Are you in dire need of a temporary salve for your Seasonal Affective Disorder? We’re not sure if retail therapy is a lasting cure, but the Presidents’ Day clothing deals sure seem convinced otherwise. If you’re off skiing somewhere scenic for the holiday, congratulations. The snow is bound to be good, and we wish we were there. But in case you aren’t navigating a trail map while you read this, there are some positively ludicrous bargains to assuage you mid-winter blues. (Last we checked, the internet still works around the campfire.)
If we’re catching you mid-slalom, you might want to swerve off the slopes for a second, because said sales are hitting—hard. Like, peak holiday-season hard. Which means no matter what you’re looking for—cold-weather base layers, outfit-making show-stoppers, a brand new office wardrobe—you’re likely to find it discounted, at least for the weekend.
So whether you’re slopeside, poolside, fireside or just inside this holiday, these are the Presidents’ Day clothing deals we’re jonesing to take advantage of right now. Oh, and if you’re worried about buying a bunch of winter gear this late in the season, take it up with Punxsutawney Phil. For now, it seems the vindictive groundhog was right—at least in the places winter still exists.
The Best of the Presidents’ Day Clothing Deals
While Abercrombie thrives year-round these days, they go off when the weather gets warmer. Is it warmer now? No, but it presumably will be, and for the weekend, you can take 20% off nearly the entire Abercrombie site—which is absolutely stocked with some of their best cold-weather staples right now, as well as a whole range of new, spring-friendly styles.
You probably know American Trench for their socks—if you don’t, there’s time to rectify that blind spot—but if you haven’t indulged in the rest of their impeccably made, impossibly comfortable line, you’re missing out on some of the hardest-wearing, least-fussy closet staples and wardrobe basics you can find. And great news for you, an insane number of winter styles are up to 30% off this weekend. (And yes, the socks are too.)
The Banana Republic comeback is well-documented on this site, and the great news is that they’re showing zero signs of fall-off. The better news is that for cardmembers, BR is offering 30% off full-price purchases through Feb. 17, and for everyone else, they’ve knocked 40% off nearly their entire sale section, which is brimming with top-tier trousers, swaggering suits and all manner of foundational pieces.
Whether you’re searching for some everyday staples, long-lasting basics or just something to spackle over a hole in an otherwise humming rotation, Everlane has a whole host—over 300 products, for those into stats—of ethically-produced, effortlessly styled pieces with discounts starting at 40%.
From now through Feb. 18, Gap is giving you 40-60% off sweaters, tees and sweats—aka the holy trinity—which also happen to be things Gap does incredibly well. If you thought it stopped there, however, you’ll be happy to know that you’ll find pretty much all their sneaky-great pants discounted in a big way, and pretty much anything else you could be on the hunt for, too.
Huckberry’s winter sale is one of the better all-around sales you can find—in regards to both value and utility—and even though it’s been running for a couple weeks, there’s still a ton of hard-wearing, hard-living, hard-to-beat inventory left to exponentially improve whatever everyday adventures you happen to be embarking on.
If you haven’t noticed, J.Crew is firing on every cylinder at the moment, which is great news for virtually anyone in the business of Wearing Clothes. Even better news, however, is that from now until Feb. 19, the venerable brand is offering 40% off over 250 current season styles during their Pre-Spring event, as well as an additional 50% off anything already on sale.
No point in beating around the bush: Levi’s pre-spring sale is on, which means they’ve knocked up to 40% off the original price of hundreds of items. And yes, that does include basically every iconic cut in the catalog—even the flared 517’s, which you could consider an on-ramp into the ultra-flared Celine territory making all sorts of headlines.
If Madewell’s stocked sale section wasn’t enticing enough on its own, this weekend the generous folks over there are offering an additional 30% off the entire thing, which includes some of our favorite jersey-knit basics, relaxed denim, easygoing button ups and anything else you’d consider a closet cornerstone.
Mr. Porter’s sale tab has turned into a more permanent feature over the past few seasons, but that means there’s always deals to be had. And despite some dwindling inventory levels, you can still find some of the finest menswear in the world for up to 70% off their original price.
The first name in American fashion’s sale section is brimming with bonkers deals at the moment—and we highly recommend perusing those—but for anyone in the market for some of their more elevated fare, their designer sale just kicked off, which includes a whole smattering of Purple Label, Collection, RRL and Home at 30% off.
Regardless of your threshold for inclement weather, February isn’t a banner outdoors month. But—BUT—that doesn’t mean it’s not a banner time to save at REI, one of the best outdoor retailers on the planet, where you can take up to 50% new markdowns. Oh, and if you’re a member, REI’s also giving you $20 off every $100 you spend at the outlet.
SSENSE is a Canadian company and Presidents’ Day is very much referring to the American genre, but that doesn’t mean the sale is any less potent. In fact, not only can you find thousands of styles discounted up to 70%, but you’ll also get free shipping on any sale order over $300 this weekend, just to sweeten the deal.
Over the past few years, Todd Snyder has turned itself into one of the most complete brands in menswear—and it also happens to have one of the best sale sections on the internet right now, where you’ll find winter standouts and staples alike for 20-40% off their original prices.
More Presidents’ Day Sales Worth Your Time
