Banana Republic Archives - Blacker Friday

Whether you’re looking to refresh your wardrobe or grab some gifts, Banana Republic’s Black Friday sale is known for its site and storewide deal that will let you save on just about everything in-stock. Here’s a look at what to expect from this year’s event, including the likely sale dates, discount offers, what you can buy, and the exclusions to keep in mind.

Expected Black Friday 2025 Sale Dates

Banana Republic’s 2025 Black Friday sale is expected to begin on Monday, November 24, 2025, and will likely run until Saturday, November 29, 2025. They have been pretty consistent with their sales schedule, the dates tend to repeat year after year.

Afterwards, be on the lookout for nearly the same offer continuing on Sunday morning, just this time online-only, as part of their Cyber Monday event.

The Likely Offer: 40% Off Storewide

Banana Republic typically offers 40% off all regularly priced items in-stock both in-stores and online at bananarepublic.com.

What’s Excluded from the Sale

As with most sales, there are some exclusions and restrictions that shoppers should be aware of. While the 40% off applies to most regularly priced merchandise, there are a few things that likely won’t be included:

Gift Cards: If you were hoping to stock up on Banana Republic gift cards during the sale, unfortunately, they won’t be part of the discount offer. Gift cards are often excluded from major sales events, so you’ll need to pay full price for them if you’re planning to give them as gifts.
Third-Party Merchandise: Any items sold through third-party platforms, such as Facebook or Instagram, are not included in the promotion. This includes merchandise that may be sold by independent sellers on these platforms.
Sale and Clearance Items: As expected, the 40% off deal applies only to full-price merchandise. Items that are already marked down or on clearance will not be eligible for an additional discount.
Certain Product Categories: A few categories are excluded from the sale altogether. These often include leather apparel, suede apparel, Designer Collections & Collaborations, third-party branded merchandise, Banana Republic Art (BR Art), Banana Republic Home (BR Home), shoes, and bags. So, if you had your eye on a leather jacket or a designer collaboration piece, you’ll have to wait for another opportunity to snag a deal on those items.
BR Home Products: If you were hoping to buy home decor or accessories from Banana Republic Home, keep in mind that those items are also excluded from the 40% off discount. This means you’ll need to look for another time or event to purchase home-related items at a discount.
Taxes: As usual, taxes are not included in the sale price. The discount will only apply to the cost of the merchandise, not any applicable taxes.
Other Restrictions: The offer cannot be combined with other discounts or employee discounts. So, if you’re hoping to stack multiple deals together, you’ll need to know that this offer stands on its own.

Here’s what we expect from Banana Republic’s upcoming Cyber Monday 2025 sale, including what it will feature, when it will take place, and how much you can likely save.

Expected Cyber Monday 2025 Sale Dates

Based on the brand’s historical scheduling, the 2025 Cyber Monday sale should start late on Sunday, November 30, 2025, right after the Black Friday event ends. It’s expected to run through Tuesday night, December 2, 2025, ending at 11:59 PM Pacific Time. The promotion typically lasts for three full days, and it’s almost always an online-only event at bananarepublic.com. We likely won’t need a promo code; the discounts are automatically applied at checkout.

The Type of Discounts to Expect

Banana Republic has a clear pattern when it comes to Cyber Monday. For the past few years, the brand has offered 40% off full-priced items site-wide, and 2025 will likely follow that same model. Some pieces may be marked down even further if they were already on sale before the event began, but the 40% figure tends to be the main focus. The discount is automatically visible on eligible items as soon as the sale starts.

That said, not everything qualifies. We’ve seen the same set of exclusions for years, including gift cards, certain leather and suede apparel, third-party merchandise, designer collaborations, and items from Banana Republic’s Home line. Shoes, bags, and some limited-edition collections are also typically excluded. Taxes, shipping, and duties are not part of the discount either.
