48 Nearly Out-Of-Stock Shoes From Nordstrom’s Anniversary Sale
From trendy sneakers and heels to fall-friendly boots.


Nothing beats a good shoe sale. I'm the kind of person who can always make room in her closet for something new—especially in the footwear category—and Nordstrom’s Anniversary Sale has a particularly great selection of discounted finds. Even better: I did the work to track down the best shoe deals so you don't have to.
I found everything you need to elevate your shoe wardrobe, from the trendiest sneakers of the year to strappy sandals perfect for wearing in a heat wave. And because you can never be too ahead of schedule, I found every type of boot you need for the fall and winter seasons, too. Sprinkle in a selection of ballet flats and enough heels to warrant a second shoe closet, and you have my dream list of recommendations.
If you’re new to the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, I’ve also answered your most burning questions. From how to shop it to how long the discounts will be running for, this is your unofficial guide to the hundreds of shoes included in the sale. If you're ready to go shopping, you can jump directly to the section or just shop our top pick from each category—it's like a very fashionable choose-your-own-adventure.

Best Sneaker Deals on Nordstrom
Nordstrom's massive sale section includes some of the best sneakers on the market. While our favorite is a sporty black pair of sneakers from On, you'll also find white sneakers from Adidas (not the Sambas, though—something fresh!) and slip-on sneakers from Vince. There's even a chunkier sneaker here from P448 that would also double as the perfect work sneaker.
Best Flat Deals on Nordstrom
Ballet flats are the talk of the fashion crowd this summer, and Nordstrom's sale section has a few of the best pairs on the market. There are classic pointed-toe flats for the office, Mary Jane styles that are adorned with pearls from Stuart Weitzman, and a pair of silver flats from Taylor-Swift-approved brand Chinese Laundry.
Katie Holmes loves a silver ballet flat, so I love a silver ballet flat—especially this pair from Chinese Laundry.
The higher vamp, or coverage at the top of the foot, on this pair of flats from Franco Sarto makes them ideal summer work shoes. They would look great paired with a thin tight or a sock come fall.
You've heard of the silver footwear trend, but have you considered gold footwear? This pair from Mansur Gavriel might just convince you.
Best Sandal Deals on Nordstrom
Summer is sandal season. Even if you're not a fan of showing your toes on the city streets, it's important to have a pair or two to keep on-hand in your vacation capsule wardrobe. I found chunky sandals that are supportive and comfortable, chic flip-flops, and wedge sandals perfect for wearing with a sun dress.
Strappy sandals are always a classic. This pair has a low heel and wider straps for added comfort.
White flatforms are so versatile—I could see these working with flared jeans or a summer dress.
Best Boot Deals on Nordstrom
Colder weather will be here before you know it, so right now is a great time to invest in a pair of black boots. Plus, with how much rain New York is getting, I have my eye on a pair of rain boots from Hunter that will go with all of my outfits, no matter the season. However, I also found knee-high and ankle boots that you'll live in this year.

These waterproof boots from Hunter come in a bright gray hue that's the cure to your slew of all-black outfits.
Best Heel Deals on Nordstrom
No matter how you wear your heels, they're never not a bad investment. I found kitten heels perfect for wearing to the office plus a few heeled sandals you can wear to your next formal event.
No red carpet would be complete without at least one pair of Nudistcurve Ankle Strap Sandals. They've been worn by Kim Kardashian, Meghan Markle, and Emily Ratajkowski, to name a few. This pair has a manageable size 75mm (roughly three inch) heel, so you don't need to be a pro to make them work.
