Mallorca-based footwear maker Meermin is already known for offering some of the best value in the game when it comes to properly constructed footwear, but it’s taking affordability to new levels with its Black Friday sale.
In old-school Black Friday style, Meermin’s limited-time sale will start at midnight on 28 November 2024 and offer unmissable discounts of up to 50% off. That’s up to half price on a diverse roster of top-quality Goodyear welted footwear. From derbies to dress shoes, chukkas to Chelseas, loafers to lug-soled boots — Meermin does it all and does it well.
You’ve probably been faced with a bunch of discounted footwear in the past week, but have you seen a horsebit loafer as nice as the Meermin 514633 for $150? The last offers a shapely, more refined silhouette than others on the market but they’re still sleek enough to be dressed down with raw denim jeans and a quality sweater for a timeless 60s look. For something more rugged, 516211 Ultraflex Boot in Black Calf which was a complete steal at $260, let alone at $130.
Whatever pair(s) you choose, you’ll get value that doesn’t come around often.

Fade Friday – The Flat Head 6000W (2 Years, 3 Washes, 2 Soaks)

Raw denim can easily become your second skin, and that’s exactly what happened with Mi and his The Flat Head 6000W denim jacket. Hailing from Ontario, Mi has worn his TFH Jacket whilst traveling all over the world, from Mexico to Japan and beyond. The results are some admirable fades, worthy of this week’s Fade Friday segment.
Two years of daily wear has led to a heavily faded jacket that really has that “lived-in” feel. The elbow honeycombs are the star of the show, but the patches and adornments Mi has added imbue even more character and give us insight into Mi’s personality. The back of the elbows have blown out even more since being repaired, so will need some further attention if Mi is to keep his jacket going. We certainly hope he can, but it looks badass regardless.
The Flat Head 6000W Raw Denim Jacket
Fabric: 100% cotton selvedge denim
Fabric weight: 14.5 o.z.
Fabric source: Japan
Made in: Japan
Additional Details:
Leather patch
Branded rivets
Available at: Redcast Heritage for $287 (renamed to “14.5 oz.Type II 50’s Denim Jacket after The Flat Head’s hiatus)

I don’t care if you miss the beach, it’s slipper season and I’m kicking it in Kyrgies. I vowed to never divorce my beloved Yankees slippers but 100% wool slippers are where it’s at. If you want to join me in felt-foot heaven, Kyrgies has a range of Black Friday offers to make your purchase even more worthwhile.
Based in Kyrgyzstan, Kyrgies crafts high-quality slippers from mulesing-free 100% felted wool and a range of other natural materials. With sustainability at the core of its identity, Kyrgies is committed to low-impact manufacturing practices and has been a member of 1% For the Planet since its inception. Every single gram of the brand’s highly textured Kyrgyz wool is used with any spare scraps going towards the production of other slippers or other products.
Not only are Kyrgies comfortable and sustainable – they look great, too. Whether you’re buying for yourself, a loved one, or both, Kyrgies has the following offers running for Black Friday:
Spend $100 – get a free pair of insoles
Spend $150 – get a free set of Coasters or a second pair of insoles
Spend $200 – get a free Bifold Wallet or third pair of insoles
Spend $250 – get a free pair of Wool Slides or a fourth pair of insoles
Each pair of Kyrgies comes with 100% felted wool insoles, but an additional pair can be used to snug up the fit of your slips or increase the longevity of the footbed. If you’re someone who likes thin socks or has a low-profile foot, additional insoles will be a great idea. Both the Coaster Set and Bifold Wallet on offer are also made with felted Kyrgyz wool, the Wallet (worth $50) being paired with vegetable-tanned leather.
Whatever deal you take advantage of, you’ll end up with a pair of solid wool slippers, and then some.

Wax on, wax off. Grant Stone is offering boot heads a tantalizing New Year’s patina project with its Garrison Waxed Burro Boots.
Seriously, the white wax coating on this vegetable-tanned leather from Conceria Walpier in Italy will chip away and scratch with each wear. So unlike your denim where 6 months pass and you realize you have started carving fades in, these will look different week by week, evolving from dirty white to a warm, honey-like color. This leather pairs perfectly with Grant Stone’s Garrison boot, which features a capped toe with ornate broguing that will mop up that glorious patina.
This release exhibits the kind of innovation we like to see from forward-thinking welted footwear brands like Grant Stone. What we’d also like to see is your pair of these in a year or so. Considering the character of this leather, we can almost guarantee a spot on our Fade Friday column.
Each pair is made by skilled craftspeople on Xiamen Island, China, using Goodyear welt construction that allows them to be re-soled whenever necessary. Details include a 270º flat welt with heel rand, full-grain kip leather lining, polished brass eyelets, vegetable-tanned leather insole, and steel shank — all sat upon a black micro stud rubber sole.
Available for $425 from Grant Stone.
