Spring is finally here and it’s time to kick out the cobwebs and hit the open roads once again. While your tried and true running shoes may have worked just fine for the cold winter months on the treadmill, it’s time to invest in a new pair as the weather warms up.
While there isn’t a specific holiday weekend or special shopping event, there are tons of great deals on running shoes throughout March. In fact, several pairs of sneakers are currently on sale for more than 40 percent off their original listed price. These include models from popular brands like Altra, Brooks, Saucony, and Hoka.
The shoes on this list are not just included because of their discounted price tag. Nearly every shoe on this list is one our Runner’s World team has tested and reviewed. So, no matter which pair you grab, you can rest easy knowing it has the stamp of approval from our testers.
