High quality black friday pants to Germany

November 27, 2013 2:02 AM

Where's this black friday online deal: 1. high quality pants (really nice chinos/khaki pants/like Bonobos - i.e. a bit hip/in fancy colors) 2. at around $25-50 3. that ship to Germany? Recommendations for brands that match the style and price are fine (I'd find out about the shipping..).

The easiest thing to do is to just shop on a German/EU site. Can you read German / navigate German sites with the help of Google Translate?

In any case, your first stop should be have a look at the EU site for Banana Republic (in English); the men's trouser section has a few options that meet your requirements. Easy cheap shipping for Germany.

Zalando will have some Black Friday deals, probably Asos too. Both sell a large number of brands.
You could also consider Esprit, either online or in one of their stores. These chinos cost 59,99 euros, shipping will cost 0,95 euro.

Coincidentally, just saw this piece on Nightly Business Report last night (U.S. public television business news show) that talked about how retailers are trying to export the "Black Friday" concept globally, including to countries that don't do Thanksgiving, which is a little odd. Why are all the sales today?

Anyway, they mentioned a company called borderfree that helps major American retailers do business with foreign customers - they translate the web sites and prices into local languages and currency, and help process orders and get them across various borders.

I have no idea what this does to the price of a pair of pants, or whether this will solve your problem, but it's worth a look.
