If you’re looking for smart summer style upgrades, this Banana Republic sale is stacked. Lightweight linen-blend chinos, breezy resort shirts, textured polos that don’t cling like a gym tee in August. Most of it’s up to 60% off with an extra 20% on top, and this time the good stuff isn’t buried under 19 pages of “final sale” no-sizes filler.
A lot of these pieces punch above their weight. The sneakers, the belts, and the Oxford are clean, classic designs with details that look closer to premium labels like Todd Snyder or Buck Mason. And for the fall-friendly stuff like the plaid shirt jacket, the styling’s sharp enough that waiting a few weeks to wear them feels like a fair trade for how much you’re saving.
This is the rare moment when affordable, quality, and easy actually line up. If you missed our piece on that dynamic, it’s worth a read. In the meantime, these are the picks we’d grab before sizes disappear.
Standard-Fit Embroidered Linen Long-Sleeve Resort Shirt, $87.99 $140
Save $52.01 (37% off)
This looks like something you’d see hanging in a boutique in Silver Lake or snapped on a rooftop in Marrakech. The geometric stripe give it that $300 Todd Snyder-adjacent energy. Wear it open over a tank or wear it solo. It’s vacation-shirt DNA with grown-up tailoring. In my Getup above it adds modern desert vibes to some otherwise classic staples.
Stinson Leather D-Ring Belt, $47.99 $80
Save $32.01 (40% off)
Most D-ring belts men come across are webbed fabric. Going leather gives you that cool slouchy look of a braided belt with the summer nautical feel of a D-ring.
Remmy Sunglasses by Raen, $59.98 $150
Save $90.02 (60% off)
These are name-brand shades at a fraction of the price I paid for them a couple of years ago. I have not been shy about my love for champagne-colored sunglasses and these got scooped up early on in my quest.
Seadrift Leather Belt, $23.98 $80
Save $56.02 (70% off)
Getting belts on sale is a smart move, while it's not hard to find a sub-$40 leather belt, getting a higher quality one while on deep discount gives you longevity and patina.
Straight Authentic Jean, $39.98 $120
Save $80.02 (67% off)
A classic straight leg in a black rinse, no overly done distressing. The denim will undeniably be better than the lower tiered sister brand Old Navy's similar offering.
Standard-Fit Oxford Shirt, $43.99 $70
Save $26.01 (37% off)
Mid-weight cotton with just enough structure at the collar and placket. Roll the sleeves or button up, either way, you’ve got an essential that’s nearly half off, so scoring a second color feels totally justified.
Athletic Slim Linen-Cotton Chino, $59.99
Lightweight linen + stretch for chinos that look sharp without feeling like you’re wearing army pants in July. At this price, you’re basically stealing breezy comfort that usually rings in north of 80 bucks.
Standard-Fit Jacquard Stripe Resort Shirt, $63.99 $100
Save $36.01 (36% off)
The jacquard weave reads premium and those raised stripes aren’t just for show, they add structure so it never drapes like a sack.
Waffle-Weave Resort Polo, $38.39 $80
Save $41.61 (52% off)
Textured like a fluffy spa towel, but with a collar that says you still know what day it is. It breathes better than your average knit, so you stay chill on blistering afternoons.
Slim-Fit Linen-Cotton Dress Shirt, $55.99 $110
Save $54.01 (49% off)
Clean lines, narrow shoulders and just enough body to tuck or untuck depending on your mood. The linen-cotton blend cuts down on some of the wrinkles a linen shirt guarantees, so you spend less time steaming and more time actually getting out the door.
Nicklas Leather Sneaker 2.0, $55.99 $120
Save $64.01 (53% off)
Clean low-top silhouette in smooth leather, moisture-wicking OrthoLite insole for all-day strolling, warm cognac tone that pairs with shorts or chinos.
Straight Authentic Jean, $63.99 $120
Save $56.01 (47% off)
Contemporary straight leg in a light blue wash, mid-weight denim that’s neither flimsy nor board-stiff. An alt to my go-to 501.
Leather Penny Loafer, $135.99 $220
Save $84.01 (38% off)
Polished burgundy leather, hand-stitched apron front, Blake Stitch construction that hints at investment-grade quality for the guy that doesn't need it.
Plaid Shirt Jacket, $71.98 $180
Save $108.02 (60% off)
Looks like a pull from a more premium brand like Corridor or Todd Snyder. Brushed wool-blend with bold grey and navy checks, chest pockets for whatever you need to stash, button-front you can layer over denim or knits.
