The best barefoot shoe sales for the end of summer, back-to-school and Labor Day 2023.
There are a few predictable times for barefoot shoe sales, and end of summer is one of them. Barefoot shoe brands are clearing out summer stock to make way for cold-weather styles, kid’s styles are going on sale for back-to-school, and to top it all off, many US-based brands have Labor Day sales in early September. It’s a great time to grab a pair of sandals or sneakers.
Some brands even have their fall and winter styles discount to promote their initial launch.
For the best selection, shop early! For most of these sales, once they’re gone, they’re gone til next year.
For a list of discounts available all year, check out this post with evergreen barefoot shoe coupon codes.
