Arc’teryx, known for its high-quality outdoor apparel, gear, and accessories, traditionally participates in Black Friday with a limited but noteworthy sale. Here’s a look at what you can expect this year, when the likely sale dates will be, and how to make the most of the upcoming event.
When Will Arc’teryx’s Black Friday Sale Start in 2025?
If Arc’teryx follows its usual schedule, the Black Friday sale is expected to begin on Monday, November 24, 2025. The event will likely run through Cyber Monday, December 1, 2025, giving you just over a week to shop.
Historically, the sale lasts until 11:59 PM PST on Cyber Monday, but it’s important to note that Arc’teryx’s Black Friday deals are limited to in-stock products only. That means once popular sizes or styles sell out, they’re gone. There are no rainchecks or special orders, and last year, price adjustments on prior purchases weren’t offered.
Expected Discounts: What Will Be on Sale?
If Arc’teryx sticks to its usual Black Friday game plan, here’s a breakdown of what you can expect:
- Extra 15% Off Outlet Items: This is the cornerstone of Arc’teryx’s Black Friday event. The outlet section at arcteryx.com is where you’ll find discounted gear year-round, and during Black Friday, you’ll save even more with an additional 15% off. For context, Arc’teryx outlet prices can already be reduced by 20% to 50%, so stacking an extra discount can lead to significant savings.
- Up to 30% Off Select Products: Alongside the outlet deals, Arc’teryx typically offers a handful of products at discounts of up to 30% off. While these deals aren’t widespread, they often include select jackets, mid-layers, and accessories.
Not everything will be discounted. Based on previous years, exclusions will apply, and the discount opportunities will be limited to specific categories and products. For example, some of Arc’teryx’s most popular items, like the Alpha SV jacket or the Beta AR, may not see markdowns during Black Friday. Still, it’s worth checking the outlet section—especially for discontinued colorways or past-season styles.
Keep in mind, the promotion is usually not valid at Arc’teryx’s brand stores or dealer locations. Full-priced items in their regular retail stores are typically excluded from Black Friday discounts. Additionally, customers in Canada, Europe, China, Japan, Australia, or New Zealand are not eligible for these deals. The sale is expected to be exclusive to U.S. customers.
What to Buy During Arc’teryx’s Black Friday Sale
If you’re familiar with Arc’teryx, you know their gear doesn’t come cheap. It’s an investment—but one that outdoor enthusiasts find worth every penny for its performance, durability, and innovative design. Black Friday offers a rare opportunity to score savings on Arc’teryx gear, particularly if you focus on the following categories:
1. Technical Jackets
Arc’teryx is perhaps best known for its technical jackets, which are designed for mountaineering, skiing, hiking, and other outdoor activities. While their flagship models may not get discounts, you might find older-season styles or less popular colorways in the outlet section. Look for jackets like:
- Beta LT: A lightweight GORE-TEX jacket that’s versatile enough for hiking, climbing, and general use.
- Atom LT Hoody: A fan-favorite mid-layer that works well for everything from winter layering to cool-weather hiking.
- Cerium LT Down Hoody: Insulated with responsibly sourced down, this jacket is perfect for cold-weather adventures.
2. Mid-Layers and Fleece
If you’re looking to upgrade your layering system, Black Friday is a great time to shop Arc’teryx’s mid-layers and fleece options. The Kyanite Hoody and Rho LT Zip Neck are often popular choices.
3. Outdoor Pants
Arc’teryx’s outdoor pants, such as the Gamma LT and Gamma MX, are incredibly durable and versatile. They’re ideal for hiking, climbing, or everyday wear. These can occasionally pop up in the outlet section during Black Friday.
4. Accessories
Don’t overlook accessories during the sale. Items like gloves, hats, and backpacks can often be found at great prices. Look for options like:
- Bird Head Toque: A stylish and warm beanie for winter adventures.
- Mantis 26 Backpack: A versatile daypack that works for both outdoor excursions and urban commuting.
5. Footwear
Arc’teryx’s footwear line includes hiking boots, approach shoes, and trail running shoes. If you’re lucky, you might find select styles in the outlet section during Black Friday.
