000) - [Captstone Italian Blazer in Acapulco Green Stripe – $280]( ($500) - [Stretch Wool Dress Pants in Blue Plaid Check – $110.60]( ($198) Still much of the same stock, but worth a quick jaunt through if you’re a big Bonobos fan. Some of its final sale, some of it is not. Meanwhile, love the name of that Capstone sportcoat. “Acapulco Green Stripe.” Sounds a cocktail they’d serve at the Catalina Wine Mixer. [Massdrop is now called DROP]( [DROP]( - [Wolf Windsor Watch Winder – $115]( FINAL ($225) - [Knockaround Sunglasses – $15]( FINAL ($25) - [Shoe Shine Kit – $55]( FINAL ($80) Just a heads up here. Massdrop is no longer Massdrop. Massdrop is now DROP. Yes, [Drop](. So, we’ll refer to them as such moving forward. At the very least, it eliminates the potentially embarrassing typographical error, and thus could mention a sale in the handful by noted website “assdrop“. Which I’m assuming is something totally different, and probably doesn’t do group-purchase discounts. But I ain’t googlin’ that. On an unrelated note, Brandon D. has emailed in and said that the shoe-valet pictured above actually is quite nice. So, many thanks to him for that. [Charles Tyrwhitt: $100 off $350+, $50 off $250+, $25 off $150 w/ FRIENDSHP]( [Charles Tyrwhitt]( - [Slim Fit Navy Wool Perfect Blazer – $249]( ($299) - [Slim Fit Light Blue Italian Wool Blazer – $299]( ($399) - [Made in England Cap Toes – $204]( ($349) - [Made in England Wingtips in Tan]( or [Black – $204](C2%A0/SHL0202BLK.html?cgid=shoes-made-in-england-shoes) ($349) This code is super sneaky. The code is not FRIENDSHIP. There’s no second “i”. It is, in fact FRIENDSHP. Bizarre. Anyway, Charles Tyrwhitt makes a lot more than just shirts. And much of it is very, very nice. That light blue, Italian wool sportcoat? Totally unlined in the back. Yes please. [Macy’s: 25% off Select Watches w/ FRIEND]( ([including Hamilton]( [Hamilton]( The (spendy) pick: [Intramatic Chronograph – $1646]( ($2195) currently unavailable? For those who prefer to keep their purchases to authorized dealers, instead of the gray market that doesn’t provide factory warranties. Also, Macy’s has (or had?) the brand new Intramatic Chronograph up for that sale. But it might be sold out now? It was getting the 25% off cut for a while there. Featured in this year’s [big Spring Temptation round up](. Big thanks to Aaron K. for the tip! [BONUS Banana Republic: Extra 40% off Sale Styles](//bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/category.do?cid=1014757&mlink=17075603,Promo_Ticker_MCTA&clink=17075603) [ Banana Republic](//bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/category.do?cid=1014757&mlink=17075603,Promo_Ticker_MCTA&clink=17075603) - [Luxury-Touch Piped Polo – $25.79](//bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=424855022&cid=1125294&pcid=1014757) ($49.50) - [Luxury-Touch Printed Polo – $25.79](//bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=424864002&cid=1125294&pcid=1014757) ($49.50) - [Sky Blue Tattersall Slim-Fit](//bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=427605012&cid=1125294&pcid=1014757) or [Standard Fit Luxe Poplin Shirt – $37.19](//bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=427603002&cid=1125294&pcid=1014757) ($69.50) - [Slim-Fit Chambray Shirt – $42.59](//bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=422952002&cid=1125294&pcid=1014757) ($79.50) - [Supima Cotton Button-Shoulder Sweater – $52.79](//bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=425941002&cid=1125294&pcid=1014757) ($98.50) - [Organic Cotton Sweater Blazer – $77.99](//bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=425939002&cid=1014857&pcid=1014757) ($149) - [Arley Suede Work Boot in Sand – $77.99](//bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=424338002&cid=1014863&pcid=1014757) ($179.99) - [Troubadour Slim Briefcase – $222.49](//bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=304289012&cid=1014863&pcid=1014757) ($495) - [Herringbone Dot Silk Tie – $23.99](//bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=389086022&cid=1014863&pcid=1014757) ($59.50) - [Kenley Suede Crepe-Sole Chelsea Boot – $95.99](//bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=424339002&cid=1014862&pcid=1014757) ($178) Not as good as last week when it was an extra HALF off sale styles, but, still worth a mention for those who like to double up on discounts. I know, [lots of BR lately](. Sorry about that. Also worth a mention: - [Costco](-3-pack.product.100460846.html): I still believe this is going on? If you have a Costco membership, [they’ve got Ex-Officio boxer briefs, $30 / 3 online](, and some stores have them for as low as $19.99 / 3 pack. Huge thanks to M. Shah for the tip. Perineum serenity now! CANT GET THAT AT ASSDROP NOW CAN YA??? - [LL Bean]( 25% off w/ SAVE25 (offer expires today, 5/2) - [Suitsupply]( Their [Black Tie Package is back, in time for wedding season](.

[Here’s why.]( Welcome to “[What I Wear to Work](.” A series on, you guessed it, who wears what to work. Would you like to be featured? See the bottom of this post for instructions. Chris Ferris is the Vice President of Digital Marketing at [Pierpont Communications](, the largest PR and Marketing firm in Houston, TX. Even though the standard dress code for most who work in digital seems to be jeans and untucked shirts, Chris tries to wear a jacket or suit and tie to work. Why? Because he likes it, and it also differentiates him from the competition. Doesn’t mean his look has to be straight laced and stuffy though. See below for proof. [What I Wear to Work: Chris, Digital Marketing Executive | Dappered.com] The Suit: [Lands’ End Tailored Fit Stretch Chino Suit](//www.landsend.com/products/mens-tailored-fit-stretch-chino-suit-jacket/id_321199) and [Pants – $149.37](//www.landsend.com/products/mens-tailored-fit-stretch-chino-trousers/id_321201_59?sku_0=::LHC&dysku=4878904) when 40% off. Just got this suit (thanks for the tip, Dappered!) and I love it. It fits beautifully and I only had to have the sleeves and pants shortened. It’s really an ideal suit to wear in the spring and summer. And it stays so hot it Houston in the fall that I can get a good 6 months of wear out of this suit. The Tie: [The Tie Bar Navy Ad Stripe Tie – $19](//www.thetiebar.com/product/32069sk). Because I wear a tie every day, I have a lot of ties. I shop almost exclusively at The Tie Bar because they have fantastic variety and great prices. And the ties look sharp. The Tie Bar: [The Tie Bar Platinum Silver Shot Tie Bar 1 inch – $15](//www.thetiebar.com/product/C460). Wearing a tie? Use a tie bar. Sets my look apart even a little more without being too over the top. I have this bar in matte navy as well. The Shirt: [Nordstrom Trim Fit Microgrid Dress Shirt – $59.90]( ($89.50). Elegant, simple white dress shirt with a very subtle pattern that makes it a little more interesting than a plain white dress shirt. The Watch: [Certus Classic Silver Dial Date Watch – $71.25](. I don’t see my exact watch online anymore (the one linked to here ships in… 1-3 MONTHS?) but there are similar makes on Amazon. Not too pricey, but looks timeless and goes with just about any work outfit. The Belt: [Trafalgar Men’s Leather Dress Belt – $68](. Simple burgundy belt that, like the watch, can really be worn with anything I might wear to work. The Shoes: [Cole Haan Jefferson Wholecut Leather Oxfords – $129.99]( ($300). Just got these and they look fantastic (although I’m still breaking them in). The Underwear: [UNIQLO Airism Collection – Prices Vary](. I only wear AIRism. Houston can get pretty hot and muggy and this underwear does the job. The Socks: [Banana Republic – $14.50](//bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/category.do?cid=1074150&mlink=5001,,flyout_men_shoes_accessories_accessories&clink=15682852). I usually wear Banana Republic socks but they don’t seem to make tan or caramel colored socks any longer. Match those socks to your trousers, no? A huge thank you to Chris for sending in his what he wears to work, and YES, you bet he got the Pierpont logo in his outfit pic not once but twice. The man is a pro. [Head over to LinkedIn]( to discuss this with your coworkers or follow Dappered if you want to see these in your feed. If you want to take this for a spin, send an email to joe@dappered.com with who you are, what you do, and what you’d like to submit.

[Here’s why.]( [What’s Dappered Threads?]( It’s our forum. Launched in 2011, Threads is a not too big, not too small, just-right-sized forum that doesn’t put up with snobbery. All thanks to the users and hardworking mods. Once a month, one of the users/mods from Threads provides us with a highlight package of the last few weeks. [What shoes are you wearing today?]( [What shoes are you wearing today? | Threads.dappered.com]( Shoes shoes everywhere and not a pair to wear. That is a saying isn’t it? Well if it is, that saying certainly doesn’t apply to the Dappered forum members. Since the launch of the thread in January, 2019 by [Shade](, the thread continues to be the go-to for forum members to show off their footwear. [mebejoseph]( kicked the month of April off by working from home in a fun pair of grey and black shoes. [cwk]( posted a photo of his shoes, which prompted lots of appreciation from mebejoseph, DocDave, and Nandyn. Not to be outdone, [Dapper_B]( basked in the glow of member appreciation from Nandyn (again!), jays0n, and DocDave (again!). New forum member, [thunder&]( made his first post count with a photo of his custom hi-tops, [Ron]( showed off his P.F. Flyers, and [Banks]( showed users there is indeed life outside of Allen Edmonds with a pair of Alfred Sargent Moore shoes. [Let’s talk mental health!]() [Threads.dappered.com]() Statics from the National Institute for Mental Health state one in five U.S. adults live with a mental illness. DocDave decided to find out how Dappered users feel about their mental health, and what steps forum members are taking to look after themselves. Users shared personal stories and advice on how to keep themselves looking, and feeling, great. [JBarwick](?p=308440&viewfull=1#post308440) advocated staying active, getting lots of sleep, and meditation. [idvsego](?p=308450&viewfull=1#post308450) chimed in, agreeing that getting a good night sleep is important, watching that inner dialogue, and keeping alcohol consumption to a minimum. [armedferret](?p=308438&viewfull=1#post308438), [Ron](?p=308452&viewfull=1#post308452), [LesserBlackDog](?p=308454&viewfull=1#post308454), and [mebejoseph](?p=308473&viewfull=1#post308473) all took time to share what works for them. Kudos to the guys for opening up with their experiences. [Lightweight Pants]( [Threads.dappered.com]( Domino’s challenge? Finding lightweight pants. Fortunately for him, forum members live in diverse climates and were able to provide him with a variety of suggestions. Linen/cotton blends seem to be the go-to for the majority of forum members, although pure cotton pants also received endorsements. What did not receive endorsement? Oxford cloth. The analogy from [shad0w4life]( May as well rub 3,000 grit sandpaper on your skin and call it a day. Ouch! The universal agreement though? Definitely go sockless, regardless of your choice of pants. [What are your lounge-wear essentials?]( rd27 decided to find out what forum members wear when dressing down. Recommendations came in from multiple users, with [Hebrew Barrister]( choosing a pair of pajama bottoms and [hockeysc23]( enjoying his Under Armour storm pants. However by far the most common lounge-wear is the simple athletic short. Multiple forum members reported wearing shorts when the weather called for it, including [LesserBlackDog]( [Deke]( [mark4]( [carlitos]( [JBarwick]( and [Shade](. Perhaps [Domino]( summed it up best when he wrote “I’ll tell you what my loungewear essentials aren’t. Pants. ” [Dappered Weight Loss Club Anyone?]( Showing no signs of slowing down since its inception in October of 2018, forum members continue to stay positive on their drive to eat healthy and stay fit. Key tips to loosing weight and keeping it off, at least for [JBarwick]( and [Ron]( is not bringing salty snacks in to the house. [elpenguinologo]( and [hockeysc23]( advocated not getting on the scale on a regular basis, while [mebejoseph]( and [idvsego]( are kicking things up a notch in the gym. No word yet if anyone has reached their target goal. Looking for some advice, direction, or just to connect with some cool guys? Perhaps you are looking to shed a few pounds before summer kicks in too. If so, then [Head on over to Threads]( and take a spin around. ff/Dappered?a=FG7jigO246s:3HfDpekNWx0:yIl2AUoC8zA ff/Dappered?a=FG7jigO246s:3HfDpekNWx0:qj6IDK7rITs ff/Dappered?a=FG7jigO246s:3HfDpekNWx0:gIN9vFwOqvQ You are subscribed to email updates from [Dappered Style Mail]().
