Nike is known for some of the most iconic sneakers like the Cortez and Killshot 2, but the brand’s running shoes have commanded a particularly strong following over the years. Whether you need grippy trail sneakers or a plush midsole for road runs, the Swoosh has a shoe for you. Lately, Nike has been dropping the price on some of its very best runners, including the uber-comfortable Structure 25, and it’s nearly half off.
Though the current sale price is $99, you can score a pair of Nike Structure 25 Running Shoes for as low as $79 when you use the code FALL20 at checkout—a combined discount of 44% off its original price of $140. These road running shoes have earned nearly 60 five-star ratings from shoppers who say they’re the exact middle of “where comfort meets support.” They’re available in sizes ranging from 6 to 15, and you can find them at this price in three great colors, though several others are also on sale for a little bit more.

The Nike Structure 25 delivers a plush ride thanks to its Cushlon 3.0 compression-molded EVA midsole foam that’s paired with a Zoom Air unit (an air-filled cell) in the forefoot. The foam creates a soft underfoot sensation and absorbs impact forces, and the Zoom Air unit springs back into shape after impact to create a responsive feel. It’s also a supportive shoe: The sole is designed to support your arch and keep your foot aligned as you run, and the engineered mesh upper features targeted support zones to stabilize the top of your foot. On the bottom, a waffle rubber outsole offers lockdown grip and plenty of durability for high-mileage training.
According to reviewers, the Structure 25 is a standout for its great ride and versatility. “Foot heaven,” a shopper exclaimed. “I wish I knew about these long ago…These are so very light and even more comfy.” Another shopper agreed, saying, “Very comfortable…This shoe works very well for my long walks and runs.”

Other shoppers appreciated the shoe’s supportive, stable feel. “They are so comfortable, with proper arch support (good for someone like me with flat feet),” a shopper said. “I feel like I’m being propelled forward when I run.” Another shopper simply said they’ve been “super supportive” when they go for long runs.
Nike shoes set the standard for running footwear, and the Structure 25 is part of the reason why: Its supportive, comfy ride is ideal for both running and walking. Nike shoes usually command a premium, so scoring a pair for under $100 is a stellar deal. Grab yours now before this primo discount races away.
