Forget Prime Day — You can still save on these 21 running shoe deals on Brooks, Skechers, Asics and more at Amazon
Prime Day may be over, but you can still find plenty of great running shoe deals on Amazon hanging around. Some of our favorite pairs are seeing stellar discounts right now, but you'll have to run, not walk, to snag these deals before they're gone. I'm talking Skechers deals from $13, Brooks for under $100, and up to 30% off the best running shoes from Asics. Amazon is one of my favorite places to go for Skechers deals, and while it's hard to pick just one, I highly recommend the Skechers Go Run Elevate 2.0 on sale from $43 at Amazon. In our Skechers Go Run Elevate 2.0 review, we praised their bouncy and comfortable feel underfoot and called them a great pair for beginner runners. I'm more of an Asics girlie myself, so my top pick is the Asics Novablast 4 on sale from $99. It's bouncy and lively enough to help you pick up the pace on your tempo runs and speed sessions, while still being cushioned and comfortable on long runs and easy days. Just keep in mind that the prices vary based on your choice of size and color, so check out the different color options in your size to score the best deals. For more savings, see our Amazon promo codes coverage. Score these comfortable Skechers sneakers starting from $14. They feature a Skechers memory foam footbed and come in four stylish color options. Reviewers on Amazon say these are sturdy and fit true to size. The Skechers Tantric are on sale for a super-cheap price, although the discount doesn't apply to all sizes and colors. These are super comfortable to wear thanks to their soft perforated footbed and canvas strap. These creatively-named Skechers wedges are on sale for a steal in certain sizes and colors! These sandals are super comfortable to wear thanks to their stretchy strap and Memory Foam footbed. I love the color option with the sparkly jewels on the strap! Score a great deal on these Skechers Nampa Groton. These simple shoes look smart and have a super comfortable Skechers Memory Foam footbed. They're also slip resistant, making them a solid choice for work days. Looking to save on a comfortable and secure sandal now that the season's winding down? You can't go wrong with this Skechers slide sandal that features a lightweight upper with adjustable buckle straps, a contoured cushioned footbed and podiatrist-certified arch support. These are the best Skechers slip-ins we've tested, so they're the ones to get if you want a super easy way to put your shoes on. They're lightweight, stretchy and breathable. In our Skechers Slip Ins Dazzling Haze review, we said they're perfect for low-impact activities like walking, light resistance training and dance cardio. If you prefer the classic slip-on look, the Go-Walk 5 Skechers have a soft, breathable, knitted upper that is comfortable across the top of your foot, whether you're wearing socks or not. They are machine washable, comfortable underfoot, and by design, extremely easy to slip on and off. These Skechers loafers are both smart and comfortable. They blend in well everywhere, from the office to the beach! With air-cooled memory foam underfoot and a stretch knit upper, your feet will be supported, and there's no chance of blisters. These Skechers sandals are the perfect summer shoe. They have Skechers' iconic comfortable midsole, paired with breathable, adjustable straps for a supportive fit, wherever you're walking this summer. They are vegan, and machine washable, with one customer writing, "Most comfortable sandals that I have ever bought. Bought one pair a year ago and had to buy another one this year cause they were that good." Now is a great time to buy, as the shoes are discounted in the two most popular colors: sand and black. If you're hitting the road, these Skechers are an excellent choice. Our Skechers Go Run Elevate 2.0 review said that these are great for beginner runners thanks to their affordable price point, bouncy and propulsive soles and breathable design. We rank these shoes as the best Skechers for novice runners. These extremely light and breathable shoes are supportive, durable and come in at an affordable price point. However, we noted in our Skechers Go Run Lite review that you'll eventually want to upgrade to a shoe that is engineered for running longer distances if you do get serious about the sport. Did you know Skechers also makes running shoes? If you're obsessed with the soft cushioned comfort of Skechers, but want to run in them too, give these a try. This Tom's Guide staffer recently tested them and wrote, "I didn't know that I was missing a whole other level of comfort until I tested the Skechers Max Cushioning Elite 2.0. They are so comfortable to wear even just for walking around, but when I took them on a run for the first time I set a new PR for my 3-mile run." The Novablast 4 is on sale! Cycle through the different options to find the best deal in your size. My colleague runs marathons pretty much for a living, and it's one of her favorite pairs of Asics shoes. The Gel Venture 10 is a waterproof trail running shoe that comes in 11 different color options and is Amazon's #1 bestseller. We price-checked against Asics, and although they are running a sale, this is the lowest price available. Although a fairly modest discount, this shoe is currently at its lowest price in 30 days. It's regarded as a comfy and versatile sneaker that suits neutral runners in particular. Not fussed about the 26? I've had this running shoe for a few years, and I still trot out the 10Ks in them. They're so breathable and comfortable, and I feel like I'm basically running on teeny tiny puffy clouds. Plus, I quite like the slightly garish bold color pops. The Gel Cumulus 26 isn't the latest in the Gel Cumulus range, thanks to the Gel Cumulus 27, but this is a handsome deal to snap up if you don't care about having the latest shoe. It also saves you a lot of money, given that we only rated the 27 with 3 stars, and this one is far more worth the money. I personally love and still run in the Gel Nimbus range, and a 31% saving on the Gel Nimbus 26 is an absolute steal. Plenty of lightweight cushioning and a breathable upper make this the perfect shoe for longer miles, in my opinion. We're huge fans of the Gel Kayano 31 at TG. A generous slice of cushioning in the midsole and rearfoot PureGEL technology for a softer, bouncier ride. What's not to love? Right now, the men's Brooks Ghost 16 in this grey colorway is down to $99 in the Prime Day sale. You'll have to cycle through the different options to find the best deal for you in your size. The Brooks Ghost 16 is also on sale in the women's shoe at $99. Again, you'll have to look through the different colors to find the best deal in your size.

Forget Prime Day — I review running shoes for a living, and my favorite Asics sneaker is still on sale
I test running shoes for a living, so it's rare that I get a chance to revisit old shoes. Yet despite the influx of new shoes through my door each week, some remain firm favorites, and one of these pairs is the Asics Novablast 4, which is currently on sale for $99 on Amazon. That's the lowest price in 30 days, and a saving of nearly 30%! The shoes are a fantastic, comfortable everyday running shoe, with a great amount of versatility. This shoe can pick up the pace when you need it to, and has a decent amount of responsiveness underfoot. Plus, for less than $100, now is a great time to buy. The Novablast 4 is on sale in several different sizes and colors right now on Amazon. You'll need to cycle through the different options to find the best deal in your size. The men's Asics Novablast 4 is also discounted to $99 right now. If you're looking to buy one running shoe that'll cope with all of the different runs on your training plan, the Asics Novablast 4 is a good place to start. It's bouncy and lively enough to help you pick up the pace on your tempo runs and speed sessions, while still being cushioned and comfortable on long runs and easy days. I've run over 100 miles in this shoe, and it's still one I reach for when I'm heading out for a long run. I've run over 100 miles in this shoe, and it's still one I reach for when I'm heading out for a long run. The shoe has Asics' FlyteFoam Blast+ foam in the midsole, and while it doesn't have the same sink-in comfort as shoes like the Asics Gel Cumulus 27, this isn't a bad thing. It's bouncy, responsive, and the slightly firmer midsole gives the shoe a lot more versatility. The shoe has since been replaced with the Asics Novablast 5, but don't let this deter you. Asics didn't change much between the two models, so you're better off saving money right now and buying the Novablast 4. I definitely would! On the design front, the shoe looks amazing, and right now it's discounted in a bunch of different colors to suit every style. The shoe dropped to $99 in the Amazon Prime Day sales, and it's amazing that it's stayed at this all-time low!

Time is running out! — 7 Prime Day running shoe deals worth sprinting for from Nike, Asics, Merrell and more
Amazon Prime Day ain't over yet. In fact, you can score a pair of super-fresh, TG staff-approved running sneakers for as low as $48 right now, but you'll need to be quick. This isn't a marathon, but rather a sprint. The best bargain is on Merrell Morphlite Trail Shoes for 52% off, bringing the cost down to under $50. That's not all: The ultra-cushioned and breathable Nike Invincible 3 is reduced by 39% and Asics Novablast 4 shoes are just $99. As always, find direct links and details on these deals and more below. Of all the high-tech sneakers we've tested, the Merrell Morphlite is the best value trail running shoe available today, especially when it's more than 50% off. Why? In our review, we found it light, comfy, responsive, and durable. What more could you ask for? This deal is nothing short of ludicrous. No, not the rapper, though I'm sure he'd find this pair of high-tech and eye-catching dragon-themed running sneakers fly enough for his feet. At nearly 60% off, you can too, without breaking a Benjamin. I prefer trail running to sidewalk and street running, and of all the brands I've tested while trekking through the Northwest Cascade Mountains, Merrell makes what I'd consider to be the best non-hiking-boot footwear, including the Agility Peak 5. However, if you have a little more cash, go for the Gore-Tex version (the bottom deal on the page) instead. The Asics Novablast 4 is a well-cushioned daily trainer, perfect for everything from weekly runs to gym outings to trips to the grocery store. Choose from a solid selection of styles, including this loud but fun lime green color option. You don't need to be a rebel, nor must you lack a "cause" to take advantage of this 29% off deal on one of our favorite versatile and stable sneaker options for daily runners. The New Balance FuelCell Rebel V4 checks all the boxes when it comes to a high-performing running shoe; it also doesn't look half bad. I'm pretty sure these are the Dunks Superman would rock if he were a run-club-joining, sneaker-head-type. You want maximum cushion? You got maximum cushioning! Also important: the Nike Invincible 3 sneakers are seriously fly; choose from a wide selection of discounted styles, including my favorite option, shown here. These have been my go-to sneakers for the past 12-plus months, whether I'm exploring the streets of rainy Seattle, Washington, hitting the mountain trails just outside of city limits, or getting on a plane to check out somewhere new, these grippy, comfortable, breathable and waterproof shoes have yet to let me down.

I'm a marathoner who tests running gear for a living — these are the 15 Prime Day deals for runners I'd shop from $9
It's a great time to be a runner. Summer is here, and the days are longer and warmer, and if you need any new kit to help you get out there and run, the deals are coming thick and fast thanks to Amazon Prime Day. I've been testing and reviewing running shoes, watches, and all manner of other kit for the last decade, during which time I've also run 15 marathons using my favorite gear. Whenever a big sales event comes around, I always look for deals on my favorite gear, and I've picked out 15 of the best Prime Day deals for runners available right now below. The New Balance Rebel v4 is an exceptionally lightweight daily trainer that has enough cushioning and stability to be comfortable for your longest runs. The Rebel v5 recently launched, but having tested both the v4 and v5, I'd happily go for the older shoe given this discount. The Asics Novablast 4 is a max-cushioned daily trainer that provides a comfortable and smooth ride. It's perfect for new runners who need one shoe for everything, or for adding to a rotation to soak up your easy miles. I've tested the newer Asics Novablast 5, and it's not a major upgrade on the 4, so this deal is worth grabbing if you're picking between the two. Several colors of the Hoka Mach 6 are reduced in the Hoka sale right now, with one color of the men's shoe hitting $97. The Mach 6 is one of my favorite all-rounder running shoes, being cushioned enough for easy runs while also being lightweight and energetic enough for fast ones. I find you can never have too many running caps, and this lightweight number from Adidas will be a great addition to your collection if you snap it up at this reduced price. A variety of Balega's comfortable and durable running socks are reduced in the Prime Day sales, including some no-show socks if you prefer that style. I prefer to cover my ankle myself, and love the design of these light blue crew socks. Nike's own sale has a lot of great deals for runners right now, if you've struck out on Amazon itself. This lightweight running t-shirt wicks sweat and will keep you cool and comfortable on your runs. Garmin isn't the only game in town when it comes to running watches, and the Suunto Race S is a great value alternative even at full price, so to get it for just $279 in the sales is a big win. It's an AMOLED watch with accurate dual-band GPS tracking and offline maps. The Forerunner 955 is an older watch and you never have to pay full price for it anymore, but this discount brings it down to its lowest ever price. It still has top-notch sports tracking, training analysis and navigation features, and given the high price of the latest top Garmin watches like the Forerunner 970, this deals offers a lot of value. Since being superseded by the Garmin Fenix 8, the Fenix 7 Pro series has been a regular in sales, but this $400 saving on the largest 7X model in the range is a huge discount worth considering if you need a rugged adventure watch with incredible battery life to track your activities. This deal brings the 51mm model of the Epix Pro AMOLED sports watch down to its lowest ever price. It's a watch I wore myself for a year, and it never let me down when training for and running marathons. The screen is an upgrade on the Fenix 7 Pro's memory-in-pixel display, and the 10-day battery life is still impressive on the 51mm Epix Pro. I recently reviewed the JBL Endurance Race 2, and I found it great value at its full price of $79, so getting a $20 discount on that price is a bonus. They're in-ear buds with wings that offer a secure fit on the run, and good sound quality and battery life as well. The Shokz OpenRun Pro 2 are the best bone conduction headphones available for runners, offering significantly better sound quality than you typically get with open headphones. The whole Shokz range is reduced in the Prime Day sales so you can find cheaper options like the OpenRun 2, but the OpenRun Pro 2 are worth the extra outlay if you can afford them. All four colors of the Beats Powerbeats Pro 2 are reduced to their lowest ever price on Amazon right now. They offer a comfortable and very secure fit for sports thanks to the earhook design. They also have long battery life and button controls you can use even with sweaty or gloved hands, plus great sound quality and ANC. I use these high-salt tabs in the morning before every marathon I run, and regularly throughout the hotter months. You need the sodium they contain to replace what you lose in sweat on the run, so you can stay hydrated. This is the highest dose of sodium available in a tablet in Precision Fuel & Hydration's range, so it's great for those who sweat more than average or have especially salty sweat. Mix this powder with water to create your own high-carb energy drink. I've tried a lot of different sports drinks and Tailwind's taste the best, especially the special edition Dauwaltermelon flavor, which is inspired by ultramarathon superstar Courtney Dauwalter.
