Specific Examples From Last Year’s Sale
Here are a few examples of real deals Foot Locker offered during the 2024 Black Friday and Cyber Monday events. While exact items will vary this year, these examples give a general idea of the kind of discounts that were available:
-
Nike Air Max 270 (Men’s): Regular price $160, dropped to $99.99 (38% off)
-
Adidas Ultraboost 1.0 DNA (Women’s): Regular $190, went down to $114.99 (39% off)
-
Jordan Delta 3 Low: Marked down from $150 to $89.99 (40% off)
-

Adidas Originals Backpack: Dropped from $45 to $29.99 (33% off)
During Cyber Monday, many of these same items had an extra 10% off online, which meant deeper savings for those shopping from home.
What Not to Expect
There are also a few things you probably shouldn’t expect during the 2025 sale:
-
New release Jordans: These usually don’t go on sale and are rarely included in promotions.
-
Site-wide blanket discounts: Not everything will be discounted. The “up to 60% off” messaging means that some items will only see small markdowns or none at all.
-
High-end collabs or limited editions: Premium releases, like Off-White or Travis Scott collabs, are unlikely to be included.
Returns and Shipping Policies
Foot Locker usually honors its standard return policy during Black Friday. As of last year:
-
Returns allowed within 45 days of purchase
-
Must be in original condition and packaging
-
Return shipping may not be free unless the item was defective
For shipping, standard delivery was free on orders over $50 last year. Expect similar terms this year. Expedited shipping costs extra, but that’s normal.
Just double-check the return window, especially if you’re buying holiday gifts—some stores extend return periods into January.
