The Brooks Ghost 16 made our list of best running sneakers thanks to the tremendous amount of support it offers. The shoes have a soft midsole and a segmented heel pad that aids in smoother heel-to-toe transitions, according to the brand. The upper is made from breathable mesh to prevent sweaty feet and the rubber sole is lightweight.
Another of our favorite running shoes, these have a rocker-shaped outsole to promote easier heel-toe transitions and are currently 29% off. They have a breathable mesh upper structured to provide support and cushioning in the sole to give a bouncier feel.
These sneakers from Reebok have an old-school ‘80s look and are intended for casual wear. They have a leather upper and a durable rubber sole that offers strong traction, according to the brand.

These shoes were on our list of best walking shoes. Ryka designed these shoes with women’s feet in mind — they have a narrower heel, roomy toe box and cushioning at the midsole. The outsoles offer grippy traction and additional cushioning in the forefoot and heel for comfort.

These unisex sneakers have a vintage look and are suitable for walking or casual wear. NBC Select associate reporter Bianca Alvarez finds the suede exterior is easy to clean, saying she only has to throw them in the washing machine, and they look barely worn.
These slip-ons can be put on hands-free by simply slipping your feet in them, according to the brand. They have a molded heel cup to cradle your foot, a cooling memory foam sole and the knit upper is breathable and conforms to your foot for sock-like comfort, according to Sketchers.
