Amazon's got sneakers on sale — and they're actually good
If you've been meaning to upgrade your rotation or just want a deal that doesn't feel desperate, now's the time. These are the best sneakers on sale — no coupon codes, no cringe, just genuinely good shoes.
Brooks Ghost 16
The Brooks Ghost 16 made our list of best running sneakers thanks to the tremendous amount of support it offers. The shoes have a soft midsole and a segmented heel pad that aids in smoother heel-to-toe transitions, according to the brand. The upper is made from breathable mesh to prevent sweaty feet and the rubber sole is lightweight.
Another of our favorite running shoes, these have a rocker-shaped outsole to promote easier heel-toe transitions and are currently 29% off. They have a breathable mesh upper structured to provide support and cushioning in the sole to give a bouncier feel.
These sneakers from Reebok have an old-school '80s look and are intended for casual wear. They have a leather upper and a durable rubber sole that offers strong traction, according to the brand. There is a padded collar around the ankle for support and a removable foam sock liner for extra cushioning. The sneaker comes in over 20 colors, but only the classic white is currently 37% off.
These casual sneakers have a platform heel to give you extra height. The upper is made partially from recycled plastic bottles and the insoles have antimicrobial technology to prevent bacteria and odor, according to the brand. The shoes come in medium and wide widths and reach a size 11. Currently, the white smooth color is 50% off.
These shoes were on our list of best walking shoes. Ryka designed these shoes with women's feet in mind — they have a narrower heel, roomy toe box and cushioning at the midsole. The outsoles offer grippy traction and additional cushioning in the forefoot and heel for comfort.
An internal sock liner molds to your foot to provide a secure fit in these sneakers. They also have a breathable mesh upper to prevent sweaty feet and a durable rubber outsole, according to the brand. These sneakers also have extra cushioning at the midsole for comfort and responsiveness.
These unisex sneakers have a vintage look and are suitable for walking or casual wear. NBC Select associate reporter Bianca Alvarez finds the suede exterior is easy to clean, saying she only has to throw them in the washing machine, and they look barely worn.
Skechers Ultra Flex 3.0
These slip-ons can be put on hands-free by simply slipping your feet in them, according to the brand. They have a molded heel cup to cradle your foot, a cooling memory foam sole and the knit upper is breathable and conforms to your foot for sock-like comfort, according to Sketchers.

Neighbours and Coronation Street legends unite for new 'twisted' drama
Neighbours icon Jackie Woodburne is set to join forces with Coronation Street royalty Kym Marsh in a new Channel 5 drama. The prospect of not having Ramsay Street favourite and acting powerhouse Jackie on our screens isn't worth thinking about – and thankfully we don't have to as the Susan Kennedy star is already preparing for her new role just weeks after wrapping production on the Aussie soap for the second time. And as for Kym, who is reportedly stepping away from her Nicky Walters role in Waterloo Road, fans won't have to wait long to see her again. The soap titans have joined the cast of Imposter, a new four-part drama set in Australia that will see a family at war over a hotel when mum Helen refuses to sell up, despite her children demanding that she does so. The soapy plot twists and turns follow, with Helen having had a secret daughter named Amanda, who she gave up for adoption decades earlier. When Amanda unexpectedly shows up, Helen is delighted – but this is the just the beginning of what's set to unfold. The official synopsis tells us: 'The lucrative hotel is the ultimate prize and a twisted scheme soon spirals into betrayal and ultimately, murder.' Consider us intrigued and excited already. The show will be filmed in Victoria, and at the Fremantle Studios in Nunawading this summer. That means that we may well see some familiar Neighbours locations pop up! Just three years ago, Neighbours was axed by Channel 5, though returned to screens in 2023 when Amazon's ad-supported free service Freevee swooped in to rescue it. The daily escapades of Erinsborough residents thrilled fans for another two years before the decision was made by Amazon (in the wake of Freevee's closure) not to renew Neighbours for another season. Production wrapped on the long-running Aussie soap – a staple of daytime TV in the UK for 40 years – earlier this month, with the final episode slated to drop on December 11th. Discussing her time on the serial, Jackie said: 'It's impossible to measure the gratitude I feel for the gift of 30 years on Neighbours. More Trending 'To do so I would have to calculate the number of extraordinary cast and crew I have been privileged to work with, count the number of laughs I have shared with them, measure the pride I feel for the diverse, dramatic (and sometimes outrageous!) storytelling we have all been a part of. 'We are the best version of 'family'. It has been a wild ride into a happy life. [I] wouldn't change it for quids!' View More » This article was originally published on 21st July 2025.
