The Sunday Sale: Save 30 Percent and More at Mott and Bow’s First-Ever Winter Sale

Mott and Bow men's jeans

What’s a guy to do if he wants an upgraded set of the best blue jeans for men? For now, the answer is easy: Head over to NYC denim upstart Mott and Bow and shop the brand’s long-awaited, first-ever online sale. Yes, that’s right: The brand that makes some of your favorite jeans is running its first-ever sale, and it just so happens to dovetail nicely with a stylish start to 2023.

HELM Boots- $50 Off Your First Purchase

If you’ve read the blog over the years, I’m a big fan of Mott and Bow’s lightweight denim (and I’ve said as much in my Mott and Bow review posts!), and if you give the brand a chance when it comes to the best men’s jeans, I think you’ll start to feel similarly as you dive into the Mott and Bow Winter Sale.

Best men's blue jeans.

Think of it this way: If you’ve been on the fence about picking up some new denim and want an easy and hassle-free way to do just that, the Mott and Bow Winter Sale is a perfect place to start. For one, there’s the brand’s free home try-on program, and beyond that, the fact that the Mott and Bow Winter Sale delivers stylish men’s jeans for at least 30 percent off is mighty handy, too.

Of course, the Mott and Bow Winter Sale also offers up discounts on stylish Mott and Bow sweaters, classic and comfortable Mott and Bow French terry sweats and a wide array of jeans for men in plenty of colors and fits. Even better is the fact that as of now, the Mott and Bow Winter Sale should have a range of sizes available in some essential styles when it comes to the best jeans for men. And yet, the Mott and Bow Winter Sale won’t stick around forever, so shop smartly to upgrade your jeans in the new year. Cheers, my friends!

The Friday Read: Cheers to 2023 & A Thank You From Brooklyn

Pappy Van Winkle whiskey.

My friends, it seems like just days ago I was clocked in and talking to you about starting 2022 in style — and yet, now we sit on the verge of 2023. How about that, ehh? It was a momentous year for The Style Guide, if I do say so myself, with a daily publishing schedule and plenty of opportunity to spotlight favorite brands and retailers, be it Todd Snyder or Billy Reid or Buck Mason — the list goes on, of course.

Through it all, throughout another full calendar year of freelance writing pursuits & world travels via my Instagram, consider this a heartfelt, deep and true THANK YOU for your support of The Style Guide!

I launched this blog way back in 2013 in my college bedroom with a desire to better understand the basics of versatile, everyday menswear from denim to boots to Oxford shirts — and along the way, I hoped to perhaps impact a few fellow readers who felt the same about great style. My blog helped me dive into the world of fashion, land fashion PR internships and fashion PR agency jobs, and eventually, build a freelance career doing what I truly love. If that sounds a bit too simple, well, trust me when I say I can’t quite believe it either… most days, at least.

And on that note: Thank you for reading and for engaging with my work! If this blog has helped you improve your wardrobe in any way, large or small, that’s more than I could ever ask for… and I mean that sincerely!

Of course, there’s still one more 2022 headed your way tomorrow (my weekend Style Pick, naturally). In the meantime, perhaps you’ve got your mind set on stepping into a new year in style with on-sale menswear from Taylor Stitch or else the Huckberry See You Out There Sale — I can vouch for both, trust me on that. Either of those sales are more than worth your time, and perhaps even worth a toast of coveted Pappy Van Winkle whiskey to ring in 2023.

In fact, I wish I myself could raise a glass of the good stuff to the devoted readers of this small Brooklyn blog — I don’t have any Pappy in my home bar cart, but consider this a toast all the same. From me to you: Happy New Year, cheers to good health, great times and great style, and we’ll see you… next year!

That brings us to Todd Snyder, consistent maker of some of the best gear on the market for guys, be it a stylish linen blazer for summer or one of the best men’s watches.

The Tuesday Steal: Get An Extra 30 Percent off At the Grayers Winter Menswear Sale

Grayers brand review.

There are certain, well, certainties when shopping around for the best seasonal menswear, like the fact that the season is, eventually, going to start to wind down. But that’s where, you the discerning menswear shopper, are in luck, because that’s the best time to buy versatile gear you can wear into early (or even late!) spring. Enter the Grayers Men’s Winter Sale, one terrific source to get an extra 30 percent off your favorite winter menswear with the code EXTRA30. Deals like these don’t come around too often, as I say, and they certainly tend not to stick around for very long, either. Perhaps you already recognize Texas-based Grayers (so named for the preppy grey flannel pants, or “grayers,” worn at boarding schools back in the day). as the makers of one of the best shirt jackets for men.

Better still, you might know the brand as the purveyors behind the well-stocked Grayers Last Call sale section, an always-reliable source for the best menswear deals of the moment — and another great place to go if you don’t find anything you like in the Grayers Men’s Winter Sale. On that note though, I should think it’s going to be mighty hard not to find anything you enjoy among the best men’s winter style moves. Still with me? Keep on scrolling.

Best winter menswear on sale.

Within this frankly outstanding (and yet fast-moving!) menswear section, you’ll find rugged shirt jackets, some of the best henleys for men and plenty more picks you can start wearing now and keep on rocking through blustery spring days. Beyond that, the Grayers Men’s Winter Sale also offers stylish men’s chinos, stretch corduroy pants and an array of classics from the nicely designed, super-soft Grayers Athletics line.

BlackFridayBanner21

Many of these deals might seem too good to be true, with prices falling well below $100, but again, that’s what makes the Grayers Men’s Winter Sale a popular one these days. Heck, at last check, you’ll even find a classic men’s corduroy blazer for under $150. How’s that for one of the best menswear sales out there, right? If you end up finding something you like — no, love — within the Grayers Men’s Winter Sale, be sure to drop a comment below. Cheers and happy shopping!

The Friday Read: A Billykirk Sale, Your New Spring Jacket & GREATS Sneakers

OK, folks. It’s Friday. It’s been another week filled with plenty of change — and not always in the best way. But, like the “Change Is Good” stamped on the stylish leather valet tray from Billykirk shown above, maybe you’re using the time to contribute toward positive changes. That could be anything and everything from making donations, supporting your favorite local businesses, being more mindful of your purchases as you shop for the best new men’s gear … and at the same time, being mindful of your family and friends. It’s a heck of a lot to balance at once, so I thank you again for taking some time out of your day and weekend to join me here for another Friday Read. A word: Today’s post is a bit of an extended version of the Friday Read: Lots of ground to cover. Before we go any further, though: You can shop and give back to a good cause with Billykirk right now: The American-made leather goods brand is offering 25 percent off sitewide through its Spring Sale, with 10 percent going toward Feeding America — just use the code SALE25 at checkout, folks. OK back to business.

OLIVERS

As far as being mindful goes … heck, maybe you’ve found that with all this time at home, you need to organize your everyday carry essentials — and you need a new valet tray with which to do it. Whatever brings you here today, I hope you find what you’re looking for. If you’re a first responder or a medical professional, thank you for your work and your service — hopefully, this provides some respite (and yes, a few men’s style deals to shop, because that’s what we do here). Just as with last week, I’ve got some reading suggestions, some ongoing menswear sales and quite a few ways to shop and give back at the same time. As for my weekend plans? I’m going to be kicked back with some coffee from the excellent FourTillFour x Taylor Stitch partnership, and I plan on playing one of my favorite records this weekend, too (at least one, that is to say). What about you? To keep up with how I’m passing my time, and to get some spring style suggestions of your own, head to my Instagram. OK, let’s get into it. Thanks for reading!

    • I’ve talked quite a bit in these past few weeks about the importance of finding one of the best spring jackets for men — it’s still something that can come in handy on solitary hikes or even a quick jaunt to fill up that growler (hopefully, your favorite brewery is still pouring). On that note, I wrote for GearMoose about the Finisterre Aeris Jacket, a durable piece of spring outerwear that could become a new favorite. Head to the site to read more.
  • But one of the many men’s style essentials you can buy from Faherty Brand this weekend.

    • How about another look at how you  can shop and give back? It’s a theme of today’s post, to be sure, and you can continue to do so through Faherty Brand yet again. Now through Monday (the 13th), Faherty is offering select bestsellers for 40 to 70 percent off, folks. From the Knit Seasons Shirt to the brand’s stylish long-sleeve polo, the picks are plentiful. That’s not all: Faherty Brand is also donating 2 percent of sales through the month of April to those impacted by COVID-19, and on top of that, they’ve banded up with a collective of like-minded brands called Brands x Better — this is great work that we should all support (and look great while doing so!)
    • Let’s keep looking at brands making a difference.  Ably Apparel has launched a pretty neat one-for-one program called Get One, Give One to honor first responders. To wit: Ably is offering 25 percent off the entire website and with every purchase, donating an item in support of frontline first responders. That’s a pretty great effort, right? On top of that, Ably is also calling on their social followers to tag a first responder — or for first responders to tag themselves — in Ably’s comments and in return they’ll gift them an item from their website. Again a terrific effort. Check this brand out.

    • OK, more good news on the ways in which brands are giving back. Through the rest of the month, Brooklyn sneaker brand GREATS — yes, the makers of some of your favorite sneakers — will be donating $15 from every order to City Harvest, New York City’s largest food rescue organization.  That $15 wil help provide food to a family of three for 15 days. All you have to  do is buy some of the best men’s sneakers of the  moment — another great effort from a truly “great” brand, yes
    • How about something ELSE related to … online shopping? The good folks at O.N.S. Clothing are running a Sitewide Sale through Sunday, offering you 20 percent off of purchases of $150 with the code GET20, on up to 30 percent off purchases of $350 or more with the code GET30. Plus, they’ll throw in a free T-shirt with purchases of $250 and up, to go along with free domestic shipping (and free international shipping on orders of $300 and up). They make cozy, rugged-yet-refined sweaters and essential spring layers, so get to it.

OK, it’s time I left you with one last piece of reading here for the weekend. And it’s a style suggestion too, naturally. The next time you want to look great and feel great on a Zoom call, throw on something a little bit more polished beneath your crewneck sweatshirt. I’m talking, of course, about the easygoing and classic Buck Mason Oxford Shirt, which I covered on  the blog here. It’s surely one of the best men’s shirts you can buy for spring — even if your spring involves working from the back patio with a happy hour beer rather than visiting your favorite brewery. OK, that’s all from me today. Enjoy the weekend, stay safe and feel free to reach out to me on Twitter if you feel so inclined. Cheers!
