Whether it's a back-to-school wardrobe refresh or just stocking up for seasonal style, fall fashion means cool new sneakers, and there's no better place to start your search than at Nike right now. Nike just went live with its Gear Up for Fall Event, giving shoppers an additional 25% off select existing sale styles and even some popular full-price shoes. The sale runs through Aug. 20, but if you want any of Nike's more popular styles, you'll need to shop soon before they sell out.
Among the Nike sneakers featured during the sale are nearly three dozen running shoes like the Infinity Run 4 and the Vomero 17, each perfect for daily runs. A ton of Nike Air Max are also on sale, including the rarely-discounted Air Max 90s in the classic white colorway. Popular lifestyle sneakers like the iconic Killshot 2, Dunks, and select Jordans are also on sale. After Men's Journal browsed Nike's pre-fall sale, we found four styles that'll make perfect everyday sneakers for this coming season.
Nike Interact Run in Black/Anthracite/White, $45 (was $85) at Nike
The Nike Interact Run is the most value-packed running shoe on the site and one of the best deals during the sale. These basic but effective runners are great for daily runs outside, treadmills, and just for walking around thanks to its breezy Flyknit upper, thick and well-cushioned midsole, and high-traction outsole. Sizes 7 to 14 are still available in this colorway, but several others are still up for grabs, though sizes are starting to sell out.
What Shoppers Are Saying: "Could not love these shoes more. I have been needing more support in my shoes and these are comfortable, light, and have the perfect amount of support.

Nike Air Max 90 in Iron Grey/Dark Smoke Grey/Black/White, $98 (was $130) at Nike
As one of Nike's most iconic styles, the Air Max 90 doesn't often go on sale in classic colors, but right now, the brand is giving shoppers a chance to score it for less ahead of fall. This Air Max iteration took all the good parts of the original '70s release—like the visible air pocket and the waffle sole—and brought it into the modern era with updated styling and better comfort. You can find them on sale in this colorway as well as the all-white in sizes 6 to 15.2
What Shoppers Are Saying: "One of my favorite styles of sneakers, the black and white Air Max 90 is a standout. The black and white color combination gives this sneaker a distinct look that you can wear all year long."

Nike Killshot 2 Leather in Sail/Gum Yellow/Midnight Navy, $68 (was $90) at Nike
The Killshot 2 was brought back into view as a lifestyle shoe after a wildly successful partnership with J.Crew nearly 15 years ago. Today, guys everywhere continue to rock these low-profile shoes with pseudo-preppy looks because of their slimming lines, clean aesthetic, and perfect color-to-tone balance. You can score a discount on these go-to fall sneakers in seven colors right now, including all-white, white with red, and black.
What Shoppers Are Saying: "Perfect fit right out of the box and true to size. Super comfortable for all day at the office. Lots of compliments on them. A new favorite in the rotation."

Nike Air Jordan 1 Mid SE Craft in Pale Ivory/Legend Light Brown/Sail, $56 (was $135) at Nike
"Jordan 1 Mids for less than $60 with sizes still available" is a phrase rarely muttered, but right now, you can score these high-flying kicks for a song in a neutral colorway that's perfect for fall. Premium suede adds an alluring texture to these Nike icons that can't be achieved with normal leather, giving them a look akin to a chukka boot with the comfort of a sneaker. If you're into these, do not wait to get yourself a pair—sizes are already selling fast and are a near guarantee to be gone soon.
What Shoppers Are Saying: "These just arrived in the post. Absolutely beautiful trainers. Very pleased. Lovely materials."
