Nordstrom Top 10 Sale List: Handpicked for the Gents

This shaker stitch wool and alpaca blend pullover sweater from Billy Reid is one of our favorites of the season and now it’s on sale. It has a chunky look, yet is soft and light enough to still be comfortable indoors. The marled black and natural yarns give it a sophisticated look that we like best with dark pants or jeans for a night out. It adds masculine style to dressy grey trousers, and looks equally great with your favorite broken-in jeans, too. The fit is modern but not skinny. Size up if you prefer an easy fit.

Tommy Bahama is known for their casual styles and relaxed fit, and this fleece doesn’t disappoint (on sale, it absolutely delights). Being that it’s fleece, it’s super comfortable. The zip and button closure and nylon trim give it a bit of sophistication though, that allows you to wear it running errands AND out to a casual dinner. Just replace you t-shirt and broken-in jeans with a casual plaid button down and dark wash jeans, and off you go.

7 For All Mankind’s dark grey twill jeans are super soft and an ideal alternative to your basic dark wash jeans. These are made in their Slimmy model that has a lower rise and narrower leg, and still plenty of room in the seat and thigh for most gents. This contemporary fit gives them an updated, sleek appearance that works in any non-conservative work environment, as well as a fun night out. Pair them with sweaters, sport coats and button up shirts.

Quilted down vests are not only practical, but an important fashion trend that never goes away. Sale is certainly a good time to add one (or add another one) to your wardrobe, and this is one of our favorites. K-Way is a French company founded in 1965 that is all about innovative outerwear, and that is apparent in this vest that reverses from the blue shown to a flat charcoal color (click through the ‘shop it’ button to see an alternative image). It’s filled with a 90% goose down feather mix to keep you warm when you wear it over sweaters, flannel shirts and fleece tops. The fit is modern and good for most gents.

Hugo Boss’ black zip front cardigan is a practical piece that will serve so many uses in your wardrobe, we were delighted to find it now on sale. The clean lines and ultrafine virgin wool give it a polished finish that works for the office, nights out, and even casual weekend days – just change it up with dress wool pants, dark jeans, or khakis. It looks great over a button up shirt or a long sleeve t-shirt with a trimmer silhouette that keeps it from looking sloppy. If you prefer an easy fit, you can size up and still have that sleek look.

Gents, we can never have enough shirts for the office, right? Grabbing this David Donahue on sale is simply a good business decision. The classic fit and 100% cotton fabric makes it comfortable for a long day at work, and will still look crisp as you head out to dinner. The navy and red graph check looks great with solid or stripe grey or navy suits, as well as navy blazers. The pattern is just bold enough for you to also wear this shirt casually, on its own or under a sweater, with khakis or jeans.

The softly constructed silhouette of this modern fitting sport coat from JKT New York gives you a lot of bang for your sale buck. The updated, narrower lapels and 2-button stance, combined with the brown, blue and taupe check make it a perfect way to add a little rugged appeal to your jeans or khakis – for the office or the weekend. It looks great over a denim button up, and a solid navy or brown knit tie adds a polished finish when you want to dress it up.

A dress topcoat is an investment, so this sale price will help you make you feel great about it. But it’s not just the price that makes it a worthy purchase. Hugo Boss uses a contemporary fit and clean lines to give this charcoal grey topcoat a beautifully modern look. The 39” length hits just above the knee and looks sleek over any grey or navy suits and sport coats.

Whether it’s time to replace your “go-to” black dress shoes or not, on sale, these Allen Edmonds are worth adding to your shoe wardrobe. They’re a classic that will never go out of style, working with your navy, grey and black suits for all your formal business meetings and events. It is a classic shoe that will always be in style. We’ve always been big fans of Allen Edmunds fit and quality- these are shoes you will comfortably wear for many years.
