FALKE Sale Dates (2025) | Year-Round Sales Calendar

FALKE runs two main sale periods each year: a mid-year Seasonal Sale in June-July and Black Friday in late November. The summer sale is especially strong in European markets (UK, Germany) and often starts with early access for FALKE FRIENDS newsletter members.

Beyond these confirmed events, FALKE's physical outlet stores in Germany (like Outletcity Metzingen) and other European locations offer permanent discounts throughout the year.

FALKE operates outlet stores primarily in Europe, with locations at Outletcity Metzingen in Germany (the brand's home market), Maasmechelen Village in Belgium, and Bicester Village in the UK. These outlets offer year-round savings of at least 33% on socks, tights, and apparel.

For US shoppers, FALKE doesn't have dedicated outlet locations, but you'll find their products at multi-brand department stores like Nordstrom, Saks, and Bloomingdales, which regularly discount FALKE during seasonal sales. Online, TheOutnet.com carries discounted FALKE items with savings up to 70% off retail prices.

FALKE's own website runs “FALKE Friday” promotions during Black Friday week, though specific discounts vary by region. In South Africa, recent Black Friday sales offered 20-25% off sitewide, while newsletter members got early access a few days before the main event.

Department stores and fashion retailers typically offer deeper FALKE discounts during Black Friday—Zalando's Black Friday pages have shown up to 70% off select FALKE items, and Nordstrom features FALKE in their broader sale sections with significant markdowns. Third-party retailers generally beat FALKE.com pricing during this period.

Department stores like Nordstrom, Bloomingdales, and Zalando discount FALKE more frequently and deeply than FALKE.com—you'll see 30-60% off during their seasonal sales versus the more modest reductions on the brand site. Plus, department stores honor their own loyalty programs and flexible return policies.

Shop FALKE.com when you want the complete current collection, need specific sizes that sell out elsewhere, or want access to exclusive online-only styles. The official site also offers monogramming services on select products and sometimes runs pre-sale events for newsletter members before items hit department stores.

FALKE uses premium materials like merino wool, cashmere, silk, and fine-gauge cotton with reinforced stress zones and hand-linked toes for durability. Reviews from long-term users show pairs lasting 5-10+ years with proper care, which justifies the higher upfront cost compared to fast-fashion alternatives.

That said, value depends on your priorities. If you want everyday basics, FALKE's mid-range cotton blends offer quality without the luxury price tag. For dress socks, business wear, or technical athletic socks, many buyers consider FALKE's craftsmanship and comfort worth paying full retail—or waiting for a sale.

FALKE.com offers free standard shipping on orders over $80 in the US (orders under that pay $19 shipping) and free shipping over £49 in the UK (£5.90 for orders below). Delivery takes approximately 4-7 business days for US orders and 3-5 business days for UK orders.

Most department stores that carry FALKE also provide their own free shipping thresholds—often lower than FALKE's direct site. Nordstrom, for example, offers free standard shipping on all orders with no minimum, which can save you money if you're buying just one or two pairs of socks.

The Airport sock line consistently ranks as FALKE's bestseller—these lightweight dress socks in cotton blends come in knee-high and regular lengths and are designed for all-day wear. The Shadow line and various merino wool options also appear frequently in FALKE's “Heroes” bestseller collection.

For women, the Dot 15 DEN tights and Seidenglatt 15 DEN stay-ups lead the hosiery category. FALKE's athletic socks (RU5 running socks, TK1 trekking socks) maintain strong followings among outdoor enthusiasts, though reviews note they're best suited for specific activities rather than daily wear.

FALKE doesn't run a dedicated outlet website, but you can access outlet-level pricing online through outlet.falke.com (which serves European markets) and third-party sites like TheOutnet.com, which regularly stocks FALKE at 40-70% off retail prices with international shipping.

European outlet shopping villages like Bicester Village and Maasmechelen Village offer virtual shopping appointments where staff can show you FALKE products over video call and ship internationally. This gives you outlet pricing without traveling to physical locations, though selection is more limited than in-person visits.

Popular sizes and colors in bestselling lines like Airport socks sell out within the first few days of major sales, especially during Black Friday and the June-July Seasonal Sale. If you have your eye on a specific item at a sale price, don't wait—FALKE rarely restocks sale merchandise.

Outlet stores and partner retailers maintain broader ongoing inventory, so if you miss a sale on FALKE.com, check department stores or European outlet sites like TheOutnet.com within a week or two. They often receive similar stock and extend their own sale periods longer than the brand site.

FALKE socks are sized by shoe size rather than S/M/L, which gives a more precise fit than generic sizing. They tend to run true to size with good stretch, though some users find certain lines like Airport socks fit snugly at first and relax slightly after a few wears.

The brand uses comfort cuffs that hold socks up without binding, and reinforced heels/toes that prevent sliding and bunching. If you're between sizes on FALKE's size chart, most reviews suggest sizing up for knee-high styles and sticking to your exact shoe size for ankle and crew socks.
