Questions & Comments

What shoes are on your Black Friday shopping list? Besides Famous Footwear, where else are you planning on looking for shoe deals this holiday weekend? Let us know in the comments below.

Updated on Saturday, November 15, 2025: Famous Footwear’s Cyber Monday event usually follows directly after their Black Friday sale, offering an online-only promo code and free shipping perks, while in-store shoppers continue with the same buy-one-get-one-half-off offer from the weekend before. If you’re planning to grab boots, sneakers, or casual shoes before the holidays, here’s what you can expect to see this year.

Cyber Monday 2025 Sale Dates

Famous Footwear’s Cyber Monday 2025 sale is expected to start on Monday, December 1, 2025. The sale usually runs for about three days, likely ending Wednesday, December 3, 2025, exclusively at famousfootwear.com.

Typical Deals

For the last several years, Famous Footwear has offered an extra 30% off online purchases during Cyber Monday with a promo code (last year’s was CYBERSALE24) and free standard shipping for all Famously YOU Rewards members. Free shipping generally applies across the contiguous U.S. and doesn’t require a minimum purchase if you’re signed in to your account.

This extra 30% off can usually be applied once per person per transaction, with up to 21 items allowed. It can’t be stacked with other discounts, used in-store, or applied to gift cards, taxes, or past orders. Rewards points earned from purchases appear within about 72 hours and can later be redeemed as Reward Cash.

If you prefer to shop in person, the BOGO ½ Off sale that runs during Black Friday tends to continue through Cyber Monday week. It’s generally limited to select footwear and cannot be combined with the online 30% off promo. Most brand exclusions that apply online also apply to this offer in-store.

Featured Sale Items Last Year

Price cuts usually apply across categories rather than just one brand, and Famous Footwear tends to mark many items under the $50 range. Here are examples of deals that ran last year:

Converse Platform Sneakers – $49.99
Nike Court Vision Sneakers – $49.99
Crocs Cozzzy Slippers – $37.99
BEARPAW Martis Snuggle – $34.99
HEYDUDE Wendy Fold – $29.99
Women’s Tall Boots – $49.99 and under
Western Boots – $29.98
Kids’ Character Shoes – $29.99 and under
Dr. Martens Zavala – $79.99

Possible Brand Exclusions and Restrictions

Not every brand qualifies for the 30% discount code. Last year, the promo excluded many of Famous Footwear’s top labels, including:

Birkenstock, Bogs, Brooks, Converse, Crocs, Dansko, Dr. Martens, HEYDUDE, Hunter, Jansport, Koolaburra by UGG, Native, New Balance, Nike, OOFOS, SOREL, TOMS, Vionic, and select lines from adidas, ASICS, BEARPAW, Dr. Scholl’s, Naturalizer, Steve Madden, Teva, and Timberland.

If the pattern holds, 2025 will likely feature similar exclusions, meaning those brands will be marked down separately but won’t qualify for the extra 30% code.
