When it comes to running shoes, I’m no amateur. With six marathons and ten years of running under my belt, plus seven years as a gear and fitness editor, I know ball, as the kids say (I think they say that, anyway).
All those miles have taught me something important—timing matters when shopping for running shoes. If you’re eyeing a new pair (or three), Cyber Monday is prime time to shop. Many of the best running shoe sales are on last season’s models, shoes that brands have since updated with new colorways, slight tweaks, or buzzier marketing. But here’s the thing: older doesn’t equal obsolete. Just ask the runners on Reddit still debating whether the Hoka Bondi 8 or 9 reigns supreme.
To help you shop Cyber Monday running shoe deals, I dug into my gear closet and pulled out everything I’ve tested and genuinely loved over the past year or two. Then, I cross-checked my shoe pile with what’s on sale. The result? An exhaustive list of every single on-sale running shoe I’d personally vouch for and would buy again (including a ton of my favorite racing shoes). Thank me later.
