Deal of the day: Get 41% off Hoka Mafate Speed 2 trail running sneakers


These sneakers are technically intended for trail running, though you could easily wear them for more casual outings, too. They have deep lugs on the soles to provide traction on unstable ground and highly cushioned soles to absorb impact as you hit the ground, according to the brand. The sole is also designed with a rocker shape to help propel you forward as you run.
The uppers have mesh paneling for ventilation and rubber that extends from the soles up over the toe to prevent wear and tear in that area.

The shoes come in four different colors — all of which are on sale from 20 percent up to 41 percent off.
