The Choosy Beggar

It’s time to play everyone’s favorite game. For the next few weeks, downtown atelier Oak will be increasing in-store and online markdowns from 30-to-50%. This week, most everything’s 30% off; next week, 40%; etc. The whole thing culminates in an in-store sample sale, where you can expect to find remaining stock at around 70% off. The trick is getting the best price for whatever products you want — in your size — before they sell out. Let the fun begin!

After 25 years bordering the north eastern corner of Union Square, Rothman’s is moving its flagship store one block north. As such, beginning Friday (1/6), the men’s store is hosting a moving sale featuring up to 70% off tons of stock. Downstairs, expect to find over 1,000 suits and separates from traditional Italian brands like Canali and Corneliani, along with slimmer cuts by Zegna and John Varvatos.
