How did we choose the walking sneakers featured in this article?

We focused on models that combine cushioning, stable midsoles and breathable uppers - the three features we consider essential for spending hours on your feet - and prioritised options currently on sale for about US$100 or less (roughly under R1 800 as an estimate).

Which technical features matter most when buying walking sneakers on sale?

Prioritise a cushioned midsole with a firm heel counter for stability, breathable mesh uppers to reduce blister risk in summer, and removable insoles if you use orthotics.

How should I pick the right size and fit for walking sneakers in South Africa?

Measure your feet at the end of the day and add 5-10 mm to your longest toe, aim for about a thumb’s width between the longest toe and the shoe front, and favour 'wide' or roomier toe-box models if you have a broader forefoot; check whether the insole is removable if you use orthotics.

Where and when should we look on Bash to find the best sale deals for walking sneakers?

We watch seasonal clearance, brand-week promotions and public-holiday sales on Bash, use the Sneakers category and size filters to spot flash prices, and combine marked-down styles with promo codes when possible to bring higher-tier trainers into our target price band.

How we picked these walking sneakers on sale

We focused on models that combine cushioning, stable midsoles and breathable uppers - the three features that matter most when you spend hours on your feet. We prioritise sneakers you can buy now on sale for about US$100 or less (roughly under R1 800 as an estimate) and that work across local routines: errands, daily commutes, neighbourhood walks and light hikes.

Quick checklist for sale buys

Try for a cushioned midsole and firm heel counter for stability.
Look for breathable mesh uppers - fewer blisters in summer.
Check removable insoles if you use orthotics.
Verify return policy and sale exclusions before you buy.

Price guidance

Because currency and sales change, we show price bands in Rand. Aim for models that fall roughly between R700 and R1 800 on sale - that range generally captures solid walking sneakers under about US$100 at typical exchange levels. Treat the R figures as estimates and confirm the final checkout price on Bash before you complete a purchase.

Side-by-side at-a-glance comparison

Feature	On-sale budget walking picks	Higher-tier walking trainers (sale price)
Comfort & support	Soft EVA foam, modest arch support - comfortable for daily short-to-mid distance walks.	Advanced foam blends, better motion control and often a wider fit range for long walks.
Price (sale estimate)	R700 - R1 200 (budget sale deals; under approx. US$100). Estimates only.	R1 200 - R1 800 (on-sale prices can drop into our target band; labelled as sale estimates).
Best for	Everyday errands, short city walks, lighter weekend strolls.	Longer daily distances, mixed surfaces, walkers who need extra support.

How to use this table

If you walk 5-10 km a day, favour the higher-tier sale trainers when they fall into your budget. If you walk shorter distances or want more colour/seasonal styles, the budget picks often give better value. Use our category pages for quick browsing: Sneakers and Sneakers.

Where to look on sale

We recommend checking brand drops and seasonal sale sections on Bash, and using size filters so you don’t miss flash prices. When a style is marked down, confirm whether the discount applies to all sizes and colours - sometimes only selected variants reach the target price band.

Best walking sneaker types to prioritise in sale deals

Not every discounted sneaker is a good walking shoe. Here are the types we prioritise when hunting sales:

Lightweight stability trainers - firm heel support with a forgiving forefoot for a balanced stride.
Breathable mesh everyday trainers - lower price but good for short to medium urban walks.
Cushioned road-walkers - thicker midsoles for shock absorption on paved surfaces.

Practical buying steps (simple and fast)

Measure your feet at the end of the day; add 5-10 mm to your longest toe when choosing size.
Read sale fine print - look for return windows and whether sale items are final.
Try the shoes on carpet or with the socks you normally walk in; walk for 10 minutes before deciding.

Examples of sale strategies that work

We watch for three reliable sale moments on Bash: seasonal clearance (end of summer/winter), brand-week promotions, and public-holiday sales. Combining a promo code with a marked-down style often brings higher-tier walking trainers into our under-US$100 target. Bookmark the Sneakers category and check back when a size you need appears at the lower end of the sale band.

Sizing and fit notes for South African shoppers

Foot shapes vary across brands. If you have a wider forefoot, favour models listed as 'wide' or those with a roomier toe box. When in doubt, pick the size that allows a thumb’s width between longest toe and shoe front - that prevents toe compression on longer walks.

Consideration: If you use insoles or orthotics, check whether the insole is removable. Removing a thin factory insole often creates the extra space you need without affecting fit.

Final thought - shopping calmly and confidently

We want your next pair to make walking easier, not more complicated. Start with the sale bands above, compare two or three shortlisted models in your size, and use Bash's category pages to filter by price and size. Need ideas? Browse the Sneakers hub for women or the Sneakers hub for men - they’re the quickest way to find sale items that meet the walking features we recommend.
