If I had a dollar for every time someone asked me which running shoes to buy, I'd be a lot richer. I've run five marathons and reviewed the best running shoes as my day job for the past decade, so I know what I'm looking for when it comes to shopping for new sneakers.

If you've been waiting for the Prime Day deals to roll in to upgrade your running shoes, I've got good news — the sales have started early, and I've hand-picked the deals worth shopping today. The cheapest pair isn't always the best for you and your feet — they often have cheaper foams and won't last as long. The best option is normally an older, last-season pair of shoes, and I've found some below.
