The Best Black Friday Sneaker Deals, According to a Thankful Sneakerhead

Throwback kicks with a ’70s vibe and a far-out colorway are a surefire way to keep your spirits groovy through the winter blues.

The cure for Samba anxiety? Cop a pair of Gazelles and call us in the morning

A trip to Japan is cool, but this is a pretty sweet consolation prize.

RIP Indiana Jones, you would’ve hated these sneakers.

Wales Bonner and Adidas have linked up on multiple collections at this point, and somehow, they keep cooking.

If you don’t want to drop a couple of bills on the Margiela GATs, try Adidas’ more affordable army trainers instead.

The Gazelle silhouette has a nice low profile and will always pair well with straight or loose fit denim.

The Japan model was originally designed in the 1960s but it still looks great almost five decades later.

Yes, Asics are cool again. Yes, it took ’em long enough. Yes, they’re also on sale.

Though these aren’t part of the very sick Kiko Kostadinov-designed corner of the brand, it’s clear that the influence is there. And we’re totally here for it.

What you’re looking at, dear reader, is the Zilennial dad sneaker (complimentary).

How many classic sneakers can one brand really have? New Balance just might have more than any other brand and these 530s are just one out of many.

New Balance, old school cool.

Squint and these look like running shoes from Bladerunner. Open your eyes fully and these look like your next new pair of kicks.

New Balance gives their 990 model a revamp every few years and this is the latest iteration. It’s the landmark sneaker of the dad shoe era, but it still looks good especially when discounted.

A chunky cream shoe with red accents is the perfect kickaround footwear for winter.

These might look even better underneath a pair of washed jeans than they did in their original early-’80s heyday.

The Pegasus 41 was already our pick for Best Value at $145—now it’s more than 40% off its original price.

Nike’s Zoom Vomero 5 is the convincing rebuttal against the Asics and New Balances of the world. And honestly, we’re listening.

A comeback nearly 50 years in the making, Nike’s LD-1000 revives one of the brand’s original long-distance grails—once beloved by ’70s track athletes, now ready for everyday legends alike.

George Costanza pulled together many great fits paired with the Nike Cortez, and I intend to follow suit.

There’s just something about Nike’s with a waffle tread that hits different in our current era of menswear.

Hoka’s homage to a classic hiking silhouette is exactly what you expect from the brand that brought us thick-soled running shoes focused on comfort.

The Tech Mafate Speed 4’s are covered in translucent and reflective materials. You’re feet will be brighter than a Times Square billboard and you’ll be comfortable, too.

Built to handle everything from tough trails to hardened roads and even judgmental fashion circles, the Stinson might be the real do-it-all sneaker.

With a thick rubber heel, the big-soled Bondi in some ways best exemplifies the Hoka aesthetic. Looks and feel are closely aligned here though—this thing is as comfy and plush as sneakers come.

Vans will always be cool and we’re thankful that you won’t be called out for being a poser these days.

The only kind of hairy situation we want to get caught in.

Converse’s torpedo kicks are a retro revival you didn’t know you needed. Emphasize their sleekness with a pair of huge pants or match ’em with some slim jeans to jump on the next wave.

Trail running shoes should be tough, but it’s unclear if any are as tough as these are, because these are made with Dyneema and Cordura, which both happen to be nails tough and light af.

Cloudflow sounds like a B2B productivity app and if you’re trying to get a lot of stuff cardio done, then I guess this makes sense.

Perhaps the last sneaker you ever need to own is the Club C. Born for the tennis courts, they’ve expanded to a core style for every stylish dude today (yes, we’re talking to you).

ROA’s futuristic, fashion-forward sneakers are the swerve your closet deserves.

The Sperry CVO is one of the most comfortable plimsolls on the planet, but rarely are they this fun—and rarely is “fun” this easy to wear.

Sleek, slim, suede sneakers are on my wishlist if you just so happen to be my girlfriend who loves me and wants to buy me a gift.

The Oakley Factory Team line is one of the most maniacal footwear projects around, but the best of the bunch, like these, are suprisingly easy to wear and ridiculously functional.

Low-profile sneakers are always a good move, and when they’re 25% off, it’s hard not to snag.

For the price of a round of beers, you can snag these sleek Pumas in a coincidentally festive shade of green.
