The 10 essential items in our Prime Day carts
Are you sick of Amazon’s Prime Day yet? We're knee-deep over here, but that's just an occupational hazard, I guess—we're a bunch of hyperaware consumers here at Valet. Yes, this sale seems to be everywhere, but there's no denying that there are some genuinely great deals to be had. You just don't want to buy something simply because it's marked down. That's not smart. There are, however, some essential items that we believe won't result in any buyer's remorse. That's what we're talking about today. Here's what we're really buying (or what we've already bought and tried), both from Amazon and at other retailers offering worthy discounts.
No closet is complete without a classic pair of 501s. Buy them raw and break them in yourself. Especially when you can get them half off, there's no further explanation needed—these are just some really good jeans.

I'm currently using this while I'm traveling, and it's the perfect size to tackle a couple pieces at a time. Just fill-up the base with water, start steaming (you get about 10-15 minutes of substantial steam). Just don't forget to clean the bristles after it cools down.

These are the only socks I'll wear. They're cushy, durable and I love the length—the fact that there are no logos feels like a bonus. Stock up and refresh your sock drawer now that they're nearly half off.
