Shop These Memorial Day Sneaker Sales For Up To 43% Off
Holiday weekends are a great opportunity to save on everyday must-haves, and Memorial Day is no exception. Right now, there are dozens of sneaker deals worth shopping from the biggest brands in the industry, and we've spotted discounts on some of our gear editors' favorite picks, including the On Cloud 5, a standout shoe that made their lists of the best walking shoes for both men and women, and the Asics Gel-Kayono 31, Forbes Vetted's pick for the overall best running shoe for men.
Regardless of whether you need an everyday sneaker like the Hoka Clifton 9, a durable hiker like the Salomon X Ultra 4 Mid GTX or a speedy trainer like the Hoka Mach 6, there are plenty of great sneaker deals to shop this week. These are the ones we recommend.
The thick cushioning and breathable mesh upper of this sneaker make it an excellent option for anyone who spends long days on their feet. This 20% discount is available in 10 colorways at Dick's Sporting Goods this week. All colors of the women's Clifton 9 are also on sale.
You can pick from 10 discounted colorways at Dick's Sporting Goods, including the neutral Barley shade above. Our favorite stability running shoe for men, the Arahi 7 is designed to prevent overpronation (when your ankle rolls inward as you walk). It's not as cushioned many of Hoka's popular designs, but the sacrifice comes a more stable build overall. Women's sizes are also on sale.
Our gear editor named the Mach 6 the best Hoka shoe for tempo runs. If you're looking for a lightweight trainer that'll keep up, the Mach 6 is speedier and more dynamic than its plusher Clifton 9 cousin. Hoka only has two colorways available for this price, but a wide array of sizes are in stock.
The super-comfortable Hoka Bondi 8 has been a customer favorite for years, thanks to its excellent cushioning and bouncy foam sole. It's a great everyday choice for those who are on their feet for most of the day or enjoy taking long walks. Right now, select men's sizes and colorways are on sale for the lowest price we've ever seen these sneakers; most, however, are available at a sale price of $116, just a dollar more than its previous lowest price.
Plush and stable, the Cloudrunner was designed to minimize impact using On's proprietary CloudTec cushioning and lightweight foam. It also has a higher 9mm heel-toe drop that's good for runners who tend to land heel first. This discount is available in two colors and sizes 10.5 through 13.
The Cloudswift 3 has a sock-like fit and ribbed lacing to keep the sneaker firmly in place while you move. It has a springy sole and a durable, rounded tread that grips the ground and propels you forward. Reviewers also comment on the sneaker's overall comfort, noting that it requires little to no break-in period. This discount is available in seven colors, though sizing is limited depending on the colorway.
If you're looking for an On Cloud Memorial Day sale on trail-running sneakers, we've got you. Right now you can get 25% off the On Cloudsurfer Trail-Running Shoes, in a gray-and-light-green colorway (Frost/Lima). With a moderate cushion and a 7mm heel-to-toe drop, these offer comfort, flexibility and shock-absorbing grip and traction. The deal is available in eight sizes at the time of this writing.
With a light, extra-cushioned design, these sneakers are designed to help propel you forward for more speed. The woven uppers are light and breathable, and the shoe also has excellent reflectivity to help keep you visible in the evenings. This colorway (Black/Iron) is now on sale for 25% off, and it's still available in most women's sizes.
Our favorite women's walking shoe overall and our favorite men's walking shoe for long distances, the Brooks Ghost 16 sneaker is made for walkers who want to get some serious miles under their feet. The sneaker is well-cushioned, supportive and stable—albeit a bit bulky. Brooks is offering nine colorways for 21% off at the moment in a solid array of sizes.
The newest version of this sneaker (the Glycerin 22) is our favorite men's running shoe for wide feet. The style is very well-cushioned, with a high 10mm drop and spacious toe box. If you don't need the latest design, this 21 model is 38% off in seven colorways at Amazon right now (a few other colors are also on sale for slightly less).
Highly cushioned with a rocker-style sole, this sneaker is the our editors' pick for the best shoe for standing on concrete all day—and the best men's walking shoe for cushioning. It was super popular with our testers for its overall comfort and extremely soft landing. However, its higher stack and weight leave it better suited for standing and walking versus more demanding activities. Two colors are on sale in women's sizes and one is on sale in men's.
The Brooks Hyperion Max serves a great daily training shoe, and it's got a springy step with a highly responsive cushion. It may even be too springy to wear all day or while running errands, but they'll keep you energized on runs. All sizes are still available, and the lowest price is only offered in the colorway pictured, but other color combos are on sale as well, with most discounted to under $110.
When you're on the trail, you want a durable shoe with plenty of traction and support. This Salomon design checks off all of those boxes and then some. It's an extremely versatile style that can be worn every day for casual treks or longer thru-hikes. Our tester says, '[it] feels a bit more like a boot-shoe hybrid…if you decide to race down the mountain or pick up the pace, it happily obliges.' This discount is available in black.
This hiking shoe was made with women in mind, with a lower-density chassis to help improve stability and comfort around your ankles. Like most good hiking styles, the shoe is made to keep you comfortable, supported and dry for long days on your feet. REI only has the pictured color in stock, but most sizes between 6 and 13 are available.
The women's version of the Ultra 4 Mid GTX boot is on sale too, also for 40% off. Sizes 6 and up are still available, in the Ebony/Mocha Mousse/Cream colorway. They're anatomically designed to cradle your feet and ankles as well as keep you stable with the low-density chassis.
If you prefer your hikers low, you can get these black-and-gray shoes in multiple sizes at 40% off right now. They're adjustable, lightweight and have excellent traction even on slick surfaces. The quick-lace system is convenient, and a 'game-changer,' according to a 5-star reviewer.
Our editors named the Asics Gel-Kayano 31 the best running shoe overall for men thanks to its excellent support, impact absorption and a design that promotes proper alignment. As our gear writer Steven John puts it, 'Essentially, this shoe holds your foot exactly where it should be, with your heel locked in place, arches supported and toes free to spread out with each step.' Both men's and women's sizes are on sale for $40 off in a range of colors and sizes, so don't miss out on the rare chance to save on this model.
These lightweight and breathable trail-running sneakers are now 25% off in the colorway shown, with all sizes still in stock; most men's sizes are still available and on sale for the same price as well. Proprietary cushioning technology provides lightweight impact absorption for good bounce, and an OrthoLite Hybrid Max sockliner offers comfort no matter where your adventures take you.
Designed for road running or treadmill workouts, these running sneakers are lighter weight than their previous iteration, but still cushioned enough to provide comfort and bounce with every step. The mesh upper is made with over 90% recycled materials, a foam blend outsole offers good traction, and this sneaker is also American Podiatric Medical Association (APMA) accepted.

Hilton lifts 2025 profit forecast on US demand recovery
(Reuters) -Hotel operator Hilton Worldwide lifted its forecast for 2025 profit, as travel demand in the U.S. recovers from a downturn in March and April. Earlier this year, domestic travel took a hit after U.S. President Donald Trump's aggressive tariff announcements triggered fears of an economic recession that led consumers to rein in discretionary expenses. Some travel companies, such as Delta Air Lines and United Airlines have recently flagged that travel demand in the U.S. has steadied, although the recovery has been slower than anticipated. McLean, Virginia-based Hilton now expects full-year adjusted profit to be in the range of $7.83 and $8 per share, compared with its earlier forecast of $7.76 to $7.94. The Waldorf Astoria-parent posted an adjusted profit of $2.20 per share in the second quarter, compared with $1.91 a year ago.

Edmunds: Five expert tips to make cross-country EV driving easy
The idea of a cross-country road trip in an electric vehicle might seem daunting. After all, it's not hard to envision getting stranded on the side of the road with a depleted battery or being stuck in a parking lot, charging for hours. But there are ways to easily avoid these worst-case scenarios. The experts at Edmunds have plenty of experience driving electric vehicles, and here they share their five best tips on how to make cross-country driving in an EV easy. Use EV route planning applications Minimizing the number of charging stations you visit and your time at them is key to efficient road-tripping in an EV. To accomplish this, use a route planning application. A route planner helps you determine where and when you should stop to charge to reach your destination. The navigation system in most new EVs typically has this functionality built in. You simply enter your destination, and the navigation system automatically calculates where you will need to charge along your route. In our experience, Tesla vehicles have the best route planning capability. EVs that utilize Google Maps as their onboard navigation system have a similar capability. Many of the latest EVs from General Motors, such as the Chevrolet Equinox EV, have Google Maps integration. Alternatively, you can use an EV route planning smartphone app such as A Better Route Planner (ABRP) or PlugShare. We prefer ABRP because it's available as an app or through an internet browser. It also shows more details at each stop, like the expected battery percentage. When using a route planner, stick to Level 3 fast charging stations when driving. Slower Level 2 stations will take hours but are ideal for overnight charging. Use Tesla charging stations The Tesla Supercharger network of fast charging stations is the largest in the country. We recommend using them on a cross-country trip because they are usually very reliable and have more charging stalls per location than most networks. Teslas have access to them and certain non-Tesla EVs are also eligible to use them, but most non-Tesla EVs need an adapter to charge at a Tesla Supercharger. Check with your local service center or search online to determine if your EV is compatible. If you have a non-Tesla EV that has access, change the settings in your route planner to include Tesla stations. If your EV cannot charge at Tesla stations, you'll need to utilize other third-party charging station networks. Some of the largest networks include Electrify America, EVgo and ChargePoint. Have a backup plan, and leave a range cushion When planning a route that does not use Tesla Superchargers, it's best to have a backup charging station for each stop. Charging stations can sometimes be out of order, and in some cases, like during a holiday or on busy highways, there could be long lines. To find the status of a specific charging station, download the app of the company the station belongs to. Make sure to leave yourself enough range to make it to your backup station as well. Stay in hotels with on-site charging stations Staying at hotels with on-site charging stations can save time and money. Hotel charging stations are typically Level 2 stations that can fully charge your battery overnight, allowing you to start your trip immediately instead of charging before you hit the highway. They are usually more affordable than fast charging stations, and in some cases, are free. One way to find hotels with charging stations is by using the PlugShare app. This app contains a database of charging stations, and you can filter it to show stations connected with lodging locations. Use charging stations that have amenities It's fair to expect that each charging stop you make in your EV will take 20-45 minutes. To make the most of that time, charge at stations with a convenience store, retail store or restaurant nearby. That way, you can use the bathroom, grab some stacks or even get a full meal while your vehicle is charging. Many charging stations are located near stores or restaurants, but not all. You can use Google Maps or similar smartphone apps to find out what's within walking distance of the charging stations you plan on using. You can change the stations your route planner recommends as long as they aren't too far away. Edmunds says Planning a cross-country trip in an EV takes extra effort, but doing it properly can make the journey nearly as smooth as in a gas-powered car. Give yourself access to as many fast charging stations as possible by choosing an EV that's capable of using Tesla Supercharger stations. ____ This story was provided to The Associated Press by the automotive website Edmunds.

Tesla's new supercharging station shows that the branded diner is having a moment
BY Tesla's new Supercharger station, which opened on July 21, is nothing like your average stop for gas. The station doubles as a Tesla-branded retro-futuristic diner—and it looks like an '80s sci-fi movie set crashed in the middle of downtown Los Angeles. The Tesla Diner, which boasts 80 v4 Supercharger stalls alongside a full menu of greasy finger foods, feels like a jarringly fanciful detour for the brand amidst a year that's been anything but upbeat. As Elon Musk's prolonged feud with President Donald Trump rages on, Tesla has suffered a constant rollercoaster of stock price slumps, protests, and poor delivery numbers (overall, the number of cars Tesla delivered in April, May, and June this year was down 13% from the year before). Investors are currently waiting with bated breath for Tesla's second-quarter earnings report, which is due today. For Tesla, the new diner has actually been at least seven years in the making (Elon Musk first teased the concept in 2018). And, while it may seem like a concept that came out of the blue, it shows that the branded diner is officially having a moment. Over the past few years, companies across a diverse range of brand categories have turned to the pop-up diner format as a kind of set piece to offer customers an immersive brand experience. Here are a few. The branded diner phenomenon: part event, part signifier As companies clamor for visibility in an increasingly crowded advertising environment, the 'lifestyle brand' has increasingly become a buzzword that companies aspire to—and the branded diner can be understood as a physical embodiment of that trend. Lifestyle branding expands a consumer's brand association beyond a specific core product to a way of living, based on a brand's values. Brands might achieve this through additional elements like merch (see Erewhon's $335 monochromatic sweatsuit), events and activations (see Sweetgreen's Sweetlife music festival), and celebrity-backed launches (see DJ Mustard's recent collab with Heinz), and even in-house coffee shops. Now, several companies have found that the diner pop-up is the perfect venue to act as a brand signifier, because it puts the brand's values and aesthetics on a public stage. These kinds of activations, which don't necessarily push a particular product, also build brand affinity, or positive brand association, with consumers. And that's something Tesla is in dire need of. How Chanel, Jellycat, and Skims put diners on the menu In August 2023, Chanel was one of the first brands to debut a branded diner, bringing the fashion house's distinct flavor of 'old money' luxury to a '50s-esque pop-up in New York City decked out in pastel greens and pinks. That same fall, a distinctly different brand—Jellycat, the purveyor of overpriced-yet-unavoidable stuffed animals—also brought a branded diner to NYC, centered around the whimsical, innocent world of its fake food plushies. The experience has since taken off to such an extent that Jellycat has opened new locations in London, Paris, and Shanghai, as well as launching an updated 'breakfast' menu at the NYC flagship. Other brands have similarly turned their diners into an exclusive experience, including Mattel's Barbie, which served Barbie-inspired food and drinks at two Malibu Barbie Cafe pop-ups in NYC and Chicago; Cheez-It, which served up childhood nostalgia alongside Cheez-It milkshakes at its '70s-inspired joint; and Skims, which took over West Hollywood's Mel's Drive-In with a specially curated menu. The branded diner formula seems to follow a few simple rules: Creating a space that feels like another dimension, dropping hints at obscure brand lore, and giving visitors access to products they can't find anywhere else. Each step is in service of driving press and publicity, which, in turn, help to boost brand reputation and sales. The Tesla Diner serves up cyborg fare and futuristic vibes Tesla's diner follows that playbook, turning the EV maker's recognizably futuristic branding into an experience that customers can literally see, touch, and eat. Outside, the building's curved silver facade is accented with a round entryway and elliptical windows, and inside, it's decked out with booth seating fit for a spacecraft. Visitors can grab a burger in a box shaped like a Cybertruck, watch movie clips at a giant drive-in, and munch on popcorn served by an Optimus robot. One subtle interior design detail you might miss is a low-contrast wall decal that describes the Tesla Mission as 'accelerating the world's transition to sustainable energy.' The mission-as-mural is notable, considering Musk's recent spat with Trump on the termination of EV tax credits as part of the administration's budget reconciliation bill, which passed in July. The bill repealed tax credits for things like clean energy, solar panels, and heat pumps, and terminated the popular EV credit, which will now end after September 30 of this year. A Tesla brand activation first The diner is the first brand activation of its kind for Tesla, which has historically relied on non-traditional advertising like word-of-mouth endorsements and Twitter promotion from Musk himself. Given that Musk has arguably lost a fair chunk of his credibility with buyers and investors this year, it's probably a smart move for the brand to turn its attention toward more conventional channels for the time being. The otherworldly Tesla Diner experience certainly isn't the future of EV charging stations, given that the amount of investment and construction time required would make rapid roll-out impossible. However, it might be a way to drum up some more positive brand sentiment during a decidedly gloomy year. The Tesla Diner isn't going to un-screw the brand (as Fast Company so succinctly put it early this month) either—but we have to admit, this might be the best thing it's done all year.
