Spring clearance is in full swing. Right now, Closetta is tracking over 20 brands actively running sales in Canada. But not all sales are equal — some of these are deep, genuinely rare events. Others are these brands' normal state of affairs.
Here's the full ranked list, with historical context for each.
Tier 1: Deep Deals Worth Acting On
Ardene — Up to 70% Off
Ardene sits at 70% off — the deepest discount in our active sales right now. They first appeared in our April data at 70%, and they've maintained it into May. Budget-friendly fashion and accessories at 70% off is legitimately good, even if Ardene isn't a premium brand.
Historical max: 70% (April–May) — currently at their ceiling.
Simons — Up to 70% Off (Last Chance Sale)
Simons' "Last Chance" sale has been running since January at 70% off. If you haven't checked it, you should — Simons is a genuine Canadian department store with a wide range of brands and private-label pieces. 70% off on Simons is rare and meaningful.
Historical note: This is the only month we've tracked Simons at this discount level. Act accordingly.
Gap — 40–60% Off New Favorites Sale
Gap has been at 60% off in every month of 2026. The current "New Favorites Sale" is fully in line with their pattern. 60% off Gap is available reliably, but it's still a strong discount on a useful basics brand.
Historical max: 60% — currently at their ceiling.
Old Navy — 60% Off (Victoria Day)
Old Navy was the most extreme outlier in our data: 80% off in April. The current 60% is a step down but still their second-highest recorded discount. If you missed April, this is the next best window.
Historical peak: 80% (April) — currently at 60%, still strong.
American Eagle — 50% Off Clearance (New as of May 16)
American Eagle launched a new clearance event yesterday. They've been running 25–50% off all year, so 50% is at the top of their range. Clearance events mean final sizes and styles — move early for the best selection.
Historical range: 25–50% — currently at their ceiling.
Tier 2: Good Deals for Specific Categories
Calvin Klein — Up to 50% Off Sitewide (Ends May 19)
Calvin Klein averaged 60–70% from February through April, so the current 50% is slightly below their typical depth. But 50% off sitewide Calvin Klein — denim, bags, shoes, underwear — is still worthwhile, especially with the sale ending in two days.
Historical peak: 70% (Feb–Apr) — currently slightly below peak, ends tomorrow.
Marc Jacobs — Up to 50% Off
Marc Jacobs showed up in our data in February at 20% and now sits at 50%. This is a meaningful jump and their highest tracked discount. If you've been watching a Marc Jacobs bag or accessory, this is the deepest it's been in our data.
Historical peak: 50% (May) — currently at their maximum.
Aldo — 40–60% Off Clearance
Aldo has been 50–60% off most of the year. They're in clearance mode now at 40–60%, which puts them right in their normal range. Good for shoes and bags — consistent value.
Historical range: 50–60% — currently in line with history.
Eddie Bauer — Up to 50% Off Clearance
Eddie Bauer has been running 40–50% off clearance since February. They're one of the more consistent sale brands in our database for outdoor and casual wear. Current 50% matches their peak.
Historical range: 40–50% — currently at their ceiling.
Tommy Hilfiger — 40% Off Sitewide (Until May 25)
Tommy has been 40–60% off since January. Current 40% is on the lower end of their range. If you can wait until May 25, they may run a deeper event — or grab what you need now.
Historical range: 40–60% — currently at the floor of their range.
Tier 3: Active But Shallow (Compare Before You Buy)
Herschel — Up to 40% Off
Herschel has ranged from 20–40% off all year. The current 40% is their maximum, which makes this a reasonable moment for bags and accessories. Not a clearance blowout, but at their best discount level.
Historical range: 20–40% — currently at ceiling.
Puma — Up to 40% Off Sitewide
Puma peaked at 50% in February and March. The current 40% is a step down but still meaningful for activewear. Good if you need Puma; not urgent if you can wait for another 50% window.
Historical range: 20–50% — currently slightly below peak.
Vans — Up to 40% Off Victoria Day (Ends May 18)
Vans at 40% matches their best recorded discount in our data. Worth acting on if you want Vans shoes or apparel — this sale ends tomorrow.
Historical range: 30–40% — currently at their ceiling, ends May 18.
Rudsak — Up to 40% Off Spring Event
Rudsak, the Canadian outerwear brand, peaked at 50% in February and March. The current 40% spring event is good but not their deepest. Worth it for iconic Canadian jackets at a meaningful price reduction.
Historical range: 15–50% — currently solid but not peak.
Reebok — 30% Off Long Weekend Sale (New)
Reebok just started a new long weekend sale. They peaked at 50% in February and March — the current 30% is below that. Fine for basics; wait if you want the deeper event to return.
Historical range: 20–50% — currently below peak.
Michael Kors — 25% Off Victoria Day (Ends May 18)
Michael Kors has held steady at 25% all year. Nothing surprising — this is their consistent level. Fine for MK bags and accessories if you've been watching something.
Historical range: 25% — consistent, ends May 18.
Bikini Village — Up to 50% Off Sitewide
Bikini Village has been at 50% off every single month of 2026. This is their standard operating mode — good to know if you need swimwear, but there's no urgency since this level is always available.
Historical: 50% every month — no urgency, this is their baseline.
Columbia — 25% Off Victoria Day (Ends ~May 18)
Columbia hit 40% in January. The current 25% is their lowest level this year. Fine for the specific thing you need, but January is the better window for Columbia.
Historical range: 25–40% — currently at their floor.
The North Face — Up to 25% Off Victoria Day (Ends May 18)
The North Face at 25% is their second-shallowest level of the year after their 30% in February. They peaked at 65% in March. If you need North Face gear, March is the annual window to plan around — not this weekend.
Historical range: 25–65% — currently at their floor.
New Balance — Up to 25% Off (Ends May 18)
New Balance is new to our tracking data. 25% is their first recorded discount. Useful for footwear but nothing to go out of your way for.
Historical: first appearance — no comparison point.
