11 Things on Sale You’ll Actually Want to Buy: From Keen to the North Face

If the best time to find deals on winter garments is during the height of summer, apparently, the second-best time is right now because I found kids’ snow boots, a fleece-lined beanie, and a North Face windbreaker on sale today. You’ll also find three bags for travel, grandma-chic slippers, and a half-off air fryer. And don’t miss Shopbop’s three-day-only sale, which ends at midnight tonight.

If you missed yesterday’s on-sale air fryer, don’t fret: This nearly identical (albeit smaller) option is half-off until midnight.

Here’s a low-profile slipper that has a cushy memory foam sole and a grippy tread. They’re on sale in four colors — blue (pictured here), pink, gray, and black — though blue and pink are a few dollars cheaper than gray and black.

From $19

One of our best travel coffee mugs is this one from Hydroflask, which features the brand’s spill-proof Flex Sip lid. It’s on sale in black, indigo (a dark blue), and snapper (a medium blue) at Amazon, and black at REI.

It’s your last chance to take 20 percent off all new fall styles at Shopbop with the code FALL20 before the sale ends tonight. Our best nylon duffel bag is this one from Paravel, which one source told us is “the Mary Poppins of duffels: It fits my camera gearlaptopblanket, a change of clothes, and the kitchen sink.”

If you tend to sleep with your hair tied up, these silk scrunchies (from the maker of one of our favorite silk pillowcases) will keep hair pulled back without causing dents or breakage.

Clearance items are an extra 20 percent off, making this fleece-lined beanie only $11.

Keen’s Seacamp II CNX shoes are a great transitional style from summer to fall. They feature the brand’s signature rubber toe bumper and a thick, grippy sole that makes them ideal for outdoor play. (And since they’re lined with neoprene, they’re still comfortable if they get wet.)

Okay, it may be a little early to get your child snow boots — but these waterproof Keens are incredibly cheap.

This slightly cropped North Face windbreaker features reflective lines for increased visibility on early-morning or late-evening walks.

Here’s a crossbody bag for carrying the essentials that’s on super-sale (and comes in four colors).

And here’s a fanny pack-style version for $10.
