The sun is shining, May is coming to a close, and we’re tracking down the very best Memorial Day sneaker deals you can get your hands—er, feet—on right now. We found deep discounts on ultra-cushioned pairs from Hoka, stability shoes from Asics, casual picks from New Balance, and more.

But these stellar sales won’t last—the long weekend is almost over, and so are the savings. Snag ‘em while you can (before your faves go out of stock).

Want to finally try Hokas—a.k.a. the high stack sneaker you’ve been seeing everywhere? (Or maybe your current pair is a little worse for wear.) Either way, take advantage of these major sales and scoop them up.

If you’re not sure which shoe to get, we recommend the Clifton 9, especially if you’re looking for sturdy, cushy walking shoes. They’re also great for running or standing all day, Samantha Sklar, DPM, FACFAS, a podiatrist at Foot First Podiatry Centers in Illinois, previously told SELF. “We always start with the Clifton because it’s just a generally good shoe for most people,” she says.

Also marked down: The Arahi 7, a supportive stability shoe, and the Mach 6, a sleek racing sneak.

On’s Cloudmonster 2, an updated version of a SELF Sneaker Award winner, is a great option for everyday walks and runs. Our tester says their cushioned soles propel her forward, without being so plush that she feels unstable while running on trickier terrain.

Shop Asics deals

Asics is best known for its supportive running shoes, and a bunch are discounted right now. The Gel-Kayano 31 comes recommended by Laura Norris, CPT, an RRCA-certified run coach: “The [level of] support is ideal for runners who may overpronate—when your ankles roll in as you land—or who have low arches, but don’t want a traditional stability shoe that impacts their gait too much,” she told SELF.

But really, you can’t go wrong with any pair. While you browse, check out the Gel-Excite 10 (one of our favorite shoes for plantar fasciitis) and the Gel-Cumulus 26 (a plush running shoe that’s over 20% off right now).

Shop Brooks deals

As a Brooks fan myself, I can see why they get so much hype—I’ve walked for hours in my Brooks Ghost Max sneakers (and never had any hot spots or blisters).

SELF writer Lauren Wingenroth feels the same way about the Ghost 16: “Having run dozens of miles in them, I can attest that they live up to their name—I can almost forget they’re there, in a good way.” Caroline Bermel, product marketing specialist and head shoe tester at Fleet Feet, adds that it’s because these sneakers strike the perfect balance. “[They have] enough cushioning to provide support and impact absorption, but not too much where you can’t feel the ground,” she previously told SELF.

The best part? Both pairs are 20% off today, while the Glycerin 21 is discounted even more.

If you only think of leggings or belt bags when you think of Lululemon, allow us to enlighten you. The brand makes some top-notch running, training, and lifestyle shoes too.

Exhibit A: The 2024 Sneaker Award–winning Cityverse Sneakers are perfect for popping out for a coffee, taking your pup for a walk, or running some weekend errands. “These are the most comfortable athleisure shoes I’ve ever worn, and I’ve purchased a lot of different models,” one SELF tester says. “My feet are just so happy when I wear them!” Skeptical? See for yourself (for up to $59 less than usual).

Shop New Balance deals

Last year, I was searching for an everyday sneaker I could wear to work, brunch,and wherever else I’m going in NYC. I finally found what I was looking for in New Balance’s RC42 Sneaker. I love the neutral design, soft footbed, and slim silhouette.

If you ask me, New Balance is the queen of comfy, stylish lifestyle sneakers for days spent out and about. Other great contenders (that are also on sale for up to 40% off) include the casual-cool T500 Tennis Sneaker and the sleek, suede 574 Sneaker.

Shop Adidas deals

Adidas’s SL 72 OG Shoes caught our eyes when Kristen Bell wore them while filming Nobody Wants This. They’re super cute and come in cool colorways we want to get our hands on—especially now that they’re on sale. We’ve also spotted other Adidas markdowns, including the Ultraboost 1.0 Shoes, a lightweight, flexible walking sneaker with a stretchy, breathable upper (perfect for summer!).

Shop Nike deals

The 2024 Sneaker Award–winning Nike Pegasus 41 shoes will make runs breezier, even on sluggish days. “On the treadmill, these shoes felt nimble and supportive,” our tester says. “I also used them for some sprints—this is where they felt PERFECT. They were responsive, snappy, grippy, and snug enough that I didn’t need to think about whether or not my foot was steady when I pushed my pace.”

If you need a good pair of cross-training shoes, try Nike’s Metcon 9. They’ll keep you steady on your feet while you squat, lift, and stretch.
