There’s a Nordstrom sale going on that’s easy to scroll past — it’s not the loud Anniversary Sale, just an extra 20% off select clearance styles. But clearance is where the real price drops hide, so I pulled the items that still had decent size and color availability when I checked. Prices were as marked on October 27, and the deal runs through Monday, November 2.
Quick note on how this works: it’s Nordstrom mainline, not Nordstrom Rack, so shipping and returns are free on everything below. That matters more than you’d think when you’re buying a $125 sport coat and it arrives looking chopped on your frame. Look for the red Extra Savings tag — those items already had 20% knocked off, then got another 20% on top. It’s a true clearance, so stock is dwindling. Some of these may not be there by the weekend.
The picks worth a look
Rodd & Gunn Haldon Regular Fit Stretch Wool & Cotton Sport Coat — $222.87 (was $398)
Italian 78% wool, 19% cotton, 3% elastane, built soft enough to look right over a tee or a polo. It runs a touch short in the tail, which is common for casual-leaning sport coats, so if you’re between sizes I’d go up. At this price, a free return removes most of the risk.
Tom Ford Kevyn 52mm Square Sunglasses — $197.59 (was $370)
Sunglasses are one of those things you wear with nearly everything, so the per-wear math is different from a jacket. Whether $197 is a steal depends on your relationship with expensive eyewear. I’ve been the person who’d white-knuckle a $400 pair in a cab, so I’d weigh that before clicking buy. The price is real, the brand is real, and it’s free to return if they don’t suit you.
Nordstrom Regular Fit 4-Pack Supima Cotton T-Shirts — $23.80 (was $59.50)
This is the one I’d put in the cart without overthinking. 100% Supima cotton with an anti-microbial finish, and it works out to $5.95 a shirt. Black tees are the one item of clothing that never goes out of style, and at this price there’s nothing to lose. This is the easiest yes on the list.
Magnanni Made in Spain Magico Bit Loafers — $265.32 (was $495)
These come from Magnanni’s Flex line, which is their comfort-focused construction. For loafers that look dressy enough for a blazer but won’t punish your feet by 3 p.m., that’s a fair trade at $265. The bit detail keeps them from looking like a basic slip-on.
Nordstrom Trim Fit Solid Premium Performance Dress Shirt — $51.73 (was $99.50)
Sized by neck and sleeve measurements rather than S/M/L, which is more precise. The blend is 45% cotton, 30% nylon, 21% lyocell, 4% spandex — a lot of engineered fiber, but that’s the point for a performance dress shirt. Still has a healthy cotton base, and the blue is a solid, non-fussy shade. If you want a dress shirt that breathes and moves, this is a reasonable entry point.
Rhone Performance Piqué Polos — $57.59 (was $108)
Rhone’s piqué polos are genuinely good — breathable, wicking, stretchy, with a hidden button-down collar that stays put under a sport coat. Available in navy or lichen green. Here’s the catch: when Rhone discounts its own inventory, it’s usually final sale. The Nordstrom version ships and returns free, which changes the risk calculus enough for me to say this is worth a look.
BOSS Made in Italy Dresletic Suede Chukka Boot — $213.86 (was $399)
Dark brown suede chukkas, made in Italy. Short list, no notes needed. This is the kind of item where the “made in Italy” line and the price drop together do the selling.
Nordstrom Henrik Trim Fit Grey Microcheck Knit Sport Coat — $125.59 (was $349)
From the Henrik line, but unlike most of that line, this one runs in S/M/L sizes rather than precise chest measurements. Based on how the chest-sized Henrik coats fit, expect this to run a little shorter. At $125 with free returns, the worst case is a return label in the mail. That’s a low-stakes purchase.
BOSS Hutson Slim Fit Light Blue Windowpane Check Sport Coat — $279.60 (was $699)
The fabric is 54% polyester, 44% virgin wool, 2% elastane — not the usual wool-first blend, but there’s enough wool in there to move and drape naturally. The windowpane check adds a bit of visual interest without screaming for attention. A good option if you want something slightly more patterned than a solid coat.
Allen Edmonds Apex Driving Loafers — $182 (was $350)
One heads-up: these are imported, not made in Port Washington, Wisconsin, where Allen Edmonds builds its mainline. With costs rising across the board, that’s less surprising than it used to be. If you want to try the imported line at a clearance price, this is a low-risk way to do it. Free returns apply.
Nordstrom Assorted 3-Pack Combed Cotton Blend Dress Socks — $16.19 (was $45)
$5.39 a pair of versatile dress socks, free shipping, free returns. Not a headline-grabber, but it’s the kind of line item that quietly makes the whole cart worth it.
Worth It? — My honest take
The tee pack at $23.80 is a clear yes — $5.95 per shirt is hard to argue with. The Magnanni loafers at $265.32 and the BOSS chukkas at $213.86 are the two items I’d actually reach for if I needed shoes. The Rodd & Gunn sport coat at $222.87 is solid value if the fit works on you, and the free return policy makes that an easy test. The Tom Ford sunglasses are the most personal call — great price, but I’d only grab them if I already knew I’d keep them.
Everything here is free to ship and return, which is the part most clearance sales get wrong. If something doesn’t work, it’s not a sunk cost.
FAQ
When does the sale end? The extra 20% off select clearance items at Nordstrom runs through Monday, November 2, 2026.
Is this Nordstrom or Nordstrom Rack? It’s Nordstrom mainline, not the Rack off-price chain. That means free shipping and free returns on everything listed.
Are prices changing? Prices were as marked on October 27. This is a true clearance, so inventory is limited and can sell out before the deadline. Pricing can also change.
A note from Dana: I once bought a “waterproof” phone case that lasted one beach trip. Since then I’ve learned to check the return policy before I check the price. This Nordstrom clearance is one of those sales where the free returns do half the work — the prices are good, but the no-risk part is what makes me actually click through. If you’re in the market for a sport coat, loafers, or just some decent tees, this is a reasonable day to do it. More menswear finds here: Product Finds and current deals.
