Asics Gel-Contend 8: was $70 now $54
Both the men's and women's Gel-Contend 8 have been reduced for Prime Day, with the discount available on a wide range of colors and sizes for both. While it's not as comfortable and durable as top Asics shoes like the Gel-Nimbus and Gel-Kayano lines, the Gel-Contend is a good shoe for new runners, with plenty of soft cushioning in the midsole.

Asics Gel-Venture 9 Trail: was $75 now $59
The Asics Gel Venture 9s are designed for off-road adventures and both the women's and men's shoe are reduced to $59 in the Prime Day sale. That's a great price for this trail-running shoe, which has an outsole that grips well on rough terrain and is also a good lightweight option for hiking.

Asics Gel-Kayano 30 (women's): was $160 now $99

Asics Gel-Kayano 30 (women's): was $160 now $99
The Gel-Kayano 30 is a stability shoe that offers a supportive ride that's great for any runner racking up a lot of miles, perhaps while marathon training. The women's shoe has been reduced to under $100 in the sale, while the men's shoe is going for $109, with lots of colors and sizes available for both. I've tested the Kayano 30 and the newer Asics Gel-Kayano 31, and the differences are minimal, so I'd grab the older shoe in this sale.

Asics Novablast 3: was $140 now $119

Asics Novablast 3: was $140 now $119
While this $21 discount is not a huge saving, and the Novablast 3 might yet drop below $100 for Black Friday, this is an excellent all-rounder running shoe that's both comfortable and quick and it's worth flagging it up at this price. Both the women's and men's Novablast 3 are reduced in the sale, with lots of colors and sizes available.

Asics Gel-Nimbus 25: was $160 now $119

Asics Gel-Nimbus 25: was $160 now $119
The Asics Gel-Nimbus 25 is a max-cushioned running shoe that offers the last word in comfort. Both the women's and men's shoe have been reduced to $119 in the sale, which is a good price, though I harbor hopes the shoe might drop below $100 for Black Friday. I've tested the Gel-Nimbus 25 and newer Gel-Nimbus 26, and they are very similar, so the older shoe offers better value with this deal.
