Prime Big Deal Days
What the Valet. Team Is Actually Buying
We know that these Amazon Prime events can be a lot. It's not even a day—now it's two days, and a couple times a year. But that's not to say, it's not a good time to buy. Our team is just like you, scouring Amazon to see what deals we can find. But we're also in the business of sharing those items with you. Here is what the Valet. editors—from our co-founders to our contributing editors—have picked up so far. It's a combination of splurges, staples and items that we will be giving as gifts this holiday season. After all, the smart thing is to buy early and never pay full retail price, right?

Drops to |
 | Stüssy and Converse are regular collaborators, but their latest shoe has a lot of people talking. It features a snake-inspired design with faux reptile skin covering the entire upper of the high-top Chuck Taylor. Even Converse’s All-Star branding is obscured by the scaly stuff (although, Stüssy’s star-shaped logo does appear, embroidered onto the outside). Available Oct. 11 at Stüssy |
