Kind of a Big Deal: October 11th

Welcome to Kind of a Big Deal, a daily roundup of great sales on the brands and items you love (tech, shoes, style, travel, etc.), as well as great new products. Please note: Deals are subject to change at the whim of the merchants mentioned.

HELLO 2
If your office conferencing consists of slapping together Google Hangouts and FreeConferenceCall (eh, that might just be us), it’s time to say HELLO … 2. The second iteration of this video unit turns your TV into an encrypted video conferencing system, and also acts as a digital whiteboard, screen sharer, security cam, gaming system and voice assistant. Devices start at $399, and bundles can save you over 50%.

Alsace Laguiole Steak Knife Set
Dishwasher-safe, stainless-steel blades with a three-rivet curved handle. Looks pretty elegant for a steak knife, but the price ($30, or 29% off) is decidedly down to earth.

Design Within Reach Semi-annual Sale
Save 15% off an array of modern design furniture, from Adirondack chairs to extension tables and ladder shelving.

SALES OF NOTE: 

• Indochino: Promising their “best suits at their lowest prices for 2018,” premium suits start from just $359 with the code PREMIUM (ends today).
• Men’s Shoe Clearance: Nordstrom Rack has up to 89% off (!) hundreds of men’s shoes.

And don’t forget….

• These are the 8 underrated fall layering pieces every guy should own.
• Huckberry’s new All-Weather Duckboot conquers puddles, fits like a sneaker
• And while it’s (almost) impossible to buy 2019’s best whisky, we have some suggestions for doing just that

Nota bene: If you buy through these links, InsideHook may earn a small share of the profits on some items
