I've been covering Prime Day since 2016, only a year after Amazon launched it's annual shopping event for Prime members. And, as Tom's Guide's Buying Guide Editor (and, previously, the site's Fitness Editor), I know what makes a great fitness deal.
That's why I decided to dig into the discounts available right now on Amazon to find you the running shoes, fitness trackers and apparel deals that are actually worth your money, so you can boost your fitness without breaking the bank.
One of my favorites so far is the Columbia Triple Canyon 60L Backpack, which is down to just $135 right now but has a massive internal pocket with organization and a rain cover. And the Brooks Ghost 16 which have dropped to just $99 for an impressively comfortable everyday running shoe.
This women's edition of the Ghost 16 is a impressive all-round running shoe. It's comfortable and well-suited to every day training runs. Like most running shoes, it comes in a huge variety of colors, and the discount will vary by size and color. There are also similar savings on the men's version of the Ghost 16.
If you're looking for one of our favorite all-round Hoka running shoes, the Mach 6 is perfect, and several colors are discounted by almost a third right now. It's well cushioned, making it a great choice for casual runs, but also light enough if you want to add a bit of speed. The women's Mach 6 is also down to $111 in specific colors and sizes.
If you're a New Balance fan in need of a bouncy every day running shoe, I present the Fuel Cell Propel V4. Unsurprisingly, it's pretty good at propelling you forwards, helping you clock the miles without as much strain. Despite the large outer sole, it's surprisingly light, so it doesn't feel heavy on your foot. The men's Fuel Cell Propel V4 is also discounted right now.
The Saucony Endorphin Speed 4 is an ideal shoe if you want to pick up the pace. It's designed to be responsive and lightweight, with an energetic ride that makes it a great choice for race day or speedy workouts, with cushioning that'll see you through longer runs too. Oh, and (you guessed it) the men's version is also discounted.
In her Skechers Go Run Elevate 2.0 review, my fastidious colleague Erin Bashford declared these one of the best options for beginners, explaining that "they're very comfortable and the 1½-inch thick foam provided extra help on runs where I needed a little extra help."
As someone who attended an outdoor festival just a few years ago, I know the value of a practical bag like this. It has a rain cover (excellent), weight distributing straps (helpful) and dedicated areas for your packing, including a space for a hydration bladder (I really could have used one of those).
I don't understand them, but people seem to love these Adidas sliders for going about town, getting a coffee or taking a trip to the beach. They're versatile for sure, and dry quickly. Plus, they're half price right now which makes them an absolute steal.
Patagonia makes some of the best outdoors apparel (and it's pretty ethical too), like this insulated women's vest. It comes in five colors from XXS through XXL. It's windproof and you can wear it under a coat during winter, or alone in early fall when the temperatures haven't dropped too far.
Ever noticed that when your feet get hot, you get hot? That's why sweat-wicking socks like these are so important, as they keep your feet cool, and reduce moisture so you don't end up with rubbing and painful blisters that'll keep you from lacing up.
We were so impressed with this Garmin tracker that we ranked it as the best fitness smartwatch for women. It has all the basics (steps, heart rate, sleep) but in a smaller, less bulky package. There's also built-in GPS for tracking outdoor workouts, and we found that it can last up to two weeks between charges with moderate use.
Garmin launched it's fancy new Fenix 8 almost a year ago, but why buy that when you could get many of the same features for almost half the price? It has all the Garmin classics, like sports tracking, training analysis and outdoor navigation features, and incredible battery life. Our marathon-runner-on-staff, Nick Harris-Fry, managed to make it last three weeks on a single charge, even while running around 70 miles per week!
The Galaxy Watch Ultra is Samsung's Android-friendly version of the Apple Watch Ultra. It's designed for the outdoors, lasts two days between charges and has a massive AMOLED touchscreen for easy use in all conditions. Plus, it integrates with Samsung Health on your phone for AI-powered actionable insights based on your data.
Apple's entry-level smartwatch is almost down to it's lowest ever price with this Prime Day discount. It's a few years old now, but still has the latest software and can do a lot of what you get on the more expensive Apple Watch 10. It's a steal at this price, especially since it's cheaper than some Fitbits right now, and is easily one of the best options if you own an iPhone.
Google might be confusing us all with its Fitbit/Pixel Watch branding (the company acquired Fitbit a few years ago and has merged some features into Google-branded smartwatches) but the Charge 6 is still easily the best fitness tracker out there, especially at this price. There are several colors to choose from, it has built-in GPS, and the battery lasts up to a week between charges. Incredible value for just over $100.
Oura only released the Ring 4 late last year, but this Prime Day fitness deal already drops the price of the most expensive variant by $75. Although you'll need to buy this plus the Oura membership, you get week-long activity, sleep and health tracking with actionable AI insights to help boost your wellbeing.
The all-black design is also discounted right now for Prime Day. The starting price is lower, as is the amount of money off, but the amount you save with this deal basically nets you a free year of Oura membership.
Oura's lineup only varies in color, so you get the same experience no matter which ring you choose. If you're not after a specific finish, this tallies with the black edition for the lowest price over Prime Day.
I'm more of a matte than shiny fan, so to me, the extra you pay for the brushed silver makes it worthwhile. After all, the ring will be on your finger pretty much every moment of the day (except when it charges), but, as with the others, the actual data and experience remains the same.
