Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Men
Some of my favorite men items from the sale!

1. Nike Court Vision Mid Next Nature

After Sale: $85
I own a pair of Pandas that I love and these are a similar style. These are sure to be admired and complimented.
2. Nike Air Max Flyknit Racer NN Sneaker
Sale: $124.99
After Sale: $160
Heritage details meet runner-tech performance in a sneaker that sets a low, throwback profile on a bubble of springy Max Air cushioning.
I’m a huge fan of Flyknits. They’re the most comfortable shoe on the market. I have a couple pairs of Flyknit 1s and wouldn’t use them for lifting based on the sole construction, but I wear them everywhere else. Nordstrom also has a charcoal / black & white and anthracite black version.
3. Nike Blazer Low ’77 Sneaker
Sale: $67.99
After Sale: $90
Old-school b-ball is alive and scoring in a '70s-reissue low-top sporting a streamlined profile and sleek autoclaved sole that keep the vintage vibes hustling.
Retro vibe sneakers that go well with all outfits casual. A lot like the Killshot 2s I’ve been wearing for years, but less played out.
4. Nike Air Max Alpha Trainer 5 Shoe
Sale: $xxx
After Sale: $xxx
Constructed with a wide, flat base for enhanced stability with every step, this cushioned running shoe is up to the task.
My Alpha Trainer 4s have been my go to shoe for the gym for the past year+. They’re great for lifting in the gym as well as cardio. Great stability and the mesh fabric upper provides breathability.
5. Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 40 Running Shoe

After Sale: $130
Move with ease from the gym to the road in this airy running shoe boasting a cushy collar and a flexible, durable sole for smooth stepping.
Pegasus is my go to all purpose shoe designed for the impact of running, but comfortable and stylish enough to wear practically anywhere. Comes in blue as well.
6. Sorel Madson II Moc Toe Waterproof Boot

After Sale: $200
Ready for rainy days, this seam-sealed waterproof boot is designed for optimal comfort with a padded collar, EVA cushioning and sturdy tread sole.
This is a stylish and sharp waterproof boot, making it a great cold weather and wet environment option. As you’d expect from Sorrel, these will keep your feet warm even in sub-zero temps. A comfortable, durable, yet stylish choice.
7. Bruno Magli Silas Penny Loafer

Sharp contrast stitching touches up a handsome Italian loafer with a smart, durable sole.
I’ve never regretted buying a pair of Bruno Maglis. The Italian craftsmanship is stunning and they’re comfortable to wear. These penny loafers are versatile; you’ll get a lot of use out of them. Also comes in navy and a more muted brown.
8. Quay Jackpot 50mm Polarized Round Sunglasses – Sold Out

Glare-reducing polarized lenses add everyday utility to effortlessly stylish sunglasses complete with a keyhole bridge.

After Sale: $59.50
Sunny days only get better in these breezy chambray shorts that have a hint of stretch for fluid movement.
Chambray shorts should be a part of every man’s wardrobe for versatile summer wear. At 8″, the inseam isn’t overly short; the model pictured must be very tall. Comes in 3 colors (above + light gray / white and burgundy).

I’ve never owned a better pair of jeans than my rag & bones and jump on the opportunity to buy them on sale. This cut in particular suits me better than Fit 1s (below), given they’re slightly roomier than the Fit 1s, which are a true skinny. They also come in gray.

Faded to old-favorite perfection, these streetwise jeans sport a close fit and a touch of stretch to keep you comfortable day and night.

A styled-up version of your favorite college sweatshirt gets a refined remix when it's knit from a luxe yarn pairing of wool and cashmere.

Soft structure and natural shoulders offer easy appeal in this single-breasted Italian sport coat in a breathable blend of wool, silk and linen.
Everyone should have at least one properly fitting sport coat in their closet. I’ve fallen ion love with every Ted Baker piece I’ve bought. This is a great option to stand out a bit from the crowd. Goes great with some dark jeans or dressed up. This is a slim fit cut.
