At Women’s Health, our editors take their walking shoes seriously. We’ve tested dozens of styles for hundreds of hours, so we can make the most informed recommendations to our readers. From the best walking shoes for flat feet to the best treadmill walking shoes, some of our favorites are currently marked down.

The best overall walking shoe our editors have tested—the Hoka Mach 6—is 20 percent off right now! It was even named the best walking shoe in our WH 2025 Fitness Awards due to its super plush construction, wide sizing, and benefits for knee pain. “It’s my favorite recovery shoe after long runs because of its flexible lightweight build and plush cushioning that doesn’t aggravate my knee pain,” says Fitness Commerce Editor Nicolette Accardi. “The cushioning also doesn’t feel bulky compared to other Hoka models, such as the Bondi 8.”

Also on sale this week is our best budget walking shoe pick: the Skechers Go Walk Joy Sneaker. This slip-on shoe is lightweight and made from breathable mesh, which is ideal for sweaty feet. For quick trips to the store or walking the dog, the no-frills walking shoe style is our go-to.
