Every July, the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale quietly roars to life in high summer. It's prime time for bargain hunting, especially on footwear. Former Nordstrom employee and our colleague, Jaclyn Turner, highlights shoes as a must-watch category in her Anniversary Sale guide. There are ultra-popular styles with once-a-year discounts, and some of our enduring favorites have near rock-bottom pricing.
It's a refreshingly old-fashioned sale. There are no sneaky tricks like bumping up the price of an item weeks before to make discounts look steeper. You see exactly what the price is now and what is will jump to once the sale is over. And the brands that are on sale are all labels that you already know — UGG, New Balance,Steve Madden. Not unpronounceable collections of random uppercase letters that need to be vetted for legitimacy (can you tell I worked Amazon Prime Day last week?).
