If this year’s sales have felt a little lackluster, we have a treat for you: The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is nearly here. Every year, the retailer rolls out deep discounts on shoes, activewear, home goods, luxe beauty, and more—and it looks like it’s keeping that tradition alive this year. We’ve already spotted markdowns on top brands like Nike, Free People, and Hoka, all of which you can shop right now.
Want more deets on the Anniversary Sale? You can preview all the savings here. But if you just want the highlights, stay here and keep scrolling—we’ve found the best early deals you can shop before the sale opens to the public on Saturday, July 12 (more on that below).
Our top picks from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale (so far)
One of the trendiest Nikes of 2025 is on sale—though we doubt it’ll be in stock for long.
Hoka
Arahi 7
Take up to 40% off Hoka’s top shoe for overpronators. Pro tip: We hear it’s an especially good pick for folks with narrow feet.
New Balance
990v6 Sneaker
Everyone needs a good dad shoe as part of their sneaker rotation. This New Balance pair is just the right amount of chunky and cool.
Nike
Free Metcon 6
Fitness industry pros and SELF staffers love this cross trainer for its flexible, grippy sole.
Cole Haan
GrandPro Topspin Triple Strap
Wear this SELF Sneaker Award winner to the office, brunch, or airport—wherever you go, you’ll look chic and feel comfy.
APL
TechLoom Dream
We tested this sleek sneaker and loved it for walks and short runs alike. It’s normally pretty splurge-y, but it’s on sale for $100 now.
Activewear deals
Free People
FP Movement You’re a Peach Pocket Leggings
Keep those itty-bitty essentials you’d hate to lose mid-run safe in the zippered back pocket of these leggings.
Nike
Phoenix Fleece Crewneck Sweatshirt
Even peak-summer mornings can start out a little chilly—that’s when a good sweatshirt really comes in handy.
Zella
All Sport High Waisted Shorts
Keep your runs breezy in these lightweight, sweat-wicking Zella shorts.
Spanx
Airpiqué Straight Leg Pants
We’re big fans of Spanx’s sweatpants, and this particularly sporty-chic pair has cool piping down the front.
Beauty deals
Shark
FlexStyle Air Styling & Drying System
Shark’s styling tools are some of the most convincing Dyson dupes on the market. This set has everything you need for smooth, bouncy hair in a snap.
MAC Cosmetics
Hyper Real Set
Quench thirsty skin with this two-piece set from Mac. The cleansing oil gently removes makeup, while the serum brightens and hydrates.
Pursonic
Facial Steamer Hot Mist Moisturizing Spa
Facial steaming may help with hydration, exfoliation, and product absorption. We like this model from Pursonic because it’s compact and portable (it has its own handle!).
Home and kitchen deals
Parachute
Waffle Cotton Throw
There’s a place and time for ultra-fluffy blankets, but we prefer something more lightweight for summertime naps, like this waffle throw from Parachute.
Italic
Pure Mulberry Silk Pillowcase
Start sleeping on a silk pillowcase and you may never go back. They’re soft, smooth, cooling—and they don’t turn your hair into a tangled mess.
Zwilling
Enfinigy 12-Cup Drip Coffee Maker
This bestselling coffee maker is made of sturdy stainless steel and brews a seriously smooth cup.
Staub
8.5-Inch Enameled Cast Iron Traditional Deep Skillet
Staub’s top-rated skillet is 41% off and comes in eight different colors, so you’re sure to find one that matches your kitchen’s vibe.
