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 find the best shoe deals, so you didn’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.
The Best Deals We've Found (So Far)
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.

Chinese Laundry Audrey Ballet Flats (Were $70)
Behold the perfect pair of silver flats (the shoe trend Katie Holmes has co-signed ). The dainty bow makes them feel dressier, but they could just as easily work on your days off, too. If you don't love the silver iteration, they come in two other neutral shades.

Vince Ana Mules (Were $295)
Not all flat shoes need to be a pair of ballet flats specifically. This on-sale pair of minimalistic mules from Vince are proof that the flatter silhouette is versatile, too.
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.

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.
