Dick’s Sporting Goods is the place to shop this holiday season with a clearance section that is continuously getting stellar markdowns ahead of the Black Friday madness, and some of the most eye-catching deals are on popular running shoes. Dick's has chopped prices on top models from On, Asics, and even Hoka, but one of the best deals you'll find is on a pair of well-cushioned Puma running shoes that are over $80 off—and they're available in two vibrant colors.
Puma’s ForeverRun Nitro Running Shoes are now on sale for just $65 at Dick's—a 57% discount on the normal price tag of $150. While there are only a handful of customer reviews, these sneakers did earn a perfect five-star rating from those who felt inclined to do so. Right now, they’re available at this price in white or black, and both still have ample size availability from 8 to 13—for now.
This model Puma offers the latest Nitrofoam midsole, which is lighter than ever, and has two different layered densities to maximize your run: A softer core and a firmer outer rim with an asymmetrical heel counter that helps secure your foot while you run. This foam is nitrogen-infused to help make each stride as springy as ever while the reinforced upper provides the best durability and stability. Another cool feature is the guide rail system, which is made of firm-density materials to help keep your foot centered and aligned with each footstrike, ultimately helping to eliminate running-related injuries. These shoes also have a robust rubber outsole with a minimally aggressive traction pattern, allowing them to be used on all running surfaces.
“They are extremely comfortable and light," one shopper said. "The foam absorbs most of the shock and feels like running on a cloud, yet, they are breathable, so they won't get too hot.” They also loved how they could be used to rehab running injuries: “I have been recovering from Plantar Fasciitis, and these have been able to keep me moving while still providing great support and comfort.”
“Puma is changing running shoes for the better,” another shopper confessed. “I decided to give this ForeverRun Nitro model a try—it’s outstanding! The cushioning is excellent, shoes are responsive, light, and also very nice.” They also noted that Puma outperforms the competition. “I've gone through many brands over the years: Adidas, Asics, Nike, Mizuno, Brooks, Saucony, these are the best ones by far for me.”
With an excellent markdown like this, the Puma ForeverRun Nitro Running Shoes won’t be available for long. Grab yourself a pair, as sizes are beginning to run low.
