Also, we take your privacy rights seriously. Head [here]( to learn more. Editor’s Note: Yes we’re posting this today. Until recent years, we’ve usually sat the “Veterans Day” sales out because the term just sounds odd (much like Memorial Day sales). But after hearing from more than a few Vets, our silence has probably been misplaced. Word is even stores on Military bases have Veterans Day sales, so, while much of the world sees November 11th (and the observance around it) as a solemn occasion, here in the States it’s a bit different. Our policy on keeping quiet on Memorial Day won’t change, but for Vets day, we’ve been given the green light from the segment of the readership who has served. Now then, if you’re a regular civilian (like me!) and want to tip your cap to them? Skip this post, and instead spend some of that style budget on a donation to the [USO]( the [EOD Warrior Foundation](, [Special Ops Warrior Fund](, or another organization dedicated to helping our veterans. [J.

It’s not like you’re applying for a credit card or anything. Exclusions? You bet. Lots of exclusions. But that’s J. Crew for you. [Charles Tyrwhitt:  3 shirts for $111 plus free shipping w/ CT111](//www.ctshirts.com/us/mens-shirts/) (expires 11/11) //www.ctshirts.com/us/mens-shirts/ Not bad. Breaks down to $37 per shirt, but with the kicker of free shipping (since they’re UK based), plenty of Charles Tyrwhitt fans might be eyeing up a restock. Not a bad time [to get a few non-iron twills](//www.ctshirts.com/us/classic-collar-non-iron-twill-shirt----white/FON0409WHT.html?pf=pdp_colour_swatch). Expires today though, Wednesday 11/11.

Gotta hand it to GAP. They’re trying guys. They really are. Code FRIEND is good for 40% off, while FAMILY then takes an additional 20% off that marked down price. Net savings is 52% off. [Brooks Brothers: 50% off one regular price item, sitewide, for 24 hours (expires 11/11)](//www.brooksbrothers.com/) //www.brooksbrothers.com/Regent-Fit-Stretch-Wool-Two-Button-1818-Suit/MK00781,default,pd.html The Pick: [Made in the USA or Italy 1818 Stretch Wool Suits in Regent Fit – $499](//www.brooksbrothers.com/Regent-Fit-Stretch-Wool-Two-Button-1818-Suit/MK00781,default,pd.html) ($998) Uh. This has to be a direct result of the bankruptcy/hard times Brooks Brothers has fallen on? I can’t recall a half off sitewide sale before. It’s just not something Brooks Brothers would do. So if your a fan of their staples like the Made in the USA or Italy 1818 suits, their USA made shirt line, ties, etc… now’s not a bad day to think about a closet refresh. I think it’s limited to one item per purchase? So… multiple items would require multiple purchases. Maybe.

A Veterans Day sale that is an actual tip of the cap to Veterans? Nice work Huckberry. Just [a few usual exclusions]( (the stuff that’s never up for promo codes, not that they run many at all). But other than that, Active Duty, Retirees, Veterans, Miltary Spouses and Family Members get 20% off once verified by ID.me.

And MAN they are spendy… [even on sale](. But again, this is the official vacuum of “inch by inch, life’s a cinch, yard by yard, life is hard.” Quick cleanups with an easy to wield, powerful vacuum.

Big fan of the Daltons myself. Shown above is the Alpine Arctic Grip cap toe (a pair of 2nds quality, but the Alpine all the same). [Full review over here on that model](. [Club Monaco: Extra 40% off sale styles w/ EARLYACCESS20]( [Club Monaco menswear]( - [Grant Unlined Blazer – $71.99]( ($329) - [Twill Panel Trouser – $83.40]( ($159.50) - [Refined Stripe Polo Sweater – $28.80]( ($139.50) Confusing code, right? It is an extra 40% off (tested it at checkout) and not an extra 20% off. Maybe it’s “early access” to their 2020 Black Friday/Cyber Monday deal? Beats me. [BONUS East Dane: Their Holiday Sale is On]( [Men's coats]( - [Billy Reid Bond Peacoat – $486.50]( ($695) - [The North Face 1995 Retro Denali Fleece Jacket – $139.30]( ($199) ***Bond Peacoat Sale KLAXON*** Just Large and XL left at post time, but… the real deal!

A heads up on those Danners. They’re not super sleek. A true hiking boot, but they are waterproof and they’ve got some retro good looks blended with modern materials. [BONUS III Bespoke Post: Their Holiday Gift Shop is Open]( ["Flame" Personal Indoor Mini Fireplace]( The pick: [“Flame” Personal Indoor Mini Fireplace – $45]( The folks at Bespoke Post really do a nice job in not just curating stuff for their monthly $45 box of awesome, but for their shop as well. And their holiday gift shop is now open for your browsing needs. Those mini indoor fireplaces are all the rage this year. And $45 is a LOT less than what some other places seem to charge. Probably limited stock though. And please don’t burn your place down. Please? Pretty please? Terrific. [Fire extinguishers](, guys. They’re a must!

[Spier & Mackay Chunky Shawl Cardigan – $188]( About the Author: Jason P. spends his days working in the creative marketing department of a big telecom company. He also does a bit of real estate investing on the side. He believes in curating a timeless, classic wardrobe with subtle modern touches for today. He and his wife love hiking with their dog and shopping at local small businesses and antique stores when they travel. Jason is a practitioner of muay thai and traditional boxing, and his favorite drink is a hoppy New England IPA. With all of us spending more time at home week-after-week, for both viral and climate reasons, the timeless house sweater (thicker, cardigan, often a shawl collar) is becoming an ever-more-used piece of your wardrobe. Just look at [the WIWTWFH series that ran earlier this year](. Lots of house sweaters. Lots. A proper house sweater should offer cozy-comfort, durable and long-lasting quality fabric, and a timeless look. These are not sweaters you swap out each season for a new one. Buy right, and you should have year-after-year style and comfort. The Spier & Mackay chunky shawl cardigan sweater certainly looks the part – it’s an absolute stunner. But, at a HEALTHY $188 price point, is it worth it? colors, but these have sold so well that sizes are getting scattered. The name doesn’t lie: this bad boy is made of thick, butter-soft Australian merino wool. The super-soft merino wool drapes naturally over the the shoulder and creates a strong, masculine silhouette… so you get comfort but not bulbous and billowing. Despite how comfortable the fabric is, it doesn’t sacrifice in durability. No snags, loose threads, or gaping holes in the knit are present. The knit is tight, yet breathable and fluid. This sweater is, frankly, a masterclass in knit craftsmanship. Size medium on 5’7″/175 One common characteristic among superior house sweaters is a visually captivating knitted pattern. Cable knit is the most common, but a discerning mix of textures and patterns really pops and adds a unique visual element if done correctly. Spier & Mackay opts for a classic vertical rib knit, but the raglan sleeve creates an excellent confluence of knit at the shoulder and chest. The sleeve attachment itself is an interesting knit that adds depth. The eye is drawn to that shoulder, and a raglan sleeve naturally shows off the natural musculature of shoulders. Nicely done. Slick details and tight construction. Very nice texture and durability. Attention to detail is consistent in the buttons and pockets. Often, this is where sloppy construction comes to pass, with loose threads, wonky buttons, and stitching out of alignment. Not here. Buttons have a substantial feel, and are tightly sewn into the sweater. Their marbling adds a welcomed pop to the sweater and look excellent. Patch pockets are placed perfectly along the bottom stitch of the sweater, and blend in well with the rest of the rib knitting. Patch pockets. Chunky knit. Six colors are offered for this sweater, [and this camel-dyed number is a beauty](. In reality, it’s a bit less saturated in-person than it is on Spier’s website, but it’s still excellent. Perfect for all those seasonal fall tones we’re wearing, and the lighter-than-expected color will provide some welcomed cheer when the drab winter days begin to roll. However, there’s just no wrong choice in which color you land on- S&M nailed the color selection on this sweater, even if this camel option isn’t dead square exact to what you see on their site in terms of shade. Double shawl collar and raglan sleeves Spier & Mackay has nailed the classic house sweater in superior fashion. Effortless, timeless style in a top-notch fabric and build quality. Superlatives are often overused (and I’ve doled out my fair share in this post), but I do not hesitate to say this is the most comfortable sweater I’ve personally worn. The size medium in the photos fits me to perfection, and has no hot spots, pulling, or excess fabric. House sweaters are meant to wear large and comfy, but still look elegant. And this one does it all. It’s the ideal sweater for working, schooling, parenting, and living at home for the cold weather ahead. Yes, it’s expensive for sure, but “worth” is a relative term. Buy this, and it will last for years to come. You truly will not want to take it off all fall and winter long. Again, it’s not cheap… but Spier & Mackay has made the sweater of the season. ff/Dappered?a=CoWTzaDZ6TM:6VRQsN2eJgs:yIl2AUoC8zA ff/Dappered?a=CoWTzaDZ6TM:6VRQsN2eJgs:qj6IDK7rITs ff/Dappered?a=CoWTzaDZ6TM:6VRQsN2eJgs:gIN9vFwOqvQ [Most Wanted Affordable Style – November 2020](r/Dappered/~3/xmT-bMRq-F4/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email) Posted: 10 Nov 2020 08:00 AM PST Heads up: Buying via our links may result in us getting a commission.

A nice decanter, two nicely weighted double old fashioned glasses, and a reclaimed wood tray to class the whole thing up. One of my pals has this box. I’m always impressed when I see it. [Moose Strap Co. “James” Premium Slim NATO Strap – $20]( [Moose Strap Co. "James" Premium Slim NATO Strap]( Look a bit familiar? [It should](. Only this one runs $20.
