Spiritually speaking, Monday doesn't feel like a typical day for wish-fulfillment. So consider this Monday the exception to the rule—as of this morning, the SSENSE sale is officially live, and it boasts more discounts than an exceedingly generous genie could ever grant.

To answer your next question(s), yes, the SSENSE sale is good. And yes, it involves a preposterous amount of current-season bangers (in addition to plenty of past-season holdovers), all up to 50% off. Whether you need a weirdo suit to conquer the spring wedding circuit, a light jacket to help you make the most of light jacket season, or are just itching for an afternoon pick-me-up stronger than cold brew, you and your various needs are very much covered.

As always, though, it can all get a bit overwhelming, so your friendly neighborhood GQ editors sifted through the whole lot of it and cherry-picked our immediate favorites. Check ‘em out below, or head on over to SSENSE to kill an hour or two browsing the full assortment.
