Nike Sales FAQ
When does Nike have sales?
Nike runs major sales during Black Friday, Cyber Monday, Memorial Day, Labor Day, and Back-to-School season in the US. They also celebrate Air Max Day every March 26 with special releases and promotions.
Outside the US, look for Boxing Day sales in the UK, Canada, and Australia, plus 11.11 and 12.12 mega-sales in Asia and the Middle East. Nike's Sale section is available year-round on their website with up to 50-60% off select items.
What's Nike Membership and is it free?
Nike Membership is 100% free and gives you access to exclusive benefits. Members get free standard shipping on all orders, early access to new releases, 30-day receiptless returns through the Nike App, and access to Member-only sales events.
You also get expert training advice through the Nike Training Club and Nike Run Club apps, plus invites to special member experiences and workouts. All you need is a Nike account to become a member.
Does Nike offer student discounts?
Yes! Eligible students get 10% off most Nike items after verifying their status through UNiDAYS or SheerID. The discount works online and applies to both full-price and some sale items.
You need to verify your student status by providing proof of enrollment at a high school or university. Once verified, you'll receive a special discount link or access to use at checkout.
What is Nike's return policy?
Nike offers a 30-day return window on all online purchases from the shipping date. Items can be returned even if worn, as long as they show normal trial use. If there's a manufacturing defect, Nike also provides a 2-year warranty.
Nike Members can return items receipt-free using the Nike App. For non-members, keep your packing slip or order confirmation. Refunds are issued to the original payment method, though in-store returns may receive gift cards instead if you paid via PayPal.
How does the Nike SNKRS app work?
SNKRS is Nike's exclusive app for limited-edition sneaker releases. Drops usually happen through different methods: LEO (Let Everyone Order) is a 2-minute raffle where entries are randomly selected, while DAN (Draw A Name) and FCFS (First Come First Served) are other release types.
To increase your chances, turn on push notifications, have your payment and shipping details saved in advance, and use Face ID or fingerprint for quick checkout. Nike also does surprise “shock drops” on SNKRS, so stay alert.
Does Nike restock sold-out items?
Nike restocks online products about 2-3 times per week, typically on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday. However, restocks are unpredictable and often come from returned items rather than new inventory.
Physical Nike stores restock three days a week following the same schedule. For highly sought-after sneakers, check other Nike-licensed retailers like Foot Locker as they sometimes get restocks when Nike.com doesn't.
There's no official notification system for restocks, so you'll need to check manually or use third-party stock alert tools.
Does Nike price match or adjust prices?
Nike does not price match competitors since they sell their own brand. However, they do offer price adjustments within 14 days if an item you purchased goes on sale on Nike.com.
To request a price adjustment, contact Nike customer service with your order number and proof of the lower price. The difference will be refunded to your original payment method. This policy only applies to Nike.com purchases, not items bought from other retailers.
Are there discounts for military, teachers, and healthcare workers?
Yes! Nike offers a 10% discount to military personnel, first responders, healthcare workers, and teachers in the US. You need to verify your eligibility through SheerID on Nike's website.
Once verified, you'll receive a special link or access to use at checkout. This discount can be used on most full-price items and some sale products. The verification process is quick and usually takes just a few minutes.
What are Nike Member Days?
Member Days are special sales events exclusively for Nike Members, particularly common in Asia-Pacific markets. During these events, members get extra discounts on top of existing sale prices, sometimes with app-only bonuses.
These typically happen in May and October in select regions, offering deep discounts ranging from 40-55% off. Members may also get early access (usually a day before the general public) to major sales like Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
Can I get Nike employee or Friends & Family discounts?
Nike employee discounts are only available to Nike employees and their immediate family members. Employees get access to special pricing through the employee store and the internal “Swoosh” platform, plus guest passes for friends and family to shop at Nike employee stores.
The Friends & Family Pass offers around 30% off at Nike and Converse Factory and Clearance stores. Some companies also secure corporate benefits that give employees access to Nike employee store pricing. These are invite-only and not available to the general public.
