Our friends over at Good Housekeeping say Presidents Day weekend is typically full of impressive savings, but you just have to know where to look.Unlike popular savings events like Prime Day and Black Friday, it might be harder to find deals on specific items you might be looking for. Say you’re a runner and looking for a new pair of sneakers for your training, or one of your goals for 2025 is to get 10,000 steps in a day. You might be wondering where to find deals on sneakers that are worth the investment. That’s where we come in. We’ve looked online for deals we could find on footwear and we also looked specifically for sneakers that are backed by product experts at our partners like Runner’s World and Women’s Health. Here’s what we were able to find. Running SneakersLet’s start with our friends over at Runner’s World. They’ve ranked the best running shoes for women and men. For women, Runner’s World ranked the Brooks Glycerin 21 as the best overall running shoe. They credited its soft midsole, comfy all-around fit and a brand new upper that breathes better than past versions. As of this writing, you can save $30 on this sneaker over at Brooks’ website.
