Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Kids Picks
The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is now live and it. is. good. Make sure you check out our previous #nsale highlight posts so you don’t miss anything:
- Nordstrom Anniversary Sale must-haves and new favorites
- Top beauty deals in the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale
Often overlooked in this sale are the kids’ clothing and shoes! Everything below is either my favorite brands and styles or items that are selling really well with our readers this year. I started out with just shoes, but then I just got outrageously carried away.
For the past few years, my husband and I have bought our kids 4-5 items from this sale for back to school. We set them aside until it’s chilly enough to wear pants and jackets (which feels like a rite of passage as a parent because it makes our kids SO MAD to not wear their stuff right away). While the Anniversary Sale doesn’t deliver bargain basement prices, they do have some great quality pieces that will last.
This is a good time to grab a nice winter jacket or sweatshirt, denim, long-sleeved shirts and a few quality pairs of shoes.

Big boys (late elementary to middle school):
Nike Dry Elite Basketball Shorts just $25.90 + FREE shipping ($35 after sale) – These are a bit more than I like to spend on shorts for my basketball-loving kid, but I saw them in store and they are SO MUCH CUTER IN PERSON. They absolutely pop with color and are a great material. Available in four colors.
Vans Houser Colorblock Short Sleeve Oxford Shirt just $25.90 + FREE shipping ($39.50 after sale) – This is super cute in person! Would be adorable for school pictures, church, a semi-casual wedding or just a Tuesday.
Vans Off the Wall Hooded Sweatshirt just $28.90 + FREE shipping ($44.50 after sale) – This is SO CUTE in person. Great vibrant blue and super soft and comfy. Also available in toddler and little kid sizes!
Tucker + Tate Long Sleeve T-Shirt just $10.90 + FREE shipping ($17 after sale) – This is my FAVORITE shirt of the sale every year. Super, super soft and hold up really well to multiple washings. Great for layering and my kids love the feel of the fabric. Mostly available in sizes 10-12 and up. Four colors to choose from.
Billabong Transport Hooded Windbreaker just $29.90 + FREE shipping ($45.95 after sale) – My son has this jacket from last year’s sale and it’s been so versatile! Great for layering and perfect for anything outdoors that doesn’t require a winter jacket. He wore it to sleep away camp near the ocean and it was perfect! Also available in toddler and little kid sizes for a bit less.

Nike Sportswear Core Amplify Colorblock Fleece Pants just $32.90 + FREE shipping ($45 after sale) – LOVE these. They come in two classic colors (kind of an 80’s retro vibe) and would be great for school or after-school sports practice.

The North Face Warm Storm Hooded Waterproof Jacket just $66.90 + FREE shipping ($90 after sale) – This is an EXCELLENT price! Waterproof, windproof and breathable and has a fleece-lined hood for extra warmth. My son tried this on in store and it’s a great fit! Comes in two colors.
The North Face Quilted Sweater Fleece Jacket just $47.90 + FREE shipping ($65 after sale) – Great price for this slightly lighter, water-repellent jacket.

Best baby deals (apparel and gear):
Little Me Hooded Chambray Jacket, T-Shirt & Corduroy Pants Set just $37.90 + FREE shipping ($58 after sale) – Fantastic price for this quality 3-piece set! Would make a super cute shower gift as well.
adidas Originals Superstar Track Jacket & Pants Set just $35.90 + FREE shipping ($48 after sale) – I’m certain every baby needs a tracksuit a la Run DMC.
Nordstrom Faux Fur Hooded Footie just $25.90 + FREE shipping ($39 after sale) – These are AMAZING for little ones! Such a great option for chilly nights when you need to be outside or for taking walks during the day. Babies for some reason don’t understand the need to keep a blanket wrapped around them for warmth, so this is a great full-body option.
The North Face Buttery Fleece Bunting just $51.90 + FREE shipping ($70 after sale) – While this one is more expensive than the Nordstrom brand, you know you’re getting the great quality of North Face AND it will have awesome resale value! From my experience, this brand sells for a TON at consignment sales. Find it in Cha Cha Pink in all sizes here.
Baby Bling Waffle Bun Headband just $8.90 + FREE shipping ($14 after sale) – Baby Bling gets CRAZY good reviews and this waffle bun style is super cute and different. Comes in several colors and reviewers say it has tons of stretch (so can grow with baby) and doesn’t leave indentations.
Stokke ‘Flexi Bath’ Foldable Baby Bathtub just $32.90 + FREE shipping ($45 after sale) – I’m super intrigued by this! Flexible, foldaway design in this baby bath would make it perfect for traveling and hotel stays. Also great if you live in a small space with only a shower or to take to grandparents or family when visiting. Gets fantastic reviews!
