We’re about 117 days in Amazon’s semi-annual sale, and we’ve ID’d lots of top-notch menswear from Bezos’ Big Site of Stuff. But listen: the best non-Amazon menswear deals remain equally plentiful. Consider it the rare byproduct of capitalism: when the competition for deep discounts goes into high gear, we all win.
We’ve scouted big sales from heavy hitters like SSENSE, Todd Snyder, Gap, Adidas, Nordstrom and more. Some of them are hitting 50, 60, even 70 percent off in-season clothes, which is wild. We’re only technically three weeks into summer, and you could overhaul your hot-weather wardrobe for half price.
Below are the best hits from the best non-Amazon menswear sales we’ve seen, but you can click through to the full sale sections to do some scrolling for yourself.
Technically it’s the fit that’s “relaxed,” but the incognito elastic at the back of the waistband on these shorts means you’ll feel equally at ease. (Right now, Banana Republic’s sale is taking an extra 20% off everything at checkout.)
American Trench
The Sol Crew Sock
One of the best pairs of vintage-inspired socks you can find also happens to be American-made—and, briefly, under $20. (Shop the American Trench sale, up to 50% off.)
Inis Meáin
Slim-Fit Cable-Knit Linen, Cashmere, Silk and Cotton-Blend Sweater
The fabric blend on this ideal summer sweater from one of the world’s pre-eminent purveyors of knitwear is a greatest hits album of things you want against your skin. (Shop the Mr. Porter sale, with up to 70% off items.)
Brown sneakers aren’t the new white sneakers, but they’re almost as versatile and will bring some welcome variety to your rotation. I can’t stop wearing mine. (Shop Nordstrom’s summer sale, with menswear up to 70% off.)
Few brands are doing Big Shorts better than Gap right now. So when one of the best pairs in its catalog clocks in under $30, we ring the alarms. (Shop Gap’s entire 40% off sale.)
Levi’s
568 Loose Linen+ Denim Jeans
Levi’s deployed its most summer-friendly fabric on the chronically underrated 568—a loose, straight cut. And that pair of jeans is inexplicably $27. (Shop Levi’s entire sale.)
Batoner
The Sea Island Cotton Polo
If you’ve never experienced the softness of Sea Island Cotton, this timeless Japanese-made polo is the perfect opportunity to correct that oversight. (Shop the Haven sale, with up to 50% off items.)
A blazer is sometimes just a blazer, but other times it’s from Japanese technical brand Nanamica and made from a lightweigh, quick-drying cotton-poly wonder fabric. (Shop SSENSE’s summer sale, with up to 70% off.)
Walden Eyewear
Woods Sunglasses
Todd Snyder
Relaxed Fit Denim Camp Collar Overshirt
You don’t see a denim shirt with a camp collar often, but when it’s done well—like this one from Todd Snyder is—it’s the type of hybrid that can unlock an entire wardrobe.
You might buy this for the office, but don’t be surprised when you’re wearing it open over a T-shirt and jeans—or bare-chested and barely buttoned with some shorts—on the weekends. (Alex Mill has 40-70% off more menswear here.)
Gap
Linen-Cotton ’90s Loose Pleated Khakis
Pants like these dress up nicely. But when you treat them like jeans by wearing them with a white tee and white sneakers, they somehow hit even harder. (Shop Gap’s entire 40% off sale.)
Birkenstock
Arizona Soft Slide Sandals
Percival
Tailored Seersucker Blazer
Barebones
Neelum 40L Giant Tote Bag
An absurdly good price for a bag that looks like it could survive a zombie apocalypse and/or heirloom tomato season at the local farmer’s market. (Shop Huckberry’s summer sale for discount on hundreds of pieces of menswear.)
Abercrombie
Tipped Zip Sweater Polo
Zippers are starting to show up more and more on polos. We’ve been a bit skeptical—but when it works, it works. (Shop Abercrombie’s entire sale, with up to 50% off.)
Madewell
The 1991 Straight Leg Jean
Converse
Chuck Taylor All Star ’70s Low Top Sneaker
Ordinary Fits
1st Type Denim Jacket
Think of this like your favorite white Oxford cloth button down, but built for the dog days of summer. (Shop Corridor’s entire sale, with up to 40% off.)
Engineered Garments
Fatigue Pant
These have just enough linen in them to wear all summer, but still look hardy enough to keep in your rotation through apple picking season.
