Nike zoom pegasus turbo 2: Was £159.95, now £111.97, Nike.com
Whether you’re new to running or a pro with thousands of miles under your belt, shoes are arguably the most important piece of your kit and you can’t go wrong with this pair.
The Nike zoom pegasus turbo 2 has been updated with a feather-light upper, while innovative foam brings revolutionary responsiveness to your long-distance training. The shoe featured in our round-up of the best running shoes for men, with our reviewer praising it for ensuring you “always feel connected with the running surface”.
“This shoe combines two kinds of foam in order to give the runner a light and cushioned springboard that really takes the sting out of longer runs,” they said. “ZoomX is the foam that features in Eliad Kipchoge’s infamous “vaporfly” marathon trainers and here it’s been overlaid on a layer made from “react” foam, which is more durable. This has the effect of making the shoe really responsive when you want to pick up the pace.” Available in sizes UK 6-14.
Nike air max 2090: Was £129.95, now £77.97, Nike.com
A shoe in a brilliant spring-worthy colour palette, these Nike air max 2090’s deliver a bold look inspired by the DNA of the iconic air max 90.

The style won best buy in our round-up of the best men’s trainers with our reviewer saying: “Modelled on the original, this 2018 re-reissue features the same revolutionary levels of comfort the brand has become known for, housed inside a simple yet striking design. We're pretty sure the combo of mixed material uppers, gripped rubber soles and recognisable Swoosh accents would look good in any colour, but our favourite is this easy-to-style black and white pair, which will work with pretty much everything on the casual side of your wardrobe.” Available in sizes 5.5-14.
