A Ton of Cole Haan, Sperry, and Other Men's Shoes Are Already on Sale Ahead of Prime Day 2024—Shop These 7 ASAP

From summer sandals to hiking boots, there's something for everyone ahead of the markdown mania.

With Amazon Prime Day 2024 days away, many are taking stock of the power tools, fitness equipment, and travel gear they're hoping will go on sale. Those looking for men's shoes, however, are already in luck—thousands of pairs of Amazon's bestselling men's sneakers, sandals, and boots have already received markdowns of up to 50% (or more, if you know where to look) just ahead of the big sale.

On Amazon, you'll find that the major footwear brands you know and love, like Cole Haan, Sperry, and Saucony, have already reduced prices on classics like the Grand Crosscourt sneaker, the A/O 2-Eye boat shoe, and the Guide 16 running sneaker. But there are also plenty of brands you may have never heard of before with deals on comfortable flip-flops and even hiking boots at jaw-dropping prices. After Men's Journal browsed through Amazon's early Prime Day deals on men's shoes, we found seven that are worth an immediate add-to-cart.

Cole Haan Grand Crosscourt Modern Perforated Sneaker in Black, From $66 (was $128) on Amazon

This classic perforated sneaker from Cole Haan is the perfect anytime summer shoe. It's wonderfully understated with a simple color scheme and falls somewhere between the preppy style of an Adidas Stan Smith and the sporty nature of a Nike Dunk. Feel confident wearing it with everything from shorts to khaki pants for all kinds of events this season, regardless of the formality.

What Shoppers Are Saying: "These were field-tested on a two-week vacation out of the box. They were comfortable and required zero break-in. Look great and fit true-to-size."

KuaiLu Yoga Mat Leather Flip-Flops in Khaki, $12 (was $20) on Amazon

These simple flip-flops from KuaiLu are Amazon's No. 1 bestselling men's sandals, and they're just $12 in this neutral brown color. They're loaded with arch support, so you won't just be walking on flat rubber all day, and there's truly something for everybody with over 25 different colors to pick from in sizes 7 to 16. While many are on sale, it's this particular khaki color that's the best deal.

What Shoppers Are Saying: "Better than expected…They’re of good quality and true to fit. The bottom reduces slips and is tough enough to comfortably walk around outside, even on some rocks."

Sperry Authentic Original 2-Eye Boat Shoe in Classic Brown, From $65 (was $110) on Amazon

Sperry's A/O 2-Eye boat shoe is a perennial Prime Day purchase for many, and select colors are already on sale ahead of the event. Prices seem to vary based on the combination of color and size, which is normal for many shoe styles on Amazon, but most are still between 20% and 25% off and a better price than you'll find at Zappos.

What Shoppers Are Saying: "I cannot count the pairs of Sperry topsiders I have bought throughout the years—they're the best summer shoes. You can wear them without socks without your feet getting sweaty or slimy. They wear like iron."

Florsheim Rubano Wingtip Oxford in Cognac, From $80 (was $130) on Amazon

The Florsheim Rubano in Cognac is a near-perfect dress shoe—trust me, I have them. It's very forgiving in the width, and always looks fantastic when paired with a pair of trousers for work or even a pair of jeans for that perfect smart-casual aesthetic. If you need a wide, I recommend buying it because, while they do stretch, they still come to a slight point at the forefoot.

What Shoppers Are Saying: "Fantastically comfortable…Great looking shoe and all day comfort. Can’t beat the price. More comfortable than my Cole Haans that were more than double the price."

Saucony Guide 16 Sneaker in Agave/Marigold, From $70 (was $140) on Amazon

The Saucony Guide is a beloved style that's sought-after for its pillowy cushion and slightly structured support for those who need it. It's super lightweight and breathable, which is perfect for summer running, and provides a smooth ride and comfortable underfoot experience, whether walking, jogging, or doing HIIT workouts.

What Shoppers Are Saying: "The last running shoe you will ever need…This shoe has the perfect amount of stability. It's not a maximal shoe but it's not a minimal shoe. It will do great on 3-mile runs and 5ks but it also won't let you down for marathon training or on race day."

Nortiv 8 Armadillo Ankle High Waterproof Hiking Boots in Taupe Suede, $43 (was $90) on Amazon

Nortiv 8's Armadillo hiking boots are some of the most underrated on the market, but then again, they're Amazon's No. 1 bestselling pair for men. These boots might not have the household name recognition that Merrell or Keen do, but they offer everything you'd want from a great boot—waterproofing, a hard-wearing upper, good tread, and toe protection.

What Shoppers Are Saying: "I have about 60 to 70 miles in these hiking boots so far. They're about on par with my Keens, but are much better than my Merrells. Took about 5 to 6 miles for them to 'form.' Did a 9-mile hike the other day and my feet felt great."

Hey Dude Wally Ascend Woven Slip-On Casual Shoes in Abyss, From $44 (was $65) on Amazon

Hey Dude's Wally slip-on shoes were a smash hit during last year's Prime Day sale, and they figure to be a big part of it this year as well. This pair is now under $50 and is the perfect color for everything from weekend outfits to your next vacation go-to. Make sure to grab one soon, though, because they tend to sell out fast.

What Shoppers Are Saying: "You can never go wrong with Hey Dudes! Comfortable, breathable, light and they look good with any outfit. Dress them up or down."
