When you woke up this morning, belly full of turkey and fingers coated with gravy, you probably didn’t boot up your computer and immediately Google “Gap Black Friday sale”. We get it. Even while its Claire’s-adjacent neighbors—the Abercrombies, Banana Republics, and J.Crews of the world—have made a concerted effort to court the menswear crowd with thrilling overhauls and flash-in-the-pan collaborations, Gap, well…you see where we’re going here. Except that’s not quite true—and it sure as hell doesn’t do the OG mall brand justice.

Unlike you, we did roll out of bed curious what Gap (there’s no “the”, FYI) had in store for us on this most cursed of capitalist holidays, largely because the 54-year-old retailer has been quietly working to transform its menswear, too. And it shows! Looking for a faux-leather bomber so slick you’ll swear it’s the real stuff? The Gap Black Friday sale has it—for over 50% off. How about a perfectly cropped work jacket done up in a hardy wool blend? Also accounted for, also half off. Ditto the legendary khakis Gap spun into marketing gold in the ‘90s, and the throwback jeans Gap founders Doris and Donald Fisher made their name hawking to freewheeling San Fransisco hippies.
Frankly, we’re not the least bit surprised—but we figured you might be, so we gathered the absolute best buys from the retailer’s ongoing Black Friday shebang and aggregated all of ’em right here.
