For most people, the best Black Friday deals are connected to offers on tech and entertainment, but it's also a good time to shop for running and training shoes and apparel. If you need to update your shoe rotation or just want to get a new pair of trainers, now is the time to shop around.
This is the sixth Black Friday I've done for T3, and trust me when I say that most of the best running shoes and best workout shoes will be on offer in November. Last year, we saw the Nike Alphafly 2 drop to an all-time low; we also witnessed many top-ticket brands, such as Adidas, On, and Hoka, drop the price of the most sought-after models.
I've included some of the highlights from each brand below—these will be updated as we go along. I'll also post more deals as stories below from all retailers and brands I can find. Of course, since this is T3, I'll focus on quality deals; you know where to find the cheap stuff.
Buckle up, friends, as there are plenty of running shoe deals and trainer sales to go through! Let's get going.
