Top 10 Gents’ Sale Finds: For a Casual Day

A lightweight layer like this cotton track jacket from J.Crew is great for cooler summer days and evenings. The neutral colors (we’re featuring the heather grey, but navy is on sale, too) will work with all your shorts, jeans, and nicer sweats. It has pockets for all your essential loot and looks great over anything from a t-shirt to button up shirt. Note: This is final sale, but it won't disappoint.

When we find a perfectly broken-in looking pair of jeans on sale, we say, “go for it”. AG Jeans uses a touch of Lyocell in the denim to give them a super soft feel. These are AG’s Graduate model, which is an easier fit with a straight leg. It is an ideal style if you want a modern look but not a skinny fit.

Sale time is an opportunity to move up in quality without moving up in price. That is why we like this contemporary fitting t-shirt from Robert Barakett. The 100% long staple pima cotton used in this shirt is so soft and comfortable. It will shrink less and last longer than t-shirts made of lesser quality cotton. And the higher v-neck is stylish, yet sophisticated for a t-shirt. It’s hard to see in this picture, but zoom in through the ‘shop it’ button to see the detail of a very fine line in the fabric that gives it a great heathered and relaxed look. We’re featuring the neutral grey, but it comes in a blue, too.

Another denim option, this one is from Tommy Bahama, which means you’ll get a relaxed fit and equally relaxed look. These super comfortable jeans are made from a cotton and Tencel fabric that is lightweight and perfect for the Summer. The indigo wash is darker, but is hand sanded to give these jeans the perfect fading and whiskering for an up-to-date look.

This modern fitting short from John Varvatos Star USA will update your shorts game with it's somewhat narrower leg and length that hits just above the knee. On sale, it's a great way to incorporate this slimmer (but not skinny!) silhouette into your existing shorts rotation. The smoke grey color is a key color this season and will add the right touch to all your basic t-shirts and polos. It look especially great with a casual white button up shirt with the sleeves rolled up. The lightweight washed cotton has a nice broken-in look and feel.

An off-white pair of jeans is just what a gent needs for a backyard party, a casual restaurant or a weekend of running errands. This pair from Joe's Jeans has a stonewashed finish to give them that soft and worn-in look - they're not that brand new crisp white. The color goes with all the button up's and t-shirts in your closet. And you can wear them with any shoe from flip flops or sneakers, to lace up oxfords. The Brixton fit is modern with a slightly lower rise and a straight leg that is just narrow enough to look updated, without being skinny.

If you’ve been holding out on the whole athleisure trend (or your obsessed and looking for more upscale sweats to add to your arsenal), this sale find from 7 For All Mankind is a great place to dive in. The contemporary fit gives them the right polished feel, so the super comfy cotton blend and and elasticized cuffs won’t look sloppy. The side entry pockets and two back welt pockets give them a more structured look, like pants, so you can wear them with more than your basic t-shirt. Add a button-up shirt and head out for a casual day with confidence.

Plaid shorts? A summer staple. Tommy Bahama’s pair has a relaxed fit, but with a narrower leg and Bermuda length to give them a more modern look, great for a gent looking for a little update. The 100% linen fabric adds to the crisp Summer look in soft pastels that go with white, blue, mint and orange t-shirts and polos. These are a great pair of shorts for the golf course or a backyard party.

A sneaker remains a key item for any gent's weekend wardrobe. These stone color mesh sneakers from SWIMS combine both style and function, all with a great price. The mesh upper is trimmed with a translucent rubber trim that is just really cool looking, for both shorts and jeans. And they are also ultra breathable, quick dry and very comfortable.
