Summer brings with it near-perfect strolling weather, but you’ll need a plush pair of shoes to make the most of longer days and sunny skies. Luckily, we’ve found some great early Amazon Prime Day sneaker deals to browse if you’re in need of a little footwear refresh. There are already discounts as big as 52% on pairs from tried-and-true brands like Saucony, Asics, Brooks, and more. We’ve spotted savings on supportive walking shoes, bouncy running shoes, and rugged trail runners—meaning however you like to get outside during the warmer months, you can do so in some nice new kicks.
The retailer’s two-day shopping event officially starts on July 16 and runs through July 17, and you’ll need to be an Amazon Prime member to take advantage of those big day-of markdowns. You can start a free trial membership at any time, and once you’re in, you’ll enjoy free shipping on top of Prime Day access. Make sure to mark your calendar—but don’t sleep on these early sales while they’re still in stock.
The best Amazon Prime Day sneaker deals we’ve found so far
More discounts will almost definitely come up as we get closer to July 16, but these early deals are worth snagging right now. Whether you’re looking for cushy road-running shoes, sleek cross trainers, or a goes-with-anything pair of white sneakers, you can save big while checking off your wish list.

Saucony
Ride 16 Sneaker
This writer is a huge fan of Saucony’s foam-laden Ride line for leisurely jogs, elliptical sessions, and long walks around the city. In my experience, it only gets comfier with more wear.

Brooks
Ghost 15 Neutral Running Shoe
The ever-popular Ghost 15 won a Sneaker Award last year for its ultrasmooth, lightweight feel—but it’s also supportive and comfortable enough to be a top pick among podiatrists for people with plantar fasciitis.

Tokyo
Podiatrists love Vionic’s walking shoes for their high level of arch support and sturdy designs. We like their cool, normcore designs—and we flat-out adore them when they’re on sale.

Ryka
Devotion X Walking Shoe
Ryka already makes several pairs of excellent sneakers that clock in around $100. But right now, you can pick up some of the brand’s best models (like the Devotion X, which reviewers love for its roomy toe box) for even less.

New Balance
Fresh Foam X More Trail V3 Trail Running Shoe
Technical outdoor sneakers are usually pretty pricey, so if you’re thinking about hitting the trails this summer, here’s your chance to save. Our Sneaker Award tester loved how easy it was to transition from grass to dirt to gravel and back again in these trail running shoes from New Balance, noting that they always felt “in tune with the ground.”

Altra
Lone Peak 7 Trail Running Shoe
Speaking of major gear savings, Altra’s expert-recommended Lone Peak style is 40% off—which is the biggest discount we’ve seen from the brand in recent memory. It’s protective, grippy, and zero-drop (meaning there’s a consistent height between the heel and forefoot).

Cross-trainer deals

Reebok
Nano X3 Sneaker
Looking to save on an all-around great gym shoe? Go with the best-selling Nano X3 from Reebok. Our Sneaker Award tester found that it performed well during Crossfit, HIIT, and strength training sessions: “They weren’t heavy, and I felt like I could spring into an exercise very easily.”

New Balance
DynaSoft Nergize Sport V2 Cross Trainer
If you prefer a more cushioned cross-trainer, consider New Balance’s DynaSoft Nergize Sport sneaker, which is 20% off right now. It has a thicker foam sole than the Nano X3, making it especially well-suited to cardio workouts.

Adidas
Grand Court 2.0 Tennis Shoe
Adidas’s classic Grand Court sneakers basically never go out of style, so they’re arguably always worth the investment—but we won’t complain if we can get them at a solid discount.

Puma
Carina 2.0 Sneakers
Another retro-chic athleisure pick, the Carina 2.0 will look equally cute paired with a sundress or your go-to leggings.

Cole Haan
Grand Crosscourt II Sneaker
You can never have too many easy-to-wear, low-top sneaks, especially when they’re from a normally splurge-worthy brand like Cole Haan. The Grand Crosscourt is 33% off at the moment, which we’d say is a deal worth sprinting for.
