Bonobos
If you have trouble finding pants that fit well, you’re not alone — lots of guys do. You’d think the men’s clothing companies would have addressed this problem by now and made some pants that actually fit comfortably and look good.
Well, one has: Bonobos.
Bonobos has figured out how to design pants that actually fit your butt instead of drooping. Now, instead of wearing inexpensive pants cut for “the masses,” get khakis, chinos, and other styles that are tailored to fit a man’s body.
This is especially good for guys who have to wear something besides jeans to work every day. Bonobos also carries men’s suits and shirts.
Bonobos makes it easy to shop online, with FREE shipping both ways and convenient returns. They know that you may have to try a couple of their pairs of pants on before you find your ideal fit. But once you do find the fit that suits you, you may have to start telling women, “Hey, my eyes are up here.”
Give Bonobos a try.
Click here to get $10 off your first $100 purchase at Bonobos (new customers only) using coupon code “Betterfit10C” at checkout.

You’ve been thinking that this is the year you want to start voting with your retail dollars for environmentally-responsible companies. But you don’t know the best places to shop for “green” products. Wonder no more, because Best Stuff for Men can help you shop greener, too. For example, check out…
BuyGreen.com
BuyGreen has a huge selection of eco-friendly products for your home and business. And they’ll tell you why a particular product is green.
When you want to buy products that are better not only for you and your family but for the planet, shop at BuyGreen. In addition to a wide variety of products sold with friendly, competent customer service, BuyGreen.com donates 1% of their sales income to environmental causes through One Percent for the Planet, and they’re approved by Green America.

Kohl’s
I’ve been saying for awhile that “Kohl’s is the new Gap.” Remember when The Gap carried basic yet well-made, trendy clothing for good prices? Maybe you don’t, because that was a fairly long time ago. Maybe you’ve never even been to The Gap, because they haven’t been cool for several years now. Since about 2004, the quality of their merchandise has declined noticeably. But Kohl’s Department Stores has stepped into that gap. Kohl’s offers well-made, reasonably-priced clothing. Their pricing is a distinct strength — they probably offer the best combination of price-to-quality of any major department store, especially online. They are the right store at the right economic time.
They also carry a wider selection of products than The Gap ever did, from clothing to housewares. Give Kohl’s a try.

CHEFS is one of the most venerable and respected kitchen supply businesses online. But they weren’t always online — in fact, in 1979, when they began, they were called “Chef’s Catalog” because they sold goods for the kitchen through catalogs. (Which they still do.) Fortunately, you don’t have to use the catalog because you have a computer and can look at their thousands of great items they have for cooks by clicking the links right here. And now, you can get $25 off orders of $200, plus free shipping until May 30, 2012. Cook something!

What Manhattanite is for women, Need Supply is for men (well, and women, too).
If you haven’t heard of it, Need Supply carries probably the most comprehensive selection of men’s clothing and accessories in Richmond, Virginia — a laid-back yet cosmopolitan city on the banks of the James River, and the capital of the state. Guys who shop there are happy with the store and, if anything, the Need Supply website is even cooler and has a larger selection than the physical store. Click here or on the images below to check it out — they feature a large assortment of contemporary designers and styles from both the U.S. and abroad. If you can’t find something you’d like to wear or use at Need Supply, then you don’t care about clothes (not that there’s anything wrong with that). Just take a look at this excellent retail outlet…

–> How to Use An Online Coupon or Promo Code to Save Money:
Many of the discounts and good deals offered here (such as percent off, free shipping, etc.) are based on the use of a coupon or promotional code (promo code). If you’re not familiar with them, here’s how to use these codes…
- Take note of the coupon code in the listing for the company or the deal on this “Good Deals and Outlets” page. Click on the link provided (text link or banner link) to go to the company’s website. (Sometimes you’ll get the discount simply by clicking on the special link provided here. In that case, the company’s website will inform you that your coupon has been automatically applied. For example, BuyCostumes sometimes does this.)
- Shop for what you want and put it in the site’s shopping cart or basket. (Note that sometimes a deal is contingent on spending a certain minimum amount on your order.)
- When you’re done shopping and have selected all the items you want to buy, begin the “Checkout” process.
- During the Checkout process, which may involve several successive screens where you enter data such as shipping address and credit card info, look for a field/box that is labeled “Enter coupon code” or something similar. Enter the coupon code or promo code in the box (sometimes you will need to click a button such as “Apply coupon”). Be aware that oftentimes the code will be case sensitive, so enter it correctly.
- In the order tally provided by the merchant, check to make sure that the coupon has been applied — that the price has been discounted, or shipping charges eliminated, etc.
- After applying the coupon, complete the Checkout process.
- Smile, because you’ve just saved some significant dollars (and I’ll bet you didn’t have to pay sales tax, either).

They carry Wusthof knife sets for your kitchen. They have luggage. They have men’s suits. And a lot more. All for great prices, with excellent customer service.

Shopping Green
Much is made these days of shopping “green.” This means buying products that are more environmentally friendly than standard products — products that are produced in “sustainable” ways that pollute less or don’t pollute at all, products that will biodegrade easily after they’re thrown away, products that pollute less or not at all when you use them, products that are easily recycled.
As you might imagine, it is not always easy to mass-produce products like this — especially when so much of our manufacturing is set up to minimize costs — which often means making a product in the cheapest, dirtiest way. But more and more, companies are recognizing that making a product with environmental factors in mind leads to greater efficiencies throughout the life-cycle of the product — from the moment it is designed until it is worn out. Companies are discovering they can actually improve their bottom line by being greener in every phase of designing and manufacturing what they sell. And these products often perform in a superior way (for example, think of products that are Energy Star qualified).
You can “vote” for companies like these, and support products like these, with your dollars. Every time you buy a product that is more sustainably-produced, you tilt the marketplace a little more toward keeping our planet clean and livable. You help ensure that your grandchildren will get to enjoy a more pristine, healthy world. Check for the “green” description in the companies mentioned on this page and throughout this site — companies such as Buygreen.com, Bambeco, Patagonia, PlanetShoes, and National Geographic. Look for the term “eco-friendly.”
