The Best Stuff From SSENSE's Massive Black Friday Sale

Sorry to burst your bubble, bucko, but we’re now in the final act of Black Friday shopping. Yes, the deals are still bubbling, but we both know that you may need to upgrade some stuff in your warm-weather closet before December rolls around. Thankfully, SSENSE, one of the most epic designer fashion and streetwear slingers in the game, is still in the throes of its ridiculously huge winter (aka Black Friday) sale, with deals of up to 50% off on the dopest designer goods, from Carhartt W.I.P. and Versace, to Levi’s, Diesel, and so many more iconic brands it wouldn’t be a good use of our time to list them here—just go to SSENSE’s site already. 

There are hundreds upon hundreds of pages to indulge in across the women’s and men’s sale, and we know you’re a busy bee—that’s why we rolled up our sleeves to do the sleuthing for you. We’ve emerged with everything from vibey sneakers and the perfect bodega-run shorts to sexy designer plates and other highly unique home wares. So, crack your fingers, moisten up that credit card, and let’s get you the best bling for your buck at the SSENSE’s big winter sale. 

Ever since Carhartt was founded 133 years ago, it has never ceased to slap with its über-durable denim, jackets, beanies, and more skatepark-friendly wares. And the brand’s high-fashion sub-label, Carhartt W.I.P. gets to have even more fun toying with its traditional workwear materials and silhouettes. Grab this cozy signature-brown jacket for 52% off, or score some comfy black trousers for 46% off.

Another great find in SSENSE’s sale section: this versatile Jacquemus button-up for 45% off—it’s the perfect top to wear to the bar, the bodega, or a wedding.

There are the Dude-worthy Versace shades, Stone Island sweats, puffers from The North Face, and much more.

Another excellent find for the Deadhead in your life: this pair of anthropomorphic shroom dude earrings by Marni which is 53% off right now.

A pair of all-season shorts is a must, from retro athletic micro-shorts to this organic cotton fleece pair from Adidas for 30% off—they’ll look great with a few gold chains and a Cameron Poe-esque white tank top.  

Can’t go wrong with classic Levi’s 501s for $48.

The sneaker sale section has choice finds like these classic white Reeboks.

Let’s start off with these bangers: an op-art polka dot Jean Paul Gaultier top and a futuristic Diesel tube top, both for under $200.

Cool-kid designers like Bode and Acne Studios are on serious, sale, too, so save hundreds on this sheer blouse and a cropped, semi-sheer mohair-blend sweater.

Need a new fall jacket? We’re head-over-heels for this faux-leather Staud and cropped Ganni leopard jacket.

There’s loads of hot-girl brand Miaou in the sale section, including corsets, going-out tops, and Y2K-inspired pants, but this sheer long-sleeve really caught our eye for a warm-weather-to-cold-weather pick. Similarly, the brand’s dragon-embellished skirt would look great with a black turtleneck.

Top pants selects: Agolde’s stovepipe-style Lana jeans; Ganni’s cargo pants; Levi’s ribcage jeans in a classic blue wash; Stüssy’s ultra-comfy beach trousers.

Tons of handbags have massive markdowns, from tons of brands including Diesel, A.P.C., and Praying.

A Vivienne Westwood cardigan for year-round sexiness, for under $300? Legendary. The late designer’s classic, coveted orb jewelry is even on sale for under $200.

If you’ve been mustering up the confidence to wear leather pants but you’ve been waiting for the right pair to come along, this is your sign, baby. Hot denim brand du jour AGOLDE makes these perfect, high-waisted, straight-leg, waist-snatching recycled leather trousers, and they’re 45% off right now.

The deals on women’s footwear are wild, but two highlights include these huge discounts on Doc Marten’s iconic boots and the Japanese brand Togo Pulla’s blinged-out slip-ons.

Score a sick, streetwear-forward Carhartt WIP collar and leash set for under 40 bucks, or treat your best (quadrupedal) friend to a slick army-green rain jacket from Sunnei for 36% off.

Been eyeing a Theragun? Several models from Therabody are on sale right now at SSENSE. Always dropping your AirPods on the subway platform? Please, friend, no—keep them safe in this pebbled leather Thom Browne case.

Aarke’s carbonators are like if Tesla made Sodastreams—just ask our food and cooking expert writer Adam Rothbarth, who recently reviewed the Carbonator Pro. This black chrome version of the third-gen carbonator is, undoubtedly, as sexy as any countertop appliance gets.

Classic SSENSE vibes: this sexy “Sex” catchall.

These candles have transcended their waxy exoskeletons to become conversation pieces for your home or party tablescape. The Black Shadow candle by Hannah Jewett is 36% off and perfectly enyacore. Sunnei’s Yellow BBPR candle is also 36% off, and would be the perfect gift for the architecture or design buff in your life. It’s the spitting image of the Torre Velasca.

Now go forth, and be the most intriguing person at the holiday party this year—you’ve got the jawns to prove it.
