This running shoe from Saucony offers the same PWRRUN PB midsole foam that many fans of the shoe brand look out for, just paired with a unique construction that brings materials higher up around your foot. This increases flexibility and mobility. As a result, you can wear these both daily runs or during high intensity workouts at the gym.

The 30th iteration of the classic stability running shoe continues to impress. The Gel-Kayano 30 comes with an additional 4mm of padding in comparison to previous versions of the shoes for an even cushier running surface to land on. Testers loved how much softer the new midsole felt and how springy the return was on their runs. It also has a broader base for added stability given the higher stack. Our testers noted that the wide base helped balance out that springy response with a stability similar to earlier models.

With a plush, thick slab for a midsole, the 20th iteration of the Brooks Glycerin balances comfort with a surprisingly responsive bounce. Add to that a relatively light 10 ounce weight and a wide, stable sole, and this shoe stands out as an ideal everyday trainer.

For a daily trainer, this Health - Injuries is unique for its pretty affordable starting price considering the full-length TPU plate built into the midsole. This gives it a much springier return than running shoes without it. Add to this an even bigger discount during Prime Big Deals Day and the shoes are hard to resist. Testers liked this particular model for its slightly sturdier cushioning as well, giving it more stability in comparison to the squishier foam in other New Balance options.

With high stack cushioning and a zero-drop design, the Adidas Terrex Free Hiker 2.0 Low Gore-Tex Hiking Shoe promotes a more natural running gait while also offering high level support. Despite the high stack design, the shoe is also pretty lightweight at less than 10 ounces. It also comes with a molded heel collar that fits closer to your foot for a more secure fit. Our test team also took note of how well the mesh upper helped regulate temperature even on particularly hot days.

Same as the men’s version of the shoe, the Glycerin 20 from Brooks is an impressive shoe that keeps you comfortable during both daily and longer runs. We appreciate the breathable mesh on the upper, especially in the peak of summer.

After running in this shoe, our testers gave the Triumph 21 high ratings nearly across the board. The cushy trainer is great for both daily runs as well as the occasional long-distance jaunt, where it didn’t cause any foot pain in our experience. Expect a springy, responsive ride no matter the distance. Our testers loved how the cushioning, despite such a high stack, never made the shoe feel dense. In fact, many found that they actually shed time off their averages in them.

This zero-drop running shoe has a minimalist design that’s paired with maximalist cushioning. The Rivera 3 from Altra is a great introduction to zero-drop designs with the high stack cushioning offering a smoother, soft run as you adjust to the slightly different gait that having no drop demands. The wide toebox that Altra is known for helps keep your feet loose even with a snug midsection. Test editor Amanda Furrer loved the additional 2mm of stack height for their stabilizing effect.

Asics (somewhat boldly) redesigned this long-standing favorite for its 30th iteration, and the result is incredible. The shoe currently ranks as the best stability shoe from our testing, and has stood out for its springy step in comparison to the slower, more plodding earlier versions. Testers founds the cushioning softer and more responsive than in previous models. They also noticed the internal guidance system added more stability without overwhelming their natural movement.

While Mizuno might not always be at the top of your mind for running shoes, the company has several high quality options including the Wave Rider. While we love the 28 as a versatile trainer for neutral gaits, the 26th version of the shoe is similarly great but at a 66 percent discount. The shoes has an internal plant-based plate in the midsole for higher energy return on your stride. The shoes also have a carbonized rubber sole which is durable enough to handle hundreds of miles without wearing away.

A sturdy, grippy, and durable shoe, the Cyber Monday Treadmill Deals 2024 from Altra remains one of the few trail running shoes that works for both running and adventuring in uneven terrain. The roomy toebox leaves space for your foot to splay and grip more comfortably on rocks and gravel. The biggest improvement testers noticed in this pair over the previous iteration was how much more secure the fit is. While the grip always has been great, the improved fit further improves the grip in turn.

Prime Day Mens Trail Running Shoe Deals Saucony doesn’t weigh you down. Despite the relative lightness, the shoe still comes equipped with some particularly toothy lugs and a rock guard for protecting your toes. Furthermore, the D-ring on the upper lets you latch on a gaiter for extra protection from the elements.

New Balance offers a number of different trail running shoes, but the Hierro V7 is the best of the bunch per our evaluations. The shoe works well for hikes and climbs, but is also a go-to model for trail races and marathons. This pair is a full ounce lighter than the sixth generation of the shoe—a well-noted improvement from our test team.

While it works great for agile movement on uneven terrain, the Moab Speed from Merrell is best suited as a replacement for your clunky hiking boots on rest days. The Vibram outsole lends great grip on wet or otherwise slippery surfaces, and the internal plate offers enough stability to keep you balanced while flexing near the ball and toes of your foot.

The Cascadia 17 GTX offers much of the same cushioned support that you expected from any Brooks shoe whether on roads or trails. The thick internal cushioning is balanced out with an integrated midsole and rock plate for durability.

Infused with the ever-popular Ultraboost foam, the Terrex Free Hiker 2 from Adidas is not going to set any speed records. But it is a lively, springy shoe for every type of trail. Its Continental rubber soles lend plenty of grip, and a Gore-Tex interior liner protects your socks from water. Our testers loved it as a perfect middle ground between heavy-duty hiking boots and lightweight (yet less durable) trail running shoes.

The Peregrine 13 is the top trail pick from Saucony, with the sockliner and lightweight foam getting top marks from our testers. The rock shield also protects your feet from debris as you pick up your pace.

This pair of trail running shoes from New Balance has slightly smaller lugs than other options on this list. However these shallower lugs are paired with an incredibly grippy Vibram sole that provides great traction against wet and dry surfaces alike. This is placed on a relatively lightweight and heavily cushioned shoe for comfortable, stabile runs.
