J.Crew's Tall Denim Promotion Ended and the Clearance Held

J.Crew's 40% off denim rate expired this week, sending the tall slim-wide jean and the Charley kickout back to the full $148. Every clearance price in the tall range held, including the Stratus satin pant at $50 and the Gramercy empire-waist dress at $70.

More tall styles were available this week than last, with fall skirts, trousers and dresses filling in behind the summer pieces.

Our J.Crew tall fit guide explains how their tall sizing runs.

The clearance did not move at all

J.Crew clearance prices end in 99 cents, which makes them easy to spot.

Tall Stratus pant in textured satin · $50 (was $148), 65% off, tall S to XXL, Black

The best thing on sale in the tall range at J.Crew. Black is the only colorway at $50 and it carries S through XXL, which is a complete run. The same pant in Ivory, Spring Rain and Toasted Paprika is $70, Blushed Peach is $80, Navy is $90 and Burgundy is $100, and most of those are down to one or two sizes. One J.Crew page covers every color of a style, so check that the color you want is the one carrying the price.

Tall empire-waist mini dress in Gramercy linen blend · $70 (was $198), 65% off, tall 2 to 20, Black

Tall empire-waist mini dress in Gramercy linen blend

Nearly the full 2 to 20 range in Black, with size 6 missing. Rich Cerulean is the same $70 in a shorter run from 8 to 20.

Tall Rori pant in lemon print · $90 (was $168), 45% off, tall 0 to 16, Black Multi

Tall Rori pant in lemon print

A full-length wide-leg pant with the complete 0 to 16 run.

Tall Charley kickout cropped jean · $90 (was $148), 40% off, tall 25 to 32, Rinse Wash

Worth reading carefully, because J.Crew lists this jean twice under the same name. This one is the curvy cut, it is a clearance price rather than a promotional one, and it is $90 with the complete waist run. Both are cropped by design, so plan on a length that ends at the ankle.

Tall cropped Stratus pant in block print · $39 (was $148), 75% off, Faded Black

The deepest discount in the tall range and the cheapest tall pant J.Crew is selling. The name is accurate about the length, so treat this as a cropped wide-leg. The Yellow Multi colorway on the same page is $133, which is the gap a single style can carry between two colors.

New to the tall range this week

Tall midi crinkle skirt · $60 (was $188), 70% off, tall 2 to 16, White

The best new arrival, with the complete 2 to 16 run at a clearance price.

Tall open-back dress in cocoa block print · $80 (was $248), 70% off, tall 12 to 20, Smoked Walnut

The size run starts at 12 on this one.

Tall Rori pant in stripe · $90 (was $168), 45% off, tall 0 to 16, Ivory Melon Zest

The striped version of the Rori pant above, at the same price with the same complete run.

Tall Charley kickout cropped jean · $100 (was $148), 30% off, tall 25 to 34, Midnight Wash

The widest waist run on any J.Crew tall jean this week, reaching 34.

Tall slim-wide jean · $80 (was $148), 45% off, tall 33 and 34 only, Black Rinse

The cheapest tall slim-wide jean, available in the two largest waists.

What to do about it

The lesson this week is one you can use at the register. A J.Crew tall price ending in 50 cents is a percentage taken off the list price for a limited run, so buy within a few days. A price ending in 99 cents is clearance, and it lasts until your size runs out.

Those four are the ones to act on.

For denim, wait. The 40% rate on the slim-wide and the Charley ran for one week, and J.Crew has brought it back before. Buying either at the full $148 this week would be paying for the timing.
