Best Cyber Monday Running Shoe Deals: 14 Standout Bargains This Season
From marathon racers to max-cushion daily trainers, here are the running shoe deals worth acting on, with guidance on who each shoe suits best.
Introduction
Cyber Monday has brought a genuinely useful wave of running shoe discounts after a quiet Black Friday. Several sitewide deals are live, including 40% off much of the selection at Dick’s Sporting Goods with an extra $20 off $100 in the app, 20% off most products at Tracksmith, and 20% to 25% off sale items at Asics. On top of that, individual models from Saucony, Altra, and Nike are down to some of the lowest prices we have tracked. Here is the full roundup, with notes on who each shoe is actually for.
Tracksmith Elliot Runner
Tracksmith’s 20% off sitewide code brings the Elliot Runner down from $198 to $158.40. The Elliot is a classic daily trainer that uses PEBA foam instead of standard EVA, with a supercritical PEBA insole layered over a PEBA midsole. It launched about a year ago, and if the $200 price tag held you back, this deal puts it right in line with premium daily trainers like the Nike Vomero and Asics Gel Nimbus, which typically sit around $160. Tracksmith also has a large selection of apparel and accessories at 40% off, making this one of the few times of year the brand’s pricing feels reasonable. The deal runs today only.

Asics Novablast 3
Asics is running 20% off most sale items, and stacking that with a 25% sale discount plus a 10% new-account bonus drops the Novablast 3 to $67. That is a remarkable price for a solid, well-cushioned daily trainer. The Novablast 4 starts shipping in the first week of December, but last year’s model is far from obsolete, and picking up the previous version at a steep discount is one of the smartest ways to buy shoes. If you want a bouncy, cushioned trainer for easy and moderate miles, sub-$70 is hard to argue with.
Saucony Endorphin Speed 3 and Endorphin Pro 3
Saucony’s Black Friday pricing has ended on its own site, but REI is holding the same prices through December 4. The Endorphin Speed 3 is $128 at rei.com and the Endorphin Pro 3 is $168. The Speed 3 is a strong faster daily trainer and uptempo shoe. For sub-three-hour marathoners or sub-1:25 half marathoners, it works well as a long run shoe, though it runs a little soft for interval sessions if you prefer something firmer. It is also a great speedwork option if you are running between 3:00 and 4:30 in the marathon.

The Pro 3 is an excellent marathon racing shoe and long run with pace shoe. If you like racing in the Vaporfly but want to train in something different, the Pro 3 is a good fit, and it can also serve as one shoe for both fast long runs and race day.
Saucony Kinvara and Saucony Ride
Saucony’s Cyber Monday deal takes 40% off its classic shoes, bringing the Kinvara to $72 and the Ride to $84. Both use Saucony’s PowerRun foam, an EVA compound with a firm, snappy feel. The Kinvara is lighter on foot and more flexible, making it the better pick for shorter, faster efforts. Think of it as a fast speedwork or short-distance daily trainer in the mold of the New Balance Rebel. It is not the shoe for double-digit long runs, but it excels at putting down pace during the week.
The Ride is the classic daily trainer of the pair, with more cushion and protection than the Kinvara. It is not as soft as the Novablast, but if you prefer a firmer feel underfoot in the vein of the Nike Pegasus or Adidas Adios, the Ride sits in that same category, now at a very approachable price.
Altra Vanish Carbon, Vanish Tempo, and Mont Blanc Boa
Altra is one of the only brands to put its carbon-plated race day shoes on sale this season. The Vanish Carbon, the brand’s top-tier marathon racer, is $168. It is a zero-drop shoe with a supercritical foam midsole that is bouncy and genuinely fun to run in, and it is the standout option for low-drop or zero-drop race day shoes. The Vanish Tempo, its non-plated training counterpart, is $120. It uses the same bouncy supercritical foam with a more structured training upper, and it can work as a daily trainer or a workout shoe. If you have been curious about zero-drop road shoes, this is a good entry point.

Also on sale is the Altra Mont Blanc Boa, the brand’s top trail running shoe, at $147. It is a do-it-all trail shoe in the spirit of the Hoka Speedgoat 5, capable of handling everything from smooth paths to technical terrain, and it is zero drop as well.
Nike Infinity Run 4, Pegasus 40, and Invincible 3 at Dick’s
Dick’s Sporting Goods tends to have some of the best online running deals of any major retailer, and this Cyber Monday is no exception. The Nike Infinity Run 4 is $95, down from $160. It is a heavier shoe at around 11 ounces, borderline casual in character, but very comfortable with a huge stack of ReactX foam. It is a great gift for a newer runner who wants something comfortable to lace up for a few miles, a solid recovery or max-cushion option to protect your legs, and a good shoe for long periods on your feet. It has even been a common sight on NFL sidelines this season.
The Nike Pegasus 40 is $82 at Dick’s, down from the $95 to $105 range seen in recent weeks. The Pegasus 40 is a classic, no-frills daily trainer on the firmer side using Nike’s React foam. Nothing about the ride is spectacular, and that is precisely its appeal: it handles everything from fast runs to slow jogs to walking around town. It is a do-it-all shoe similar in spirit to the Tracksmith Elliot Runner at roughly half the price, even when the Elliot is on sale.
The Nike Invincible 3 is $108 at Dick’s, the lowest price seen so far, down from its $180 retail. It is a cushioned daily trainer and recovery shoe built on a thick bed of ZoomX foam, Nike’s race-day energy return compound, without a plate. The ride is soft, bouncy, and fun, though not the most stable. It takes some of the burden of high mileage off your legs and doubles well as a casual and walking shoe.
Asics Glide Ride 3
The Asics Glide Ride 3 is $112 at asics.com, dropping to $102 with a new account sign-up. This heavily rockered training shoe suits faster-paced running. It is not as bouncy and energetic as the Saucony Endorphin Speed 3, but it is a reliable workhorse for handling moderate to fast miles during marathon training. Its future is unclear: Asics has released many newer models since, and there has been no word on a next iteration, which suggests the line may be discontinued. If you are a fan of rocker-style trainers, now is the time to pick one up while inventory lasts.

Bonus: Nike Alphafly 2 for Women
The Nike Alphafly 2 is $185 at Dick’s Sporting Goods, $100 off MSRP, but only in women’s sizes 6.5 and 7.5 with limited stock. The Alphafly 2 essentially introduces itself: ZoomX foam, a carbon fiber plate, and Air Pods in the forefoot. If you are a forefoot striker or a fast marathon racer and can fit those sizes, this is an exceptional discount on a top-tier marathon racer.
Overall Buying Advice
Timing matters here. The Tracksmith code ends today, the Saucony pricing at REI holds through December 4, and the Alphafly 2 discount depends entirely on remaining sizes. If a shoe on this list matches a real need in your rotation, it is worth acting promptly rather than waiting for another round of markdowns. And as always with end-of-cycle deals, buying last year’s model at a steep discount is often better value than paying full price for a fresh version with minor updates.
Conclusion
This Cyber Monday offers something for nearly every runner: premium daily trainers at standard-trainer prices, marathon racers with $100 off, and proven workhorses under $85. Match the shoe to your training, check the remaining stock, and move quickly on the deals that expire today.
