Best Prime Day sneaker deals

Under Armour Women’s Surge 3 Running Shoe

4.4-star average rating from 3,032 reviews on Amazon

Despite being a lightweight running shoe, this pair from Under Armour provides your foot with comfort and support as you move thanks to its cushioned ankle collar and midsole. The sneakers also have rubber pods on the outsole so that the shoe has less added weight while maintaining its durability, according to the brand.

New Balance Men’s 608 V5 Casual Comfort Cross Trainer

4.6-star average rating from 77,771 reviews on Amazon

These New Balance sneakers are great for walking and day-to-day activities. They have a cushioned compression-resistant midsole that absorbs impact, an internal midsole for structure and support and a foam collar to support ankles.

Brooks Women’s Adrenaline GTS 22

4.1-star average rating from 14,346 reviews on Amazon

These running shoes, which have the American Podiatric Medical Association’s Seal of Acceptance, keep the middle of the sneaker cushioned so when your feet hit the ground there’s smooth movement from heel to toe, according to the brand. When ordering, consider sizing up 1/2 to one size larger than you normally would, according to Brooks.

Reebok Unisex Adult Nano X3 Sneaker

4.6-star average rating from 77,771 reviews on Amazon

Reviewers say these training shoes find the right balance between cushion and stability. They give your foot a comfortable and flat base that’s supportive when cross-training, lifting and doing HIIT workouts. The heel compresses when you’re lifting, creating a stable platform, but if you’re running or pushing off in any manner, it softens, according to the brand.  

Adidas Men’s Ultraboost 5.0 DNA

4.5-star average rating from 250 reviews on Amazon

Lowest price ever

These stretchy and supportive shoes are great for those who want a walking/running shoe with a soft cushion and flexible exterior and interior. The rubber outsole has traction suitable for all conditions so that you can wear these on wet and dry surfaces. This Ultraboost style is available in both men’s and women’s sizing. 

Saucony Women’s Echelon 9 Running Shoe

4.5-star average rating from 149 reviews on Amazon

Lowest price ever

If you prefer lots of cushioning for your sneakers, consider these Saucony running shoes, which have the American Podiatric Medical Association’s Seal of Acceptance. This pair has thick yet lightweight foam cushioning, increased toe spring and heel beveling, a removable sock liner and a durable rubber outsole.

Peloton Altos Cycling Shoes

4.3-star average rating from 640 reviews on Amazon

If you have a Peloton bike at home, consider these compatible shoes that help you quickly clip on and off from your pedals. Not only are these easy to take on and off, these sock-like cycling shoes are comfortable and breathable with their mesh material. They run true to size and are especially good for narrow to normal feet, according to the brand.

TSLA Men’s Trail Running Shoes

4-star average rating from 2,511 reviews on Amazon

These sneakers are great for outdoor runs because they have a dirt-resistant upper to keep them clean, a nonslip grip and shock absorption benefits that reduce stress on your joints. Unlike other trail running shoes, they have a more flexible sole that’s also handy when traveling since you can fold them easily when packing.

Adidas Women’s Cloudfoam

4.4-star average rating from 4,536 reviews on Amazon

These Adidas Cloudfoam sneakers are one of my most used and durable pairs of shoes for daily and casual activities like walking around the city and amusement parks for hours at a time. I love wearing these women’s walking shoes because they’re stretchy, flexible and comfortable, and they have Cloudfoam and memory foam interior cushioning, so my feet still feel supported and never ache. 

Saucony Men’s Kinvara 14 Sneaker

4.2-star average rating from 428 reviews on Amazon

These un-plated, breathable men’s running shoes are one of the most lightweight options on this list. The sneakers have interior cushioning with an energy-return rebound, so you can propel yourself with ease and comfort and offer overall neutral support to your feet, according to the brand.  

Skechers Women’s Go Walk Joy Sneaker

4.5-star average rating from 89,463 reviews on Amazon

These laceless sneakers are great for walking since they have a sleek appearance and are comfortable, lightweight and breathable. Reviewers say they enjoy how easy it is to slip on and off and love that they’re easy to care for since the shoes are machine washable.

New Balance Men’s 877 V1 Walking Shoe

4.4-star average rating from 10,196 reviews on Amazon

These shoes are great for short and long-distance walks on all surfaces, from sidewalks to trails. Reviewers say the cushioning on these sneakers helps lessen the impact when walking but aren’t too cushiony, so they can still give the stability needed when moving. They also say this pair is especially great for those with wide feet.  

Mishansha Women’s Air Cushion Sneakers

4.1-star average rating from 14,346 reviews on Amazon

These breathable, shock-absorbent sneakers come with removable arch support insoles to help maintain foot positioning, reduce pain and provide support, according to the brand. Reviewers say these sneakers are one of the most comfortable pairs of shoes they own and are great for daily errands, gym workouts and long runs.
