If there’s one thing J.Crew is known for, it’s their insane collection of prep-tinged heritage Americana at mall brand pricing. If there’s two things the brand is known for, it’s that and its tendency to casually drop the most insane sale your menswear-obsessed eyes have ever seen.

Banana Republic, Abercrombie, Gap and moreThis week is no exception, and, given the time of year, the heritage brand is dangling seasonal styles at obscene prices as part of a massive J.Crew spring sale.

Prepare for Spring Showers
Spring may bring warmer temperatures, but it’s also a season notorious for nasty weather, a bane for any office-goer, particularly when it comes to dressing for a soggy commute. Luckily, the ‘Crew’s latest trench iteration — the Rivington, a charming, water-resistant shell that isn’t dissimilar to other heritage styles at a fraction of the price — makes short work of most rainclouds, especially when paired with appropriate leather footwear.
Embrace Your Inner JFK Jr.
Love is in the air — or Love Story certainly is. (As if you needed another reminder of the Kennedys’ prep prowess.) Borrow some inspiration and lean into Ivy staples — Northeast-coded Americana, white denim, popped-collar polos — for a look that will never go out of style. Just remember: despite what the clothes may telegraph, you are not a supermodel heir to a political dynasty.

Spring provides ample opportunity for sartorial exploration, and given the current uncertain state of jeans, it’s also the perfect time to try out a new style or silhouette. Boot-cut jeans may seem like a blast from the past, but a minimally flared leg adds an appropriate amount of intrigue to an otherwise standard denim-forward ‘fit.
