The Best 2020 Black Friday and Cyber Monday Menswear Discounts, Coupons and Deals

Here’s my list of the best deals on men’s clothing, footwear and more during Black Friday 2020.

Featured Black Friday 2020 deals

I wouldn’t list a brand in this roundup if I didn’t admire it but this list has grown pretty long over the years.  To start, I broke out a shorter list of featured deals that I’m particularly excited about from brands with which I have had a personal, positive experience.

How Black Friday and Holiday Shopping are Changing in 2020 Due to COVID-19

Black Friday 2020 isn’t canceled, but sales are looking look much different from previous years because of the coronavirus pandemic.

“Black Friday” sales started in October

Amazon arguably already kicked off the 2020 holiday shopping season with its long-delayed Amazon Prime Day extravaganza. Amazon held Prime Day 2020 on October 13-14, featuring deep discounts on Amazon Prime Fashion brands for men and women as well as electronics and more.

Many other major retailers already announced that they will begin offering deep, Black Friday-quality discounts beginning in October or early November:

• Clothing retailers including Madewell and Lands End launched Black Friday deals in October.
• Walmart announced that it will stretch out Black Friday sales over three separate events in November. Walmart’s first Black Friday event will take place starting at 7PM on November 4 online at Walmart.com, with more sales and deals rolling out online and in store in November 7.
• Target announced that it would begin its Black Friday Deals in October, “stretching out the savings.” In a statement, Target noted that, “Let’s face it: Historically, deal hunting and holiday shopping can mean crowded events, and this isn’t a year for crowds.”
• Home Depot announced that it would start its holiday sales in October in an effort to “reinvent” Black Friday and remove anxiety and hassle for customers worried about the Coronavirus.

Smaller, innovative fashion startups and small businesses followed suit, advertising their lowest prices of the year and jumping on “early Black Friday” sales earlier in November.

The COVID-19 pandemic has hit many small businesses in the fashion industry hard, and companies have been rolling out pretty spectacular discounts just to stay afloat.

“Retailers will be desperate to get rid of seven months of leftover merchandise in two months,” Burt Flickinger III, founder of Strategic Resource Group, told Newsday in October.

Most stores will be closed on Thanksgiving

Starting over the summer, many big-box retailers indicated they would close their stores on Thanksgiving Day, reversing a trend that had come to see many employees having to work instead of enjoying dinner with their families. Target, Walmart, Best Buy and Dicks Sporting Goods are among the retailers who have announced that their stores will be closed on Thanksgiving.

Expect dramatically fewer doorbusters and in-store only deals

I can’t imagine stores will be offering limited-quantity doorbusters and in-store only deals that would require shoppers to line up and crowd into stores during a pandemic. Think of the publicity.

Instead, I would expect many more online-only deals, some of which may be time-limited to days or hours, a-la-Amazon’s Goldbox Daily Deals.
