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.

Seiko Men’s Stainless Steel Watch With Date
Currently over 80% off, this simple diver features a quartz movement and a date window, with water resistance up to 100m. FYI 80% off means it’s currently only $56.

Topo Designs
Currently up to 40% off, these sturdy bags are distinct with bright colors and an array of internal storage options.

KA-BAR Becker BK3 Tac Tool
Designed by knifemaker Ethan Becker and 20-year SWAT Team field commander John Benner, this limited edition tool (they’re only making 45 of ‘em) features a long cutting edge for slicing, slanted edges for prying, a cord cutter, and a serrated edge for wire-cutting and sawing. Now $100 (down from $167).

Frey
One reviewer likened the scent of this just-launched, concentrated laundry helper to a “nomad wizard lumberjack” (it’s really a clean forest-y whiff of cedarwood, oakmoss and amber … very masculine yet not aggressive). Add in natural ingredients and a socially and environmentally friendly mission statement (Frey is a Certified B Corporation), and you’ve got yet another direct-to-consumer brand that’s, ahem, cleaning up on its competitors. Buy in bundles (with fabric conditioner and dryer sheets) and you’ll save 10%.

Sales of note:

  • Nordstrom: Labor Day’s over, but Nordstrom’s taking off up to 40% on items (with free shipping) through 9/9.
  • Zolo Liberty+: Anker’s wireless earbuds are already a steal, but now they’re down to $99 (no code needed).
