Autumn Cashmere Sample Sale 231 W 39th St btw 7th & 8th, Suite 1111 – 9am-7pm Daily
In honor of “Cyber Monday,” Mark McNairy is hosting an online sale featuring 50% off select sample items, as well as 30% off F/W ’13 pieces.
Any other legitimate Black Friday deals? Online, Vittorio J is taking 50% off its “exclusives collection” when you enter coupon code “FRIDAY.” The Morgan [pictured] is made entirely of silk from England, and cut, folded and hand-sewn by craftsmen in Naples.
For the most part, Black Friday and Cyber Monday shopping is horseshit. Smart shoppers don’t mess with 20%-to-30% markdowns, or, (kick us where it hurts!) crowds! Far from the ridiculousness, however, Fred Perry’s Brooklyn Surplus Shop will be taking up to 70% off standout pieces from past collections — as well as true samples — through Sunday. Past sales have featured jackets and outerwear for $150-to-$200; knits for $40-to-$120; and the brand’s signature polos for $30-to-$50.
Fred Perry Overstock Sale – 306 Grand St btw Roebling & Havemeyer (Brooklyn) – Fri 10pm-8pm, Sat-Sun 12pm-8pm
The Choosy Beggar launched in ’08 to help guys find better deals on better clothes. That hasn’t changed, but the way you get your information clearly has. That’s why we were so excited when Mobext, the mobile agency within Havas Media, recently offered to remake The Beggar as a simpler, more mobile-friendly service. That’s what you see, today. Not only is the site far easier to access via mobile and faster to load, but the Mobext team — led by the brilliant Johnny Won (!) — added several smart features, including full map integration, one-click calling (when sale hosts actually have numbers to call), and one-click directions, which (yes, with one click) will show you how to get from your current geographical location to a desired sale location. For their tireless work, we solute Johnny and the entire Mobext crew! We also have to thank the team at Complex Media for its help with the redesign! Needless to say, while The Beggar’s mission remains the same, its design will always be a work in progress. We welcome your suggestions, and wish you and yours a very happy holidays!
Cheers,
The Beggar Team
