SEIKO Men's Automatic Watch
Original Price: $229.98
Sale Price: $192
Where to Buy It: Amazon
Like the rest of the internet, I have a newfound obsession with watches. A good majority are far, far out of my price range but luckily Seiko always has affordable, timeless watches on deck. This automatic timepiece features a stainless steel Milanese band and beige face with a retro feel. It’s a great summer staple you’ll be able to sport everyday. —Alessandra Maldonado
Malin + Goetz Eau de Parfums – For Men & Women, Dark Rum
Original Price: $96
Sale Price: $67.20
Where to Buy It: Amazon
Buying fragrances without smelling them first can be risky, but I promise any Malin + Goetz purchase is always a safe bet. Their Dark Rum eau de parfum is inspired by inspired by the old world bay rum drunk by sailors who sailed through the Caribbean. The dark and spicy notes of anise, leather, rum, and patchouli are balanced with bergamot, plum, vanilla, and amber, making it a versatile scent fit for anyone. I guarantee this scent is a head-turner. —Alessandra Maldonado
Oakley “Bathroom Sink” Backpack
Original Price: $152.84
Sale Price: $107.01
Where to Buy It: Amazon
Ever since I saw Junya Watanabe unveil a collaboration with Inneraum at Paris Fashion Week earlier this year, I’ve become obsessed with cyberpunk products that look like they were designed for androids of the future rather than us. While brands like Post Archive Faction and CGI are evoking this futuristic look I’m currently into, it isn’t exactly affordable. This Oakley “Bathroom Sink” backpack certainly fulfills those needs though and it’s being sold for a steal. The camouflage colorway on sale during Prime Day feels like something Master Chief would wear in Halo. While this doesn’t have the same carrying capacity as its older sibling, dubbed the “Kitchen Sink,” it still looks just as tough. I really might just pick this up to add to my ever-growing backpack collection. —Lei Takanashi
Oakley Radarlock Path Low Bridge Fit Sunglasses
Original Price: $155.40
Sale Price: $222
Where to Buy It: Amazon
If you checked out our “Amazon Prime Day Wardrobe Essentials” guide yesterday, you can already tell that I’m particularly obsessed with these deals for Oakley sunglasses. I’ve personally been eyeing a pair of Oakley sunglasses for a long time. Sadly, I can’t take up most of these Prime Day steals because I need prescription lenses, which are only available through Oakley’s own online store. However, as an Asian person who wears glasses, I was particularly happy to see that these low bridge Oakley Radarlock Path sunglasses were available in a “Low Bridge” fit. While there are some labels that specialize in making Asian eyewear (shouts out to Jins and Covry) it’s always refreshing to see larger brands create styles that fit our unique facial shapes. —Lei Takanashi
Carhartt WIP Men's Long Sleeve Chase T-Shirt
Original Price: $58
Sale Price: $43.50
Where to Buy It: Amazon
You may not be surprised to see workwear from a heritage brand like Carhartt being sold on Amazon. But you can also stumble upon some items from its streetwear-leaning sub-label Carhartt Work in Progress. This black long sleeve T-shirt from WIP isn’t a statement piece that will be turning heads, but it is a great essential to keep in your closet. Rock it with some shorts in the springtime or jeans in the chillier months. You’ll get plenty of mileage out of it. And it’s on sale? Even better. —Mike DeStefano
Ray-Ban Wayfarer Sunglasses
Original Price: $163
Sale Price: $114
Where to Buy It: Amazon
If you’re in search of an everyday pair of sunglasses and some sporty Oakley shades don’t fit your wardrobe, you can never go wrong with some Wayfarers. A classic black pair is the most versatile, but they’re offered in an array of lens and frame colors. These things will never go out of style. Scooping them up for 30% off isn’t a bad idea. —Mike DeStefano
