While I hardly need an excuse to shop (it is my job, after all), Presidents Day is as good as any. The holiday weekend is known for its impressive sales, and this year is no exception — especially at Nordstrom.
The luxury retailer is discounting comfy clothing, luggage, travel accessories, and more across its entire site. Shoppers can score deals up to 64 percent off popular brands, like Tumi, Adidas, Hoka, Vuori, and more. And while we’ve got our eyes on more than a few finds, Barbour’s 60-percent-off quilted jacket, this $151-off Tumi 22-inch carry-on, and Levi’s on-sale teddy coat that’s “like wearing a giant hug,” are at the top of our list. Ahead, you’ll find more sales that are perfect for upcoming spring travel.
