Based on past years and current trends, here’s everything you need to know about Kate Spade’s upcoming Black Friday event; including when it will start, what kinds of discounts you can expect, what to avoid, and examples of popular sale items from last year.
Expected Black Friday 2025 Sale Dates
Just like in recent years, Kate Spade likely won’t be waiting until the actual Friday to kick things off. The sale is expected to begin three days before Thanksgiving, which means it should go live on Monday, November 24, 2025.
The sale usually runs through Cyber Monday and doesn’t wrap up until the Tuesday after. So, you’ll probably have until Tuesday, December 2, 2025, to shop the deals. That gives you over a week to browse and buy, assuming something doesn’t sell out early.
Where the Sale Is Available
This sale is specifically for Kate Spade Outlet locations and the official Kate Spade Outlet website at katespadeoutlet.com. It’s important to note that it does not apply to the main site or regular Kate Spade retail stores. It’s also not valid at Kate Spade New York specialty shops.
So, if you’re looking for the Black Friday discounts, make sure you’re shopping either on the outlet website or at a physical Kate Spade Outlet store.
Types of Discounts
In past years, and likely again in 2025, the brand offers up to 70% off outlet prices on almost everything. On top of that, they add an extra 25% off your total purchase. That extra discount is applied at checkout when you shop online using a promo code (last year’s code was EXTRA25).
However, some exclusions apply, and it’s best to be aware of those upfront so you’re not caught off guard.
What’s Excluded
Even though the sale is huge, not everything is included. Here’s a list of items that are typically excluded from the discount:
-
Gift cards
-
DIY Gift Wrap Kits
-
The Boris Lawrence Henson Foundation x Kate Spade Necklace
-
Pet products
-
“Deal of the Day” styles
-
Fragrance
-
Full-price jewelry
-
Full-price sneakers
Also, the sale prices do not apply to any purchases made before the sale started. All sales during the event are final, meaning no returns, refunds, credits, or exchanges are allowed for Black Friday items, whether you shop online or in-store.
Make sure you double-check your order before completing it, because once it’s placed, you can’t change your mind later.
Examples of Sale Items from Last Year
To get an idea of what to expect, here are some real examples from the 2024 Kate Spade Outlet Black Friday sale. These prices already included the extra 25% off at checkout.
