You can rely on Ssense to deliver discounts on thousands of items — designer and otherwise — during its various sales during the year. But the end-of-year sale is especially enticing as a twofer: You can shop for yourself and also get a head start on holiday gift shopping for your loved ones. (Ssense is marketing it as a winter sale, but we feel comfortable calling it a Black Friday situation.) Below, I’ve rounded up some my favorite deals for men, women, kids, and the home, from brands including Marc Jacobs, A.P.C., Carhartt, Flore Flore, and more. One note: Sizing can be limited, but I did my best to find items that had a pretty large range of sizes left. For more early Black Friday deals in every category, check out our hub here.
These actually cute platform-fisherman-sandal-Crocs are half off.
You can find Repettos under $200, but sizing will be limited.
I love the retro vibe of this large Isabel Marant tote that can be used for work, the beach, or a grocery trip.
The ubiquitous Marc Jacobs tote is also on sale.
Grab Ganni’s buckle ballet flats for nearly half off.
A cozy mohair scarf from Marni that you can wear all winter.
Tons of MNZ’s Olympia wedges in various colors are on sale, including this beige patent pair. (You can also get them in black, brown suede, and green.)
A lot of A.P.C. is discounted, too, including several pieces from Katie Holmes’s collaboration with the brand.
A bunch of Baserange’s serged-seam shirts are discounted, too.
I’m tempted to hop on the Flore Flore bandwagon with this pink long-sleeve shirt.
A ton of Skims is also on sale, like this short bodysuit you can use as a layering piece.
For men, these raw-denim A.P.C. jeans are 25 percent off.
This chore coat from Carhartt’s Work in Progress line is a nice alternative to the blue this style of jacket typically comes in.
This is a good deal on Common Projects, which makes some of our favorite white sneakers for men.
The discount isn’t huge, but these sweats by our best-in-class brand in that category, Reigning Champ, is under $100.
Ssense’s home sale is another treasure trove. I own a larger version of this knot pillow, and it’s a true delight to behold (my kids also love pretending it’s a snake).
This ashtray from Seth Rogen’s cannabis company would make a great gift.
A handsome towel set from Tekla, one of my favorite textile brands.
The kids’ sale is also quite compelling. While most of the offerings from Misha and Puff have been picked over, you can still get this organic cotton hat for 65 percent off.
We’ve long been fans of Marni’s kids’ totes, which could easily work for adults, too.
