It’s no secret that we here at Runner’s World are big fans of Hoka’s and New Balance’s running shoes. Both brands are particularly good at balancing comfort with performance, crafting running shoes that are ideal for daily training, taking on trails, and/or racing. And while most of our top picks from these brands tend to go for upwards of $120, we don’t necessarily mind paying that for quality running shoes. But we also won’t object to a sale either.
Luckily, that’s what’s happening right now. REI has been hosting quite a few sales recently, and among them is a sale on running shoes, which includes deals on over 15 Hoka and New Balance pairs. Many of these marked-down shoes are some of the best from each brand, especially if you’re looking for a shoe with some serious cushion. And better yet, they’re anywhere from 19 to 50 percent off.
Hoka Running Shoe Deals
On the Hoka side of things, our pick for best daily trainer—the Clifton 8—is 19 percent off for this ice blue and orange women’s shoe and this blue, black, and mint men’s shoe. The allure of the Clifton 8 is how sleek yet comfortable it is. Many reviewers commented as much, while also noting that these shoes in particular are good for long days and long distances. That said, a few mentioned how they prefer the Bondi model—another great running shoe from the brand.
More From Runner's World
While we prefer the Bondi 8 these days, we’ve also really enjoyed the Bondi 7 for its “cloud-like feel.” There are three versions of the Bondi 7 on sale at REI—one, a teal and red men’s shoe in size 14 for 50 percent off; another, a gray and white men’s shoe in size 10 wide for 50 percent off; and the third, a white men’s shoe with a gradient yellow to orange stripe available in sizes 9.5 to 14 for 19 percent off.
New Balance Running Shoe Deals
But of course, there are plenty of New Balance options on sale, as well. One of our favorite New Balance shoes for its top-notch cushioning, the Fresh Foam 1080 v11 is available in two colors (though very limited in sizes) for 50 percent off.
But with sizing so limited on those shoes, you might want to explore other options. For example, the Fresh Foam 880 v12 is available for 50 percent off in the women’s pink and white version, and for 21 or 50 percent off (depending on the color you choose) for the men’s version.
And those aren’t even all the discounts REI offers on Hoka and New Balance running shoes right now. Scroll on to see even more deals.
