Also from Simply Good Media:
The Deal: Get an extra 20% off clearance at Smartbargain.com
The Lowdown: Not everything you see at Smartbargains is exactly high style, but with designer goods to be had, and an extra 20% off already reduced prices, we'd take a look -- and possibly come away with something like this James Perse Contrast Stitch Blazer, for $89.97, or these versatile Bacco Bucci Tiago Leather Athletic Oxfords, on sale for $59.97.
Shop: Smartbargains.com
The Deal: Hurry! Save up to 75% now at Old Navy’s clearance event, only online
The Lowdown: Old Navy's been hitting hard with the end-of-the-year sales (would have liked to have seen a few more before the holidays, though) -- and up to 75% off clearance is worth a second look. We're all about the winter accessories at the moment, and with gloves and fleece hats for just $1.48 apiece? We're thinking of stocking up on holiday gifts for next year . . .
Shop: Old Navy
The Deal: Take 20% off any item with this coupon at Filene's Basement
The Lowdown: Okay, 20% off any one item doesn't sound like that big of a deal -- but if you consider that Filene's has high-ticket designer items (including suits and fine jewelry) at already discounted prices, 20% might just be quite the post-holiday haul (at a price low enough to fit your post-holiday budget). The downside of all this? Filene's Basement has no online shopping -- which means you'll have to schlepp to the store, assuming you're lucky enough to have one nearby. Visit the Filene's Basement website to find out ...
Shop: Filene's Basement -- and don't forget to take the coupon with you.
Fashion in 2008, like every other year, had its ups and downs (um, wedges for men?). One of our favorite things here at See Jack Shop is to get your take on what's happening out there, stylewise -- and we'd still like to know. So, as a year-end treat (lucky you!), here's a round-up of some of our favorite "Yea or Nay"s:
Wedges for Men? Yea or Nay -- Fendi showed them on the runway, but would you actually wear them to, say, that office party?
The Bow Tie: Yea or Nay? Kanye West wears them, but he also wears those weird louvered glasses.
Yea or Nay: Crocs. Okay, it's no secret that Jack don't love rubber shoes. But, if you do, go ahead and tell us -- we'll be nice.
Yea or Nay: Uggs for Men. It's cold outside -- and Uggs are warm. Really warm.
The Deal: Save up to 70% at the Armani Exchange Ciao! Sale, plus free shipping
The Lowdown: With up to 70% off designer-worthy goods at Armani Exchange, you're probably wondering, just what would Jack pick up at this sale? That's easy -- sweaters (like this shawl collar zip sweater, on sale for $29-$49), outerwear (like this fur lined cotton bomber, $99), and denim (we actually kind of dig these rinse knee-pieced jeans, for $59).
Shop: Armani Exchange (free shipping on orders of $75 or more with code: CIAOSALE)
The Deal: Get 25% off of all men's items at CKU Calvin Klein Underwear
The Lowdown: Didn't get those boxer briefs you were craving for the holidays? Yeah, okay, so you weren't craving them but you probably need them -- Calvin Klein underwear is great quality, and with 25% off, now's the time to stock up.
Start with a classic like this Steel Micro boxer brief (on sale $19.50), and if you're feeling adventurous, try the 365 boxer brief. In camoflauge. We won't tell anyone.
Shop: CKU.com
The Deal: Save up to 60% at Old Navy
The Lowdown: Okay, by now you probably know if you got everything you wanted for the holiday -- and that means you know what you might need to break down and buy for yourself after all. If that happens to include apparel items, hit Old Navy online today and get up to 60% off everything from t-shirts and button downs to jackets, hoodies, sweaters (including this bold stripe v-neck for just 10 bucks) and more.

The Deal: Save Up to 50% Off at Brooks Brothers Semi-Annual Sale through Jan. 5 and 12/25 and 12/26, get an additional 15% off
today and tomorrow only!
The Lowdown: Half off at Brooks Brothers is a significant savings indeed -- partly because prices are pretty high to begin with. However, the goods are high-quality and so you get value in return for your hard-earned cash. Honestly, we'd skip things like cashmere and casual wear -- because you can pick decent pieces of each elsewhere for less -- and jump right to the investment types of pieces -- suits, jackets and outerwear.
Shop: Brooks Brothers

The Deal: Men’s Pants on Sale at Gap through Dec. 25
The Lowdown: From Gap's traditional khakis to some pretty modern straight fit dress pants, Gap has a pretty sweet selection of pants on sale now -- with prices starting at $19.99. Now might be the perfect time to invest in a new pair or two -- particularly if, after all that holiday indulging, you might need a little extra room in the waistband.
