The Choosy Beggar stopped by the Diesel sample sale for first dibs on menswear, but wasn't overly impressed with what he found. His perspective: "Maybe it’s just where our head is, but the few wearable pieces we found only seemed suitable for lazy days watching the waves in Montauk — or Disneyland, but definitely not NYC." He did find one city acceptable blue and brown large-checked short-sleeve button down though and the prices are nice. T-shirts are $15, button-downs are $20, sneakers are $25, jackets are $40, denim is $45 and leather shoes are $50. [The Choosy Beggar; Previously]
