Last month, I spent weeks covering Nordstrom's various Black Friday sales—everything from sneakers to basics to boots and beyond. And dear reader, I'm pleased to announce that its Half-Yearly Sale (which is going on right now) is even better.
The retailer heard your cries for help with end-of-year shopping and decided to come to the rescue. Nordstrom marked down all its most popular sneaker styles for your shopping pleasure (and your family's opening pleasure) in its bi-annual Half Yearly Sale. All the best brands are included, including Adidas, New Balance, Gola, On, Reebok, and many, many, many more.
Most of 2025's buzziest sneakers made the list. Adidas's Tokyos, Gazelles, and Sambas are all marked down, as well as New Balance's 740 Sneakers, On's Cloud 6, and Reebok's Club C '85. Essentially, that's everything on your sneaker shopping list.
Shop Sneakers at Nordstrom's Half-Yearly Sale
I've officially worn my favorite Gazelles into the ground—yep, they're that good. At 30 percent off, it might just be time to replace them.
Ask anyone about why they love On sneakers and expect to be treated to a long-winded speech about their comfort and support. Shop these Cloud 6 sneakers, and you'll understand.
In the sneaker world, it doesn't get more classic than New Balance's 740s. This pink style gives the gorpcore look a more femme feel.
I've had "bright red sneakers" metaphorically written at the top of my shopping list for several years now. Vince's Oasis sneakers might just be The Ones.
Tory Burch sneakers for less than $160? That's a deal you'll probably never see again. Take advantage while you can.
You probably didn't have "burgundy patent leather croc sneakers" on your 2026 bingo card, but maybe you should add it? Because these babies are unexpectedly cool.
Retro sneaker girlies, your time is now. Reebok has marked down their signature style 35 percent—for a limited time only.
You'd be surprised how versatile leopard print sneakers really are. Invest in a pair of your own and you'll soon find out what I'm talking about.
Fashion's most comfortable brand has teamed up with one of the most stylish. And they're presently $50-off.
Anyone familiar with Adidas prices knows, this is a good freakin' deal. Scoop them up in cherry red (or several other colorways) before someone else does.
These suede sneakers feel festive, but timeless all the same.
Don't leave Converse out of the sneaker conversation, whatever you do. Yes, they make a great high-top, but their casual sneakers are really where they thrive, IMO.
Fuzzy Gazelle sneakers with a gummy, platform sole? For $90?! That's enough to get an impulse purchase out of me.
The combination of cherry red and burgundy makes these Sam Edelman sneakers feel decidedly runway-inspired.
Yes, I included three pairs of Gazelles in this story. No, I will not apologize for it.
