We're in the final hours and there's a ton of Brooks running shoes remaining on sale that our fitness team has tested firsthand.

Fall is in the air which means holiday shopping is right around the corner. While there are plenty of great gift ideas for runners out there, nothing tops the right pair of shoes. That said, never pay full price for the shoes you want the most. With Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals starting earlier and lasting longer, you won’t have to.

You can tell if a shoe has that support by doing a “twist test,” where you hold the shoe on the ends and try to twist it like you’re wringing out a washcloth. “The stiffer the shoe, the better,” Lockwood says. BTW, all of the shoes we chose passed the twist test.

Our experienced fitness editors found the best discounts on walking shoes that they've tested. Sales include Hoka, Brooks, and Skechers shoes.
