What's actually marked down right now
Arbana tracks discounted stock across more than a thousand independent online stores, and re-checks it daily. That means we can answer a question most "best sales" lists only guess at: which brands are genuinely, deeply marked down today — not which brands pay to be featured.
Below are the 20 brands with the deepest average markdowns on Arbana as of July 2026, ranked by the average discount across every discounted listing we can find. Together they account for 3,785 discounted items, averaging 55% off. Calvin Klein currently leads at 68% off across 373 items.

Every brand above links to its live page, where the listings update daily and are sorted deepest-discount-first — so what you see there is current, not a snapshot from whenever this was written.
Designer names taking the biggest cuts
The headline of this list is that recognisable, full-price-on-the-high-street labels are sitting at markdowns you'd normally only see on end-of-line stock. Calvin Klein deals averages 68% off across 373 items; Tommy Hilfiger deals averages 66% off across 210 items; Guess deals averages 60% off across 126 items; Theory deals averages 57% off across 188 items; 143 Story deals averages 56% off across 83 items; Sanctuary deals averages 55% off across 103 items.
These are not clearance-only brands — they're labels whose regular pricing sits well above what independent stores are currently asking once the markdown is applied. Because each listing links straight to the store that owns the stock, the price you see is the price that store is charging, not an estimate.
Where the prices actually start
Average discount and low price aren't the same story. A brand can be 60% off and still cost $200. These are the labels on the list where discounted stock genuinely starts in single digits: Calvin Klein deals (from $10), 143 Story deals (from $5), Milk & Honey deals (from $6), Heyson deals (from $5), Nia deals (from $10) and Stylive deals (from $7).
If you're shopping by budget rather than by label, those are the pages worth opening first — the markdown depth and the entry price line up.
How we work this out
Every figure on this page is computed from Arbana's live index, not sourced from a press release. We crawl the sale sections of the independent stores we track, record each item's own regular price and current sale price, and derive the discount from the two. A brand only appears above if we currently see at least 15 discounted listings for it — enough that the average means something rather than reflecting one heavily-cut item.
Two caveats worth stating plainly. Prices and stock are set by each individual store and change constantly, so a deal can disappear before you reach it — the deepest markdowns are usually the ones running out of sizes. And a large average discount tells you how far prices have moved from the store's own regular price; it doesn't by itself tell you the item is cheap. Both numbers are on the table above for exactly that reason.
How buying works
Arbana is a deal finder, not a store. We don't hold stock, set prices, or take a cut of what you pay. Each listing carries the seller's own price and links straight through to that store, where you check out and they ship your order — so you get the breadth of a marketplace while still buying from the original independent shop.
