Summer Clearance Is Here — and the Deals Are Big
Sidewalk Sales, Store Clearance Events, and Ridiculous Days at Brown’s Shoe Fit Co.
Every summer, something happens at Brown’s Shoe Fit Co. that our regulars look forward to all year: summer clearance sales. July and August mean big markdowns, tables packed with shoes, and savings on the brands and styles you already know and love. Whether your local store is rolling out tables onto the sidewalk or hosting an in-store clearance blowout, now is the time to stock up — before the best sizes disappear.
Here’s what to expect, and why summer clearance at Brown’s is worth making a trip for.
What Is Summer Clearance at Brown’s?
Brown’s Shoe Fit Co. stores are locally owned and operated, which means clearance events look a little different from store to store. Your local Brown’s knows its community, its customers, and what’s worth celebrating — and summer clearance is one of those celebrations. Across our locations, the summer months bring a variety of events designed to move great shoes at great prices.
Sidewalk Sales
When the weather cooperates, so do we. Sidewalk sales mean tables full of clearance footwear set up right outside the store — a true outdoor shopping experience where you can browse, try on, and score deep discounts on shoes from the brands you trust. Past styles, previous-season colorways, and overstocked inventory all find their way onto the tables. If you’ve been waiting for a deal on a beloved style, a sidewalk sale is the place to find it.
In-Store Clearance Events
Many Brown’s locations run dedicated clearance sales throughout July and August — expanded selections, reduced prices throughout the store, and the chance to get expert fit help while you shop. These aren’t rack-and-dig affairs. Our staff is still here, still fitting feet, still making sure you walk out with the right shoe. The only thing that changes is the price tag.
Ridiculous Days
The name says it all. Ridiculous Days are exactly what they sound like — limited-time events where savings on specific styles, tables, and select inventory go from good to genuinely hard to believe. These are the events worth setting a reminder for. When Ridiculous Days hit your community, check your local Brown’s, and act fast. These deals move quickly.
What Brands and Styles Are on Sale?
Brown’s carries the brands that have earned loyal followings for good reason — HOKA, Brooks, New Balance, ASICS, Birkenstock, Dansko, Taos, and more. Summer clearance is your opportunity to pick up previous-season styles and past versions of fan-favorite models from the brands you already know and love, at a fraction of their original price.
A previous-season shoe isn’t a lesser shoe. The cushioning, the fit, the technology — it’s all still there. The only thing that changed is the calendar. If a shoe fit you well last year, there’s a very good chance this summer’s clearance has something you’ll be excited about.
A great shoe at a great price is still a great shoe.
Clearance inventory varies by location — each store curates its own selection based on what’s available and what its community needs. That means what’s on the tables in one town may look different from what’s available a few miles away. The best way to see what your store has is to stop in.
Tips for Shopping Summer Clearance at Brown’s
Go Early
Clearance inventory is limited, and popular sizes go fast. If your local store is hosting a sidewalk sale or Ridiculous Day event, showing up early gives you the best shot at the widest selection. Once a size is gone, it’s gone.
Know Your Size
(or let us measure you)
Clearance is a great time to try a brand or style you’ve been curious about. If you’re not sure of your size in a new brand, our fit specialists can measure your foot and assess your gait on the spot. Getting the right fit matters just as much when a shoe is on sale as it does at full price.
Think Ahead
Summer clearance is one of the best times to stock up on everyday shoes, work shoes, and athletic footwear before fall. If you know you’ll need a new pair of walking shoes or a fresh daily trainer before the school year starts or the weather shifts, buying now at clearance prices just makes sense.
Check With Your Local Store
Because Brown’s locations are locally owned, event dates, inventory, and sale details vary by store. Reach out to your local Brown’s — by phone, on social media, or in person — to find out what’s coming up near you. Your store’s team is the best source for what’s on sale, when, and for how long.
