Super-Sale Alert: Select products featured in this story might be on sale for Prime Day! For more insider information on Amazon’s 48-hour event, consult our Shopping team’s curated guides to the deals that matter here.
If you’re in the market for new shoes — be it sneakers, heels, clogs, or sandals — you’ll likely find a pair or two that fit your style and budget during this year’s Amazon Prime Day event, happening on July 12 and July 13. While we won’t know how steep the actual discounts will go until the morning of, you’re welcome to employ our personal shopping hack: Scope out the shoe styles that are already on sale (which, oftentimes, are the ones that tend to get further discounted) and place them in your cart ahead of time to see if the pricing does dip on Prime Day. And, if it turns out that the price is right, all you have to do is smash that purchase button.
The throes of Amazon dot-com can be a dizzying place, so we sourced some of our fave shoe trends of 2022 that we’re coveting during e-commerce’s biggest week. And, yes, all of the pairs ahead are already on sale, which means if you don’t want to wait for Prime Day. We suggest you buy them now (before you risk seeing them sell out).
A few things to note: As with many Amazon products, only certain sizes and colorways may be on sale, so keep that in mind as you start clicking around for the best deals. Secondly, don’t overlook the treasure trove of “men’s” sneakers on sale, which are essentially unisex styles. To find your fit for a woman’s foot, just add two whole numbers to the men’s size for the women’s size equivalent — for example, a US men’s 5 is a US women’s 7. Now that you’ve been awakened to our best shoe-shopping tips for Amazon Prime Day, do us proud and score some sweet kicks below.
