OCTOBER PRIME DAY has come and gone, but if you’re looking to score some relatively affordable sneakers before Black Friday, Men’s Health editors recommend checking out On’s Last Season collection. For a limited time, the Swiss brand is offering up to 40% off older—but still excellent—styles, many of which happen to be some of the best On walking shoes we’ve ever tested.

SHOP ON’S LAST SEASON COLLECTION

Our team of Men’s Health editors has been wear-testing nearly every On sneaker for the past year, and the brand consistently earns top marks for its CloudTec technology—the pod-like midsole cushioning that compresses to absorb impact with every step. The Cloud X4, which we named On’s best overall walking shoe, is currently 20% off. Men’s Health Fitness and Commerce Editor (and resident sneaker expert) Charles Thorp, NASM, praises its versatility for light workouts and long walks with his daughter. “The inclusion of bouncy CloudTec cushioning is pleasant, but the shoe still maintains a relatively firm feel,” he said in his review. “That’s a bonus, because it means better ground feel along with that comfort.”

Another Last Season standout is the Cloudmonster 2, which we crowned as On’s most comfortable walking shoe. Its ultra-cushioned midsole rivals even Hoka’s Bondi line. For the past three months, I’ve laced these up for my daily two-mile walks with my two energetic corgis and haven’t had any foot pain since.

If you’re more of a power walker, look to the Cloudsurfer (30% off). It’s an earlier model of the Cloudsurfer 2—our pick for the brand’s best power-walking shoe—but it still delivers On’s signature cushioning and rocker shape that propels you forward with less energy.

I’ve been covering sneakers for a decade, and in my experience, we won’t see On’s prices dip this low again until Black Friday. If you’ve been meaning to grab one of the best walking shoes on the market at a more approachable price, now’s your chance.
