If you’d have told us six months ago that the Percival sale would inadvertently allow us to dress like Dwayne Johnson, David Beckham, and Michael B. Jordan for as little as $100, we’d have spat out our lattes, laughed, and then immediately got to work on a mood board. But now? It’s all true. Thanks to the UK-based brand’s latest sale, your dreams of gearing up like the brightest star in the Hollywood orbit look a lot more attainable.
Percival built its reputation on subversive, tongue-in-cheek riffs on elegant menswear, so it’s little surprise that the brand has racked up more A-list credits than a Wes Anderson flick. What is surprising, though, is just how openly Percival has embraced discount season. Its mid-season sale boasts discounts of up to 50% off its most iconic wares, from Paul Mescal’s Academy-ready cable-knit polo to Chris Evans’ premiere-pounding Impressionist knit.
Inventory, however, can only last so long. So we whittled down the selection to the absolute best of what the Percival sale has to offer across six key categories—knit polos, summer-ready shirts, trench coats, tees, lightweight layers, and tailoring—to minimize time spent scrolling and maximize your chances of bagging a steal. Good luck, godspeed, and may the size runs be ever in your favor.
Four Instant-Cops From Percival’s Blowout Sale
A-List-Approved Polos
Oh, Percival’s knit polo shirts. Let us count the ways we love the jacquard knit and sartorial glory of thee. The misquoting of the Bard to one side, Percival’s knit polo collection has become infamous for good reason. Having dressed the bulging silhouette of The Rock, walked with Paul Mescal across Cartier’s red carpets, and even proven that Jon Snow (or Kit Harington, more specifically), in fact, knows everything, Percival’s polos have strode the depth and breadth of celebrity menswear. And, dear reader, it looks as though you’re next.
Summer-Ready Shirts
Floaty bowling shirts with wide-spread collars, the camp-collar shirt is no longer just reserved for Swingers and New Jersey mobsters, you know. The spread shape of the style—which has become a big hit in the spring and summer wardrobes of men young and old over the past few years—is a popular one among Percival’s online offering and, luckily for us, the sale rail, too.
Unbeatable Trench Coats
Polo shirts to one side, the almighty Sherlock trench might be one of Percival’s most-adored pieces and it’s not hard to see why. Keeping its silhouette simple with a straight line of single-breasted buttons and a clean, mod-like shape, the Sherlock might be named after the famed character that first brought Benedict Cumberbatch to our screens, but you don’t need masterful deduction skills to know that this is a piece worth adding to your basket.
Cheeky Tees
But, alas, you’re going to need something to layer underneath those good ol’ workshirts and polos, aren’t you? Enter: the humble T-shirt. The most foundational of wardrobe basics, we doubt that the T-shirt needs the hard sell, so we’ll take this opportunity to sit back, relax, and let Percival’s embroidered options speak for themselves.
Lightweight Layers
Another of Mr Harington’s favorites, Percival’s sharp workshirts are also among its most popular pieces. From traditionally utilitarian styles to those with a sophisticated verve, the Percival sale offering caters to a range of colour palette preferences. But a personal GQ favorite? That goes to the woollen houndstooth iteration.
Impeccable Tailoring
Percival’s laidback approach to traditional menswear doesn’t stop at casualwear. Home to a number of dapper blazers and smart trousers as well as their celeb-adored linen suiting, the oft-louche menswear brand has proven itself more than capable of turning on the tailored charm when the time calls. Dubious? See for yourself.
