It’s that time of year! Every August, several states across the U.S. dedicate an entire weekend to tax free shopping! For those of you in Oklahoma, the annual sales tax holiday is this coming weekend, August 3 – 5. Retailers are required to participate and may not collect state and local sales or use tax on most footwear and clothing that are sold for less than $100 during the holiday.

Athletic shoes/clothing are not exempt from tax, neither are accessories, electronics or school supplies. However, there are still many items you can grab this weekend without having to pay tax.

The Oklahoma Tax Commission lists the following clothing items as tax exempt:

- Aprons, household and shop
- Athletic supporters
- Baby receiving blankets
- Bathing suits and caps
- Beach capes and coats
- Belts and suspenders
- Boots
- Coats and jackets
- Costumes
- Diapers, children and adult, including disposable diapers
- Ear muffs
- Footlets
- Formal wear
- Garters and garter belts
- Girdles
- Gloves and mittens for general use
- Hats and caps
- Hosiery
- Insoles for shoes
- Lab coats
- Neckties
- Overshoes
- Pantyhose
- Rainwear
- Rubber pants
- Sandals
- Scarves
- Shoes and shoe laces
- Slippers
- Sneakers
- Socks and stockings
- Steel toed shoes
- Underwear
- Uniforms, athletic and non-athletic
- Wedding apparel
