Keds Royal Lo Suede Sneakers
Save 79%: Now at Nordstrom Rack, you can pick up a pair of Pro-Keds Royal Lo suede sneakers for just $20. Currently marked down 79 percent, the tonal tan kicks feature a round top cap, a removable insole and a rubber grip sole. Other minimalist leather sneakers go for at least ten times this amount, so don’t wait long — sizes are limited. — John Zientek
Instant Pot’s Most Powerful Model Is 33% Off Right Now
Save 33%: Instant Pot helped ignite a passion for pressure cooking and the brand’s appliances — which function as a pressure cooker, slow cooker, yogurt maker, steamer and rice cooker — have a cult-like following amongst home chefs. But for those who have been sheepish about adopting the brand’s devices, Instant Pot’s most powerful model, the Ultra, has just gotten a massive 33 percent markdown. In addition to its pre-set functions, its “ULTRA” function allows users to granularly adjust temperature, cooking time and pressurization, adding to its utility (and even turning it into a sous vide circulator). Those familiar with previous Instant Pot models will appreciate the integration of an elevation sensor, which automatically adjusts pressure and cooking time according to altitude, and a progress indicator that keeps tabs on food during the cooking process.
Arc’teryx A2B Commuter Hardshell Jacket
Save 30%: A sudden downpour shouldn’t turn you off from your morning cycle commute nor should to tempt you into getting decked out in pro-level all-weather gear. The Arc’teryx A2B Commuter Hardshell Jacket lands in a happy middle ground that blocks out the wind and seals out rain and still lets you walk into the office with a casual style. The N40p-X GORE-TEX fabric with 3L tricot does the bulk of the wind-and weatherproofing with a little extra help from a DWR finish on the outer shell. The integrated Stormhood, reflective panels and a fit specifically designed for cycling, bring even more commuter friendly performance to the table. — Bryan Campbell
