I might not be the fastest runner or even run as much as other athletes I know, but one thing is for sure: I test a lot of running shoes. I curate T3's best running shoes guide and take this task very seriously, which means I wear a different pair every week (sometimes, I wear multiple pairs within a 7-day period). So trust men when I say I know a thing or two about performance footwear!

I'm also a bit of a Black Friday expert, as I've been delivering the best Black Friday deals to T3 readers since 2019. Combine these two skills, and you get a person (me!) who can identify the most unique offers on the most competent running footwear almost immediately.

Below, I've collected my top picks from top brands, including Nike, Adidas, Lululemon, Allbirds, and more. Some retailers and manufacturers have yet to launch their Black Friday sales, so make sure you check back later, as I'm keen on updating this article as often as possible!
