Nike Sneaker Sale UNI 23
Nike

The sneakers-with-dresses look is about to be our vibe for summer, and you'll want to get on board not just because it's a cute and casual pairing to run around town in, but also because there's a weeklong Nike sneaker sale happening to help inspire (and save on) those fresh outfit ideas. This means you can buy new kicks to wear with all your linen midis and satin slips at a discount until June 17. At least we are. And we're not stopping at shoes—there are also impressive deals on leggings, shorts and sports bras to be scored this week. Yup, it's that good of a sale.

Sneakers are obviously the biggest buy, though, because one thing about Nike is they always come through with some of the most supportive and super cushioned styles that wouldn't dare to let you down midday. That includes the Nike Air Max 90 shoes (were $130, now $104) that reviewers are obsessed with wearing for all occasions. Because how could a sneaker be both comfortable for walking for hours and elegant to wear with almost any fit? The Free Metcon 4s (were $120, now $91) also check all the boxes if you're searching for a good ol’ reliable training shoe. One buyer says, "They feel very light, [and] their sole is perfect for training on the ground. Also, my feet feel much more secure when I'm jumping or doing lunges." Hence, the reason we're currently adding them to our cart.

Getting interested? Well, then you must check out these five absolute best Nike sneakers to snag on sale while you can.

10 Sneakers to Wear with Dresses for a Cute and Casual Outfit


  • Discount: 20 percent off
  • Size Range: 5 to 12
  • Pros: modern look, Max Air cushioning
  • Cons: snug fit, midweight

These are among the best Nike sneakers you can buy during the sale. The biggest reason being how comfortable they are for hours on end, and that's all because of a Max Air unit in the heel that takes its cushioning to the next level, per the brand. And we can't not mention the neat rubber waffle outsole that makes its traction and durability unmatched. While they're made for running, reviewers wear them for strength training, casual days out and so much more thanks to their stylish look.

  • Discount: 24 percent off
  • Size Range: 5 to 12
  • Pros: super flexible, breathable
  • Cons: non-lace design, runs small

Reviewers may be divided on the fact that this slip-on shoe is lace-free, but one thing they're on the same page about is how comfortable they feel once you determine your size. It seems as if they'll fit like a glove, and the breathable mesh and soft foam core cushion are to thank for that. The Nike Free technology is even more impressive, making them crazy flexible in the forefoot so you can easily move through your workout.

  • Discount: 18 percent off
  • Size Range: 5 to 12
  • Pros: made from 20 percent recycled materials, lightweight
  • Cons: runs narrow

This shoe is bouncy, comfy and simply stylish, according to shoppers who wouldn't dream of wearing any other sneaker. They're actually some of the most uncomplicated shoes you can find, with straightforward details that get the job done. For instance, the upper materials are supposed to stretch and contour to your foot as you break them in. Meanwhile, their foam midsole and outsole provide the perfect amount of cushioning you need daily. As for the low-cut and padded collar? Just another feature that looks as good as it feels. But, of course, you won't know any of this unless you snag a pair for yourself.

  • Discount: 20 percent off
  • Size Range: 5 to 12
  • Pros: timeless retro design, long-lasting
  • Cons: has a break-in period, requires effort to put on and take off

Confession: We've been eyeing these classic high-tops for a hot minute. Now that they're on sale, we couldn't resist adding them to our collection of kicks that will look good with dresses and skirts (and just about anything else, for that matter). And while details like their crisp leather upper, exposed foam and suede accents are what make them fashionable, other features like a solid-rubber outsole contribute to their durability and all-around comfiness. Retro, cool and comfortable—what more could we ask for?

  • Discount: 39 percent off
  • Size Range: 5 to 12
  • Pros: extra padding at the tongue and collar, energized feel
  • Cons: stains easily

Runners will want to snap up this sleek shoe ASAP because its extra padding and Flywire technology are everything you've been dreaming of. How do we figure? Well, because runners tested the sneakers to ensure they were as cooling, flexible, supportive and durable as possible during short and long-distance runs. But don't just take our word for it. The shoe has more than 500 reviews, and most rave about how great they feel while they're putting in the work. One reviewer even says they're the reason they don't get splints anymore when running. "Moreover, I was able to run double the distance with these shoes. Maybe I could always run a mile; I just had the wrong shoes," another shares.
