Updated on Monday, December 9, 2024: As the year winds down, UNIQLO’s After Christmas Sale, officially called their “End-Of-Season Sale,” is your opportunity to save on some of your favorite items as they clear out last season’s inventory. Here’s what you can expect, including when the sale begins and what discounts will be available.
Sale Dates and Duration
UNIQLO’s After Christmas Sale is expected to begin on December 25, 2024, and run through December 29, 2024, ending at 11:59 PM PST. The sale will likely be available both in stores and online.
Since this sale is a clearance event, all offers are valid while supplies last. Popular items and sizes may sell out quickly, so it’s a good idea to shop early, especially if you’re shopping online. If you’re planning to head to a UNIQLO store, keep in mind that availability and pricing may vary slightly between locations.
Discounts and Deals
During the End-Of-Season Sale, UNIQLO typically offers discounts of up to 50% off on hundreds of items. This includes everything from basics like T-shirts and socks to outerwear and winter essentials.
The discounts during this sale often surpass those seen during Black Friday and Cyber Monday, making it a prime opportunity for bargain hunters. However, it’s worth noting that some of the most deeply discounted items will likely be marked as final sale, meaning they cannot be returned or exchanged. Be sure to double-check the return policy on individual items before making your purchase.
What to Buy
UNIQLO is known for its high-quality yet affordable essentials, and the After Christmas Sale is an excellent time to stock up on staples for every season. Here’s a breakdown of categories worth exploring:
1. Winter Outerwear
If you’re in need of winter coats, jackets, or parkas, this is the sale to shop. UNIQLO often discounts their Ultra Light Down jackets and vests, which are lightweight yet warm and packable. These are versatile pieces that work well on their own or as layers. You might also find discounts on their HEATTECH-lined outerwear, designed to provide extra warmth without bulk.
2. HEATTECH Apparel
Speaking of HEATTECH, this thermal collection is one of UNIQLO’s standout lines, and the End-Of-Season Sale is the perfect time to grab these cold-weather staples. From long-sleeve tops and leggings to socks and gloves, HEATTECH items are designed to retain body heat and are ideal for layering. These are especially handy if you’re preparing for the colder months ahead.
3. Basics and Loungewear
UNIQLO is known for its everyday essentials, and the After Christmas Sale is a great chance to restock your wardrobe. Look for discounts on their Supima Cotton T-shirts, AIRism undergarments, and cozy loungewear sets. These items are comfortable, durable, and versatile—perfect for everything from casual outings to relaxing at home.
4. Denim and Pants
UNIQLO’s jeans and pants often go on sale during this event, including popular styles like their Ultra Stretch Jeans and Smart Ankle Pants. These are wardrobe staples that can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion.
5. Sweaters and Knitwear
As winter continues, sweaters are a must-have. Keep an eye out for cashmere and merino wool sweaters, which often see markdowns during the End-Of-Season Sale. These pieces combine warmth with a touch of elegance, making them perfect for both work and casual wear.
6. Accessories
Don’t overlook smaller items like socks, scarves, and gloves. These are usually discounted during the sale and can make great stocking stuffers or practical additions to your own wardrobe.
7. Kids’ and Baby Clothes
If you’re shopping for children, UNIQLO’s kids’ and baby collections are worth exploring. From HEATTECH layers to everyday essentials, these items are comfortable, durable, and perfect for active little ones.
Shopping Tips
To make the most of UNIQLO’s After Christmas Sale, here are a few tips to keep in mind:
1. Shop Early
Popular sizes and colors tend to sell out quickly, especially for staple items like HEATTECH and outerwear. If there’s something specific you’re looking for, plan to shop as soon as the sale begins on December 25.
2. Check for Final Sale Items
While some of the best discounts will be on final sale items, keep in mind that these cannot be returned or exchanged. Be sure to review product details and sizing information carefully before making a purchase.
3. Compare In-Store and Online Availability
UNIQLO’s website often has a larger selection than individual stores, but if you prefer to shop in person, it’s worth checking out your local location. Availability may vary, so it’s a good idea to call ahead if you’re looking for something specific.
4. Layer Discounts
UNIQLO occasionally offers additional discounts during their sales, such as extra markdowns on select items or free shipping on orders over a certain amount. Keep an eye out for these promotions to maximize your savings.
5. Sign Up for Emails
