Fresh Deals


Crepe Sole Shoes from H by Hudson
Save up to 65% Crepe sole shoes are made from textured sheets of coagulated latex, a material that offers noticeable flexibility and cushioning.

Prices are $70 or less and styles include derbies, loafers and chukkas, among others.

Handmade Chelsea Boots from Astorflex
Save $45 Astorflex’s Bitflex provides a model example of what a Chelsea boot can be: it’s handmade in Italy in an eco-friendly process using premium leather and a natural rubber sole. It sounds like hippie-fodder, but it’s handsome enough to pull off at sophisticated summer gatherings. Right now, they’re on sale for $45 less than their full price.— Tanner Bowden


The Best Hiking Socks Available
Save up to 70%: Socks don’t have the same appeal as technical daypacks or down jackets — they’re boring. They aren’t something we get excited to buy. Like all outdoor gear, technical socks — this means zoned cushioning, improved durability and merino wool — serve a purpose. They prevent blisters, frostbite and trench foot. In a word, they’re vital.

They can also be expensive though, but there’s a big difference between a $25 pair and the kind that come in packs of 12. Luckily, Backcountry is hosting a massive sale on all types of technical socks for running, skiing and more, and it includes some of the best hiking socks available. — Tanner Bowden



Levi’s Warehouse Sale
Save 70% Finding the perfect pair of jeans is akin to locating the ideal bottle of wine — tricky, dependent on the day and the weather. And you’ll likely have to test a lot to figure out what your preferences are. While we can’t help you figure out if you like red or white best, we can direct you to the massive sale that’s happening at Levi’s, a heralded name in the denim world. And if you don’t have a pair yet, now’s the ideal time to save on jeans. Just be warned, you will have to enter your email address to get access to the warehouse sale. But the sale is vast — beyond jeans, you can shop for shirts, outerwear, sweaters and sweatshirts all for 70 percent off. — Meg Lappe


Finex Cast-Iron Skillets
Save 25%Love them or despise them, Finex’s cast-iron cookware inspires a certain level of devotee that few other cookware items can claim. Its octagonal shape, golden lid pull, machine-smoothed cooking surface and stainless steel coil handle (which I’m not completely sold on) are instantly recognizable, and a large part of the pan’s allure. On the other end of the love-hate spectrum lies the price — $125 for an 8-inch skillet, $175 for a 10-inch skillet and $195 for a 12-inch skillet (that’s without a lid).

Today on Massdrop, this problem is alleviated (somewhat) — the 8-, 10- and 12-inch skillets are all discounted significantly (click “Join Drop” to get exact prices on each). The drop includes the option to pick up a lid as well, if desired. — Will Price



American Trench Ventile Jackets
Save 25%: We usually tend to avoid cotton in looking for a piece of outerwear; “cotton is rotten,” the old hiker’s mantra goes. The primary reason for that is because cotton garments absorb moisture easily and once they’re wet their warmth benefits are zapped. Not ventile though. Ventile is made from 100 percent extra-long-staple cotton that’s woven in such a tight weave that it’s water repellant.

American Trench’s Ventile jackets — a field coat and a bomber — are also treated with DWR as an extra barrier against the elements. Both are military-inspired styles, which makes sense because Ventile’s first application was in the immersion suits worn by British fighter pilots during WWII and the British Royal Air Force still uses it today. Beyond that, Sir Edmund Hillary wore a Ventile jacket during the first-ever ascent of Mount Everest.

Right now both of these jackets are available for 25 percent off; use the code LAYERUP for the discount. — Tanner Bowden

Vans Vault Leather Sneakers
Save up to 59%:Every so often it’s worth treating yourself to something nice. Take, for instance, a pair of everyday sneakers from Vans. You could either buy a pair of classic canvas Old Skools for $60, or you could treat yourself to something nice and pick up a pair of premium leather Old Skools from Vans Vault for as little as $59. It’s kind of a no-brainer. To pick up that style — or a handful of others — head over to End, where leather shoes from Vans Vault are currently up to 59 percent off. — John Zientek
