Christmas Gift Guide: The best of the sales

When searching for those gifts, you don’t always have to focus your vision on the newest, biggest and brightest items on the market. There are often many gems to be found in the pre-Christmas sales. Who wouldn’t want a beautiful suit for half the price? Who wouldn’t want to feel the softness of cashmere with the knowledge that you obtained it for less than its retail price? You’re beginning to see the picture now. So, ever with the modern gentleman’s interests at heart, we’ve compiled a little gift guide with some of the best sales items to create a complete outfit.

Regardless of season, a fine suit is something all gentlemen should own – so why not buy one in the sales? This suit from Richard James Mayfair – the sister of Savile Row tailor Richard James – is perfect, high-quality and seasonal.
