According to an announcement distributed yesterday, Gilt Man will open on October 19. It remains to be seen what the new site will offer, but the below message from Gilt Groupe. sheds some light. To pre-register for the new site (for free), click here.

Moving in to your own place is a big moment in any guy's life, so we're pretty fired up to invite you to the roof-raising we'll be having next week.

On October 19, you'll find a new store on the site called Gilt Man. Our expanded digs will allow us to offer more of everything you already like about the site: more sales, more gear and even more brands — like Helly Hansen's outerwear and S.T. Dupont's legendary lighters.

We've also been at work streamlining your shopping experience with a newly designed navigation bar and a single shopping cart and checkout across all our sites. We even have a more visible sales calendar now, so you can find your favorite sales ahead of time.

Of course, we're still offering the best discounts around, up to 70% off original price. So stop by on the 19th. You're gonna love the new setup.

See you there,

Gilt Groupe
