The Tuesday Steal: Shop The First of Huckberry Black Friday Deals Right Now

Huckberry Black Friday Sales 2024

If there’s one retailer I’d recommend shopping early and often when it comes to the best Black Friday deals, it’s got to be Huckberry. It seems Black Friday menswear sales start earlier and earlier every year, don’t they? Suffice to say, I’m here to help.

And for a company like Huckberry — the Austin-based retailer of rugged menswear classics that make every guy look great — it’s a big deal when some of the very best men’s gear and men’s clothing goes on sale, because it just doesn’t happen every day.

So, we find ourselves here, on this fine Tuesday before Thanksgiving, talking about the first Huckberry sale for Black Friday (and Cyber Monday).

That’s right: There are a series of deals and discounts being offered throughout the week on different waves of gear, whether it’s a cozy Relwen sweater, some stylish Flint and Tinder 365 Pants or absurdly comfortable slippers for laidback holiday lounging. Those discounts right now climb up to 40 percent off, and it should only get better throughout the week.

Everything from outdoor gear — like camping accessories and pocket knives — is also up for grabs, along with a healthy assortment of knitwear, casually cool blazer and even a covetable set of Whiskey Peaks rocks glasses. And the fun is just getting started when it comes to Huckberry Black Friday sales aplenty.

It won’t be the last time you hear from me on the subject, but just know that you can score deals of up to 40% off at Huckberry, with some likely surprises thrown in the mix. Shop to your heart’s content, but leave some energy for the rest of the week: The best menswear deals from your favorite brands are set to keep rolling, my friends.

The Sunday Sale: Shop Early and Often at the Luxe Aether Apparel Black Friday Sale

Aether Apparel Black Friday sale 2024.

For as crowded as it seems the market is with the best Black Friday deals right now, there are still plenty of gems to be found as you scour the landscape for savings and style.

In my view, the sweet spot is when a brand that doesn’t typically go on sale — if at all — drops some serious savings seemingly out of nowhere. And right now on this fine Sunday ahead of a holiday week, the brand in my line of sight is Aether Apparel and its current Black Friday Sale.

The Aether Apparel Black Friday Sale is a sight to behold, with savings of up to 30 percent on some of the best technical outerwear and gear around. The Los Angeles company is perhaps best known for its selection of durable, outdoor-ready jackets, the kind that can seamlessly, stylish and subtly transition from the trail back into town without missing a beat.

The offering right now via the can’t-miss Aether Apparel Black Friday Sale covers a standout range of styles, functionality and materials, from down-fill jackets to lightweight rain shells, wind-ready zip-ups, insulated hoodies and rugged shirt jackets.

You’ll find a series of sleek yet eye-catching snow shells and ski jackets, each seemingly cooler than the last, and the collection covers both men’s and women’s outerwear and gear.

The Aether Apparel Black Friday Sale only runs through December 2nd, but in my view, that’s more than enough time to get ample savings on some of the best men’s outerwear, jackets and gear on the market. Ahead of Black Friday and Cyber Monday, this gem of a deal seems to be calling your name, I’d say.

The Tuesday Steal: These Beckett Simonon Sneakers are On Sale Right Now for Less Than $120

Beckett Simonon men's sneakers review.

A deal like this doesn’t come around very often, or rather, a deal on the best men’s sneakers can be hard to find — if you prize designer quality and premium materials along with looks, that is. Yes indeed, the best men’s sneakers for fall need to check all the boxes, and when the chance rolls along to score a deal on said sneakers — like, say, the Beckett Simonon Morgen Trainers — then it’s one you best not miss.

If you’re not familiar with the way they do things over at Beckett Simonon, now is as excellent a time as any to get acquainted. In addition to the finely crafted sneakers you see here — ones made with supple full-grain leather and a tall instep — they also craft some of the coolest men’s boots you’re apt to find.

They do it all at shockingly low prices using top-notch materials, as I’ve found in past Beckett Simonon reviews. And with the Beckett Simonon Morgen Trainers, it all comes together right now, just in time to shake up your fall boots rotation with some handsome leather sneakers.

You see, you can get these crisply designed, retro-inspired sneakers for just $119 (automatically applied at checkout), and that knocks ’em down to an even more agreeable price — they normally retail for just $169, a downright steal considering the value you’re getting in every step.

And although this deal on the Beckett Simonon Morgen Trainers runs for a limited time, there are plenty of options available in terms of fresh sneakers — that includes this very silhouette in shades of white-on-white, white-and-gum-rubber or a very sleek black-on-black design.

Of course, the rest of the brand’s sneakers are similarly discounted, so there are abundant options available when you feel like trading in your rugged Red Wing boots for trainers alongside expertly faded blue jeans and a midweight flannel shirt. For versatility and style points in spades, you’re going to want a pair of the Beckett Simonon Morgen Trainers while this deal is still around.

The Friday Read: An El Tesoro Tequila Trip & The Best Waxed Jackets from Huckberry

It’s hard to believe it’s Friday, and it’s even more difficult for me to believe that I’m back in the States after a whirlwind week that touched on a bit of everything as it relates to my many freelance writing pursuits. In covering everything from menswear to watches, I attended New York Fashion Week last week and saw new watches from Breitling and new (old) vintage menswear from L.L. Bean, as you might have seen on my Instagram.

And then from there, it was time to get down to the real business seen at the top of the page: A lightning-fast, 48-hour trip South of the Border earlier this week with none other than El Tesoro Tequila. It was part of a trip to sample expressions new and old at the famed La Alteña Distillery in the highlands outside of Guadalajara, and it was well worth the short turnaround time.

It was also well worth adding another arrow to my quiver, so to speak, in terms of covering spirits for sites like Maxim.com (in addition to the fine menswear you see on this site and at my other bylines).

The absolutely gorgeous agave fields proved a stunning highlight, as did a distillery tour that included sampling tequila right from the still (a high ABV mixed with a dangerously delicious taste and old-world craft). We also sampled some stellar El Tesoro flagship expressions and enjoyed an excellent, stone oven-fired traditional Mexican lunch. Most notably for yours truly: The chance to sample a top-secret, as-yet-to-be-announced release that uses, let’s say, some distinctive aging processes.

In fact, it builds on the El Tesoro legacy as the oldest traditionally made tequila in the world, and again, it was well worth the short yet highly informative, highly delicious visit. Look for much more on my trip to Mexico in the weeks ahead!

Best waxed trucker jacket for men.

Now, let’s shift gears here from some of the best tequila on the market to some of the best fall menswear, as I find the two go hand in hand quite nicely these days. That holds especially true if you’re shopping just about any new collection from the good folks at Huckberry, very much including the new Huckberry Waxed Jacket Outpost.

Huckberry waxed jackets review.

A full lineup of versatile, rugged and nearly too-good-to-be-true waxed jackets is dropping every week as we roll into fall, and if you haven’t yet experienced the joy of the wear-with-just-about-anything Flint and Tinder Waxed Trucker Jacket, there’s positively never been a better time.

In fact, I trust Huckberry menswear to help me crisscross the continent and the globe, as I wore my tough-as-nails Proof Rover Pants out into the agave fields (watch my Instagram soon for a recap post, of course). In my experience, the brand’s gear is as reliable as it gets, whether you opt for a classic Huckberry ballcap or something more sturdy and yet refined, like its Rhodes Footwear lineup of boots.

Either way –with excellent El Tesoro Tequila or hard-working Huckberry menswear — you can’t go wrong any way you slice it this fine early (early) fall weekend. Check back tomorrow for the first of two regularly scheduled fall weekend style posts, and let’s raise a glass in fine fashion, my friends. Salud!

You might be of the mind that you’ve exhausted all your options when it comes to finding a pair of the best sneakers for men to buy in 2025 and 2026, but I’m here to tell you that’s certainly not the case with today’s standout deal. And in fact, you’re able to get an ideal mix of quality and style from GREATS, the Brooklyn-based sneaker upstart with a standout history of hitting the mark on both fronts.

GREATS men's sneakers review.

Better still is today’s deal: A chance to secure a pair of retro-style men’s sneakers at a real double whammy of a price. The GREATS Greenpoint Runners build off the New York City brand’s penchant for iconic styles made with durable materials — all the while in on-trend silhouettes. And better still is the deal you’re getting on these crisp, classic sneakers: Try ’em on for 50 percent off via the GREATS Outlet now.

I’ve been a fan of GREATS for close to a decade now, be it trying out timeless sneakers for early fall or looking back on one of my very first GREATS sneaker reviews years ago. Thankfully, the GREATS Greenpoint Runners harken back to the brand’s early days in terms of consistent quality, classic-yet-modern style and a cool-as-can-be silhouette.

And at under $100, the GREATS Greenpoint Runners are some of the most affordable designer-quality sneakers on the market, made with premium leather, soft suede and durable nylon for good measure. This particular colorway pairs with anything in your wardrobe — from light wash denim now to tobacco-hued chinos in early fall — and again, you can’t beat some of the best sneakers for men at 50 percent off.

The Sunday Sale: Join Now and Save On Menswear Favorites with the GQ Box

As I scour the Web for the best menswear deals, I often turn a weather eye toward the best subscription boxes for men, which are often a true one-stop shop (or one-stop “box”) for a wide variety of savings on gear, menswear, tech, the best men’s grooming goods and more.

And lately, I’ve been quite impressed with the GQ Box, a rather new entry into the world of men’s subscription boxes.

Companies like Bespoke Post, a personal favorite subscription box of mine, have had the market cornered for years, so why not leave it to one of the top men’s style and lifestyle publications on the planet to draw up a finely crafted set of style and gear essentials?

There’s plenty to love about the GQ Box, which takes a finely curated, premium approach to men’s goods of all sorts — and the savings are no slouch, either. First-time subscribers to GQ Box can get their first box for as low as $39 — and at a value of more than $300.

The contents of each Box are expertly selected, from skincare to accessories to sunglasses, everyday carry pieces, stylish socks and much more — all seasonally appropriate and cool as can be, of course.

That’s a heck of a deal on GQ-approved products, is it not? Of course, there’s also the GQ Box Exclusive Store, another way to stock your cart with top-of-the-line menswear, grooming goods, tech, everyday carry gear and more — all with one-off purchases, of course.

Yet the true mark of savings comes from that first-time sign-up deal: First-time subscribers to GQ Box can get their first box for as low as $39. If you end up signing up for the GQ Box, feel free to let me know in the comments below.

The Sunday Sale: Save 40 Percent On This Classic, Military-Inspired Relwen Combat Jacket at Huckberry

Best military jacket for men.

In my experience, at times, the best style essentials — or rather, most of the best style essentials — draw inspiration from the past to craft rugged, versatile style for the future (and the present). That holds true with throwback-yet-timeless picks like the henley, the Oxford shirt or the blue jean, as well as one of the best military jackets on the market. And that’s where Relwen once again enters the fray.

Assuredly, you know the brand — as sold by Huckberry — if you’ve passed on by this blog over the years. They mine military heritage and classic styles (like one of the coolest shawl cardigans on the market) for looks that are every bit as functional as they are formidable.

And certainly, the Relwen Combat Jacket is no exception, with its Korean and Vietnam War-era military inspiration.

Even better? One of the best men’s military jackets is now on sale for a whopping 40 percent off via the always-intriguing Huckberry Sale section. Let’s take a closer look at the Relwen Combat Jacket and see what makes it worth your hard-earned dough, shall we? It starts with an exterior that’s wind and weather-resistant, made from a blend of cotton and nylon and then lined in polyester for a touch of warmth.

Plus, the Relwen Combat Jacket is actually not just one jacket, but two (an even better deal for the current sale price). There’s a handy, warm snap-in liner for breezy spring days and even brisk fall and winter days — one that’s actually also what Huckberry rightfully calls a “handsome bomber jacket.”

This rugged military jacket is packed with bells and whistles aplenty, including a foldover collar you can turn up against the wind — not to mention ribbed cuffs for protection against breezes.

Relwen men's jacket review.

As if that wasn’t enough, the Relwen Combat Jacket boasts an inner body lined in cozy fleece for even more warmth — at every step of the way, one of the best military jackets for men has your next move covered. Black oxidized Relwen-branded hardware delivers durability where you need it the most (for hauling your everyday carry essentials, of course).

And front-button hip and chest pockets (plus a side-entry hip pocket design) deliver that critical storage space. Lest we forget, the simply outstanding Relwen Combat Jacket is now 40 percent off via one of your favorite retailers, Huckberry. That’s a deal worth celebrating and shopping right now, ASAP.

The Sunday Sale: Shop the Last Day of the Huckberry Annual Winter Sale to Save As Much as 45 Percent on the Best Menswear & Gear

Folks, it’s a big day in more ways than one: Sure, it’s Super Bowl Sunday (who are you rooting for?) but it’s also the last day to shop the Huckberry Annual Winter Sale. One of these things is not like the other, to be sure, but if you’ve read the blog on the regular, you’ll know that I’m never one to pass up a good deal.

And that’s particularly true when it comes to Huckberry menswear, be it one of the company’s famous in-house brands like Flint and Tinder, or the full roster of standout retailers the company stocks, including Taylor Stitch. There’s a massive array of deals to be had, with savings of up to 45 percent.

As for me, I’ve got my eye on the Flint and Tinder Quilted Waxed Shirt Jacket (at a whopping 40 percent off), plus a full lineup of military-inspired, stylish Relwen jackets that draw from classic military styles like the Chief Petty Officer jacket.

Of course, you’ll also find handsome wool slipper boots for brisk mornings, plus the best everyday carry gear from Huckberry favorite GORUCK. There’s plenty to sort through, though, so I’ll leave you to shop the Huckberry Annual Winter Sale ASAP. Cheers and we’ll see you out there, my friends.
