Didn't buy jack shit from porter sale, prices are terrible and too many wardrobe staples nonsense to get around having to mark stuff down. I suspect they only did a fraction of the business they normally do and will probably go back to the 50 off the next time around.

Ya, this summer season is quite lackluster to me.

 

Almost nothing I want at Porter, P&B, a few 'maybes' at SS and Corner, but only at 40%+. Went to Berdorgf and Barneys, and only bought 1 shirt each. All in all, not very exciting.

they do have a pretty good selection of both Sacai and Ts(s) stuff... Prices are steep but maybe with the discount they will enter the ream of what is feasible.

Could you elaborate on that a bit? I'm new here and I've never seen a porter sale before (haven't been watching them very long). What can I expect from the sale? I'm hoping to pick up a few pairs of pants as well as a jacket.

When the sale opens to the public it is only 30% off and any item that is marked "wardrobe staple" does not go on sale so look at each item you want carefully. I think there is another term they use too, it might be "new season" which obviously won't go on sale because they just got it in. Their prices are average to a tad bit higher than other retailers as well. Service is alright, dispatch and shipping are dirt slow to the west coast, fast as hell if you're on the east. Their wrapping and packaging is wasteful as well. If you signed up on the site before it went live over a year ago you were granted founding member status so you get access to the sale earlier than the public. No, there is no way to become a founding member after the fact. Also, to see sale prices you need to put the item in your cart, they are not reduced just by looking at the item which is pretty useless if you ask me. Sign up for their email list and they will let you know of the sale and as a bonus will spam your inbox every fucking day with useless historical and current celebrity clothing associations to make you think you will be just as cool if you purchase said items which you will not because let's face it, none of us are or will ever be Steve McQueen.

yeah, i'll be sure to add more to my wish list in the future with this in mind..

 

also FYI, by looking at the oos items, you might find it in stock in another size or another sale item through the "wear with" feature.  if the item suggested from the "wear with" feature is (presumably) no longer in stock, nothing is shown, but i found the rick stuff from looking at oos shoes in my wish list.
