There’s a lot to consider when shopping for sneakers. Comfortable footbeds, arch support, and editor-approved style all come into play—but so does cost. So when a sale weekend rolls around, stock up. While Memorial Day isn’t until May 27, there are already plenty of early sneaker deals from editor- and celeb-loved brands that are worth shopping.
Looking to refresh your running shoes? You’ll find responsive, extra-cushioned pairs from brands like Hoka and New Balance at 20 percent off. Outlets like Net-a-Porter, Shopbop, and Nordstrom are a treasure trove of designer sneakers (from Tory Burch to Rag & Bone), while Amazon has more affordable brands, like Tretorn Rawlins and New Balance, for under $100. And if you’re looking for a status shoe, a ton of Veja styles (AKA the brand beloved by celebs like Emma Watson and Meghan Markle) are hiding out at Zappos—for over 30 percent off.
Ahead, shop 27 of the best early Memorial Day sneaker sales—and check back in closer to the long holiday weekend for even more deals.
