J. Crew Sample Sale Redux

Monday through Friday, Clothingline is hosting another J. Crew sample sale. In January — along with an unremitting line on opening day — we found an okay selection of $25 shirts (medium only), $35 dress shirts, $60 cashmere sweaters (medium only), $35 cotton and wool sweaters (medium only), $20 shorts, and $25 chinos and cords.

Paul Stuart Warehouse Sale

— Fri, 10th April 2009 —

We knew something was up when Paul Stuart decided not to host its own warehouse sale this year. Well, Monday through Thursday, it looks like they’re letting the Soiffer Haskin showroom do the honors.

Note: For whatever reason, we’ve recently had several inquiries regarding reasonably-priced classic quality footwear. Along with suits, jackets, sportswear, and furnishings, expect a nice selection of very respectable shoes.

Paul Stuart sale – Soiffer Haskin – 317 W 33rd between 8th & 9th – Mon-Wed 9am-6:30pm, Thurs 9am-5pm – Map

The Buck Stops Here

— Thu, 9th April 2009 —

Men.style just posted a rundown of its favorite bucks for the season. We like the idea, but not the selection. Instead, we’d go with THESE hand-crafted Rachel Comey “Trigger Derby’s” presently down from $300 to $200 at our favorite L.E.S. boutique Gargyle. (Note: Sizes are limited in store, so your best bet is online.)

Gargyle – 16A Orchard St between Canal & Hester – 917-470-9367 – Map
