The Best Cyber Monday Running Shoe Deals Still Happening
Are your favorite pair of running shoes looking a little tired these days? You’re in luck: ‘Tis the season to score deals on a new pair of kicks.
If you're looking to replace your running shoes or buy a new pair for a friend or family member for the holidays, now is a great time to do so. Cyber Monday may be over, but a number of sales are still available.
The Expert: I became a runner in middle school and have covered running and outdoor gear for years, both on-staff at Runner’s World and as a freelance journalist. Running shoes is the category of gear I’ve written about the most, and I have firsthand experience with models from a range of brands. To write articles like this, I research the running shoe market, consult RW reviews and tester feedback, and draw on my own experience with the running shoe industry. With input from RW editors, I combine all that info to choose what shoes make it onto this page.
There are lots of Cyber Monday running shoe deals available on top-shelf shoes from a range of brands, including Nike, Hoka, Reebok, and Inov-8, and at many different retailers, like Amazon, Walmart, Zappos, and more. The discounts vary, but many shoes have significant price cuts—some up to 50 percent. Better yet, there’s a great variety of shoes on offer, so whether you’re a trail runner or a track junkie, there’s a pair (or several) that’ll suit your needs.
How We Evaluated
The models below represent the best Cyber Monday running shoe deals available now. To recommend them, I scoured online retailers like Amazon, Zappos, and Walmart, as well as shoe brand websites, to find the latest deals. Using RW reviews, RW editor feedback, and my own knowledge and experience with running and the running shoe market, I focused on only high-quality performance shoes that meet the needs of runners (you won’t find any casual pairs on this list). This list features a variety of models that’ll suit different running styles and preferences—support shoes, trail shoes, etc.—and includes links to full reviews when available.

Traditional support shoes have a reputation for being a bit clunky, but the Cloudflyer, which features On’s trademark CloudTec pods with Helion foam, is anything but traditional. The unique cushioning system creates a soft feel, and it’s paired with a stability tube, a wide outsole, and a heel clip for extra support that won’t weigh you down.

Adidas Ultraboost 22
Cushioned, bouncy, grippy—there’s a lot to like about the Ultraboost 22. The latest version features a stiffer torsion system in the sole for increased responsiveness, and women’s sizes are made with a redesigned last for an improved fit on female feet. The Boost midsole offers dependable cushioning, and the full Continental rubber outsole gives this shoe good durability and traction, too.

Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 39
Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 39
The Pegasus needs no introduction: This reliable trainer has been a top pick for decades, and it’s one of RW’s favorite Nike shoes. The latest version features a more lightweight upper compared to the 38, and it now features Zoom Air units at the forefoot and the heel for even more responsiveness.

Nike ZoomX Vaporfly NEXT% 2
Nike ZoomX Vaporfly NEXT% 2
Training for a 10K or a marathon? Consider lacing up the Vaporfly NEXT% 2 on race day. Although not quite as radical as the Alphafly, Nike’s elite racer, the Vaporfly features the brand’s cutting-edge ZoomX foam, a full-length carbon fiber plate in the midsole, and a minimalist, breezy upper. The result is a lightweight, cushioned, highly responsive ride—exactly what you need to set a new PR.

Hoka Bondi 7
For runners who prize a soft, pillowy feel in their shoes, Hoka is always a safe bet, and the Bondi is the epitome of the brand’s maximalist approach to shoe design. (Hoka has also released the Bondi 8, but the 7 is still plenty capable.) The Bondi is the brand’s most cushioned shoe, and it features a hefty, full-length slice of EVA foam for a plush ride that, in the words of one tester, feels like “running on clouds.”

Brooks Revel 5
Quality running shoes are rarely this cheap. The Revel is already a bargain with its normal $100 price tag, but it’s even more of a deal now that it’s on sale. One of our favorites from Brooks, it’s a lightweight trainer with a breathable mesh upper and plenty of energy return thanks to its springy BioMoGo DNA cushioning—a great pick for speedwork.

Hoka Challenger ATR 6
Need a shoe that can handle a variety of surfaces? Consider Hoka’s Challenger ATR 6. With its somewhat firm EVA cushioning and small 4mm outsole lugs, it occupies the versatile middle ground between trail and road shoes—and works well on the trail and pavement alike. Testers also loved its comfortable fit and generous toe box.

Asics Gel-Kayano 28
Asics Gel-Kayano 28
Like the Pegasus above, the Gel-Kayano is a tried-and-true model with decades of history behind it. Designed for both neutral runners and overpronators, it offers a combo of support tech, like a dual-density midsole and a medial plate, with plenty of cushioning, including Gel pods at the heel and forefoot.

Nike Wildhorse 7
Nike Wildhorse 7
The Wildhorse offers reliable grip and a pleasantly cushioned ride, and it’s a great all-around trail shoe. The midsole’s React foam provides a soft feel and soaks up impact forces, and the outsole is made of durable high-abrasion rubber with widely spaced lugs for plenty of bite. I own a pair and love them for trail running and hiking; their traction is excellent and the wide toe box and cushioning make them very comfy.

| Drop | 8 mm |
On gym days, trade your running shoes for the Nano X2, Reebok’s esteemed cross-trainer. With its wide toe box, nearly flat rubber outsole, heel clip, and firm ride, it’s designed to give you a solid base for all kinds of workouts. When you need stable footing and a good feel for the ground, this is the shoe to reach for.

inov 8 Trailfly G 270 Men's
The Trailfly G 270 is one of the best shoes Inov-8 makes. It’s a rugged, highly durable trail shoe designed to meet the needs of ultrarunners. The latest version features an improved midsole for a softer, bouncier ride and a new upper for a better fit. The outsole utilizes Inov-8’s proprietary graphene rubber compound, which creates exceptional grip and stands up to serious abuse.
| Weight | 9.5 oz (M & W) |

New Balance Fresh Foam X 860v12
New Balance Fresh Foam X 860v12
Unlike the Gel-Kayano above, the 860v12 is aimed squarely at overpronators. The shoe features a medial post in the midsole and an Ultra Heel to support your feet and keep them in place; embroidery and a double knit construction on the upper add even more support. The 860’s medial post creates a firm ride, but testers appreciated the shoe’s wide toe box and accommodating fit.
