Sale Radar: Athleta Went to 40% Off and J.Crew Restocked

Athleta's tall sale widened from about 40% of the store to almost 70% in six days, and the 40% band now covers the fall collection. J.Crew put a batch of tall dresses back on the site. Old Navy and Gap held steady.

Most of Athleta’s tall range is 30% or 40% off

Athleta’s 30% off promotion has been landing on a different set of styles each week.

Almost 70% of Athleta’s tall styles are on sale, at either 30% or 40% off.

The fall collection is where that lands. Details in our Athleta report.

J.Crew restocked its tall dresses

J.Crew restocked a batch of tall dresses this week. Most are marked down between 55% and 75% off. Every one of them carries a review count, so these are styles J.Crew already sold coming back on restock rather than fresh product.

The catch is size. Most of the returning dresses came back with one or two sizes on the page. Details in our J.Crew report.

Old Navy jeans and sweatshirts at half off

Tall jeans sit at a 50% typical discount with most of the category marked down, and sweatshirts are in the same place. More in our Old Navy report.

Almost all of Gap’s tall jeans are on sale

Almost 95% of Gap’s tall jeans are on sale, at a typical 40% off.

Almost every Gap tall jean is marked down. See what’s happening at Gap.

What this means for the next two weeks

The practical read: Athleta’s tall sale is the widest and deepest we have seen from them, and the flat 30% and 40% rates are the part with an expiry date, so buy the promo-priced fall pieces now and take your time with the standing clearance. At J.Crew, check the returning dresses in your size first, since most came back with only one or two sizes available.
