Allen Edmonds Black Friday 2025 Sale – The Deals Are Live!

Updated on Friday, November 21, 2025: Allen Edmonds’ Black Friday sale officially kicked off this morning! It’s one of the few times of the year when you can grab these quality pieces at a significant discount. Here are the confirmed details for this year, including prices, featured styles, and when to shop.

Black Friday 2025 Sale Dates & Duration

Allen Edmonds has maintained a consistent Black Friday schedule in recent years, and 2025 is no exception:

Shop online at allenedmonds.com or any Allen Edmonds retail store in the U.S. or Canada. All online orders over $100 qualify for free shipping during the Black Friday event, though delivery may take slightly longer due to high demand.

The sale applies to select styles and runs while supplies last. Popular shoes and boots often sell out quickly, so if there’s a pair you’ve been eyeing, it’s wise to act early.
