Zappos Sales FAQ
Does Zappos run major holiday sales?
Yes. You'll find their biggest markdowns during Black Friday, Cyber Monday, Presidents' Day, Memorial Day, and Labor Day. They slash prices on top-tier athletic wear and premium shoes during these specific windows.
Is there a year-round clearance section?
Absolutely. Zappos maintains a permanent, massive sale page that refreshes daily. You don't have to wait for a holiday event to grab deep discounts on footwear and apparel.
Do sale items still get free shipping?
Yes, every single time. Zappos provides free standard shipping on all U.S. orders with absolutely no minimum spend requirement. Buying a heavily discounted pair of socks still gets you free delivery.
Will they price match a competitor's sale?
They do, but only before you buy. If you find the exact same brand, size, and color for less on a qualifying competitor's site, Zappos will match that price. Just contact their customer service before placing your order.
What happens if I buy a shoe and the price drops the next day?
You aren't out of luck. Zappos offers a 10-day price protection window. If an item you bought drops in price on their website within 10 days of purchase, they'll refund you the difference.
Why is one shoe color cheaper than another?
Pricing varies heavily based on inventory and demand. A popular all-black sneaker might stay at full retail, while a seasonal neon green version drops by 40%. Always click through every color option to find the hidden deals.
Which brands actually get the biggest markdowns?
Athletic and comfort footwear see the steepest price cuts. You'll regularly find massive drops on top brands like Hoka, ASICS, Brooks, Crocs, and UGG. Seasonal outerwear and activewear follow closely behind.
Can global shoppers order from the U.S. sale events?
Not directly. Zappos strictly ships to U.S. addresses, territories, and APO/FPO military bases. International buyers must use a third-party package forwarding service to take advantage of these deals.
Does the VIP program help you save money?
Yes. It's a free loyalty program where you earn points on every purchase, which eventually convert to reward dollars. More importantly, VIP members automatically get free expedited shipping, saving you extra cash on fast delivery.
Do Amazon Prime members get extra perks on Zappos?
Prime members don't get exclusive sale prices, but they earn rewards twice as fast. By linking your Prime account to your Zappos VIP profile, you'll earn two points per dollar spent instead of one.
