Minimalist Sneakers from Common Projects
Save 30%:Since its inception in 2004, New York-based footwear brand Common Projects has become something of a cult favorite. The brand makes luxe versions of classic sneaker silhouettes, using premium materials and Italian craftsmanship. While the brand isn’t as hard to come by as it once was, it’s rare to find substantial markdowns on any of its styles.

But, today is one of those rare occasions. If you head over to Need Supply Co., you can save 30 percent on a few different pairs of shoes and boots from Common Projects. The understated styles are available in a range of sizes and prices start at $297 — that’s almost unheard of for this brand. — John Zientek

Addaday Softy Plus Foam Roller Sale
Save 60%+:The Addaday softy plus foam roller is the lowest price we’ve seen on a roller this soft. Typically, it’s $30, and today it’s down to just $9. Foam rollers help warm up your muscles before a workout, as well as stretch them out post-sweat. Having one in your apartment, home gym or office is always a good idea. It helps promote mobility, which keeps your muscles and joints performing at their peak, so activities of daily living (sitting, walking, eating, standing) remain as easy as they are right now for the rest of your life.

Foam rollers typically have a bad rap for being super tough, and thus hard on your muscles, but this soft one is a good place to start. And once you’ve worked your way up, you can always check out a vibrating one (albeit way more pricey). Whether you’ve upped your weekly workouts, or are just starting a new routine, adding this $9 foam roller to your warm up and cool down is the best idea you can have. — Meg Lappe

All-Clad 10-Piece Set
Save $205: What’s the difference between quality stainless steel cookware and cheap stainless steel cookware? In short, even heating, balanced weight, strong warranty programs, reputation and durability. The downside, of course, is cost.

Today on Amazon, the most-respected stainless steel cookware in the world is on sale — in bulk. All-Clad’s ten-piece collection of stainless is marked down from $700 to $495. The set includes a sauté pan, two fry pans, a stock pot and two saucepans. This is as inexpensive as the full kit of All-Clad has been on Amazon. — Will Price

Timex Acadia Field Watch
Save 40%: The Timex Acadia, a model based on a reference from the ’90s, features a 40mm black resin case, quartz movement with date function, black dial with 24-hour scale and 50m of water resistance. With its matching black 20mm NATO strap and military-inspired looks, the Acadia is perfect for the outdoors, and right now, its on sale for 40% off its list price of $85, for a final sale price of just $51. — Oren Hartov

Dyson Products on Ebay
Save Up to 60%: If you’ve ever wanted a Dyson vacuum, air purifier, hair dryer or lamp, now is a good time to strike. Ebay’s Pre-Summer Dyson sale event cuts prices back 20 percent, even on products that were already discounted.

Unsurprisingly, the best deals are on past generation Dyson products. Luckily, older Dyson products aren’t completely worthless. For vacuums, look to the cordless V8 or the classic upright MultiFloor model. HEPA-certified air purifier and fan combo machines are also discounted significantly. Use code PRESUMMER for the extra 20 percent off. — Will Price

Lawson Hammock Blue Ridge Hybrid Camping Hammock
Save 21%: During the warm summer months, we’re more than happy to trade out our tents to sleep in a hammock. But we also understand the misgivings held by hammock initiates — a primary one being that they leave you exposed to weather and insects. Our rebuttal: not all hammocks do; take Lawson Hammock’s Blue Ridge Camping Hammock, which is currently 20 percent off at Huckberry, as exemplar.

It’s best to understand the Blue Ridge as a hammock-tent hybrid. Using collapsible aluminum poles and a line that acts as a central beam, the Blue Ridge has an interior space that’s fully enclosed by mesh, and it comes with a rain fly for use in rough weather. More than that, it uses spreader bars on both ends to create a flatter sleeping surface than other ultralight camping hammocks that envelope sleepers in a cocoon. (Pro tip: you can prevent your body from contorting into a banana shape by lying diagonally in a hammock.) When there are no trees in sight, you can also set up the Blue Ridge on the ground, just as you would a regular tent.

Additionally, Kammok’s Roo Double, a more classic style of camping hammock, is also 37 percent off at Huckberry too. — Tanner Bowden
