Nike shoe sales can be unpredictable, with Black Friday-style savings popping up throughout the year on some of its best sneakers. Right now is one of those times, with Nike offering extra discounts on top of already-on-sale styles. One of the best deals during the sale is on one low-key gym shoe that impressed even most loyal of Metcon wearers.

Typically $130, Nike’s Air Zoom TR 1 workout shoe is just $58 right now when you use the code CHILL25 at checkout—a total discount of 55% off. This under-the-radar gym sneaker has a near-perfect rating, despite only a handful of reviews, but it's one that shoppers rave about, citing its "lateral support" and "perfect fit." It's available in several colors in sizes ranging from 6 to 15. The price ultimately depends on the color you pick, but none are more than $68 after the additional discount.

While the instinct to use running shoes as gym shoes is understandable, the often squishy cushioning that aids in pounding pavement can be detrimental for exercises like lifting, where stability and firm footing are important. Nike’s Air Zoom TR 1 is designed to combine responsiveness with stability, giving you a boost when doing cardio but grounding you during lifts. The foam provides cushioned comfort, while the wide, stable heel locks the foot in place. The outsole borrows Nike’s iconic waffle tread for traction on unpredictable gym floors or pavement.

Several shoppers compared the TR 1 to Nike’s signature training shoe, the Metcon, and some even said it's better. “Very comfortable shoe that makes HIIT workouts awesome," one shopper said. "Sometimes in HIIT classes, we are required to run and it’s not comfortable in the Metcons. I use the Metcon for gym-only lifting and these for HIIT…I really like the sturdiness and cushion and the bouncy feel they have because it relieves pressure on the knees and back.”

Others simply like the shoe because it provides good support. “For my workouts, these shoes are perfect," another shopper said. "I lift light-to-medium weights and always do cardio and some circuits with these being the focus. The fit is true to size with the shoes being supportive and super comfortable and cushioning provided from forefoot through to my heel.”

If you’re looking for a versatile pair of workout shoes that can handle everything from cardio to lifting, Nike’s Air Zoom TR 1 is an understated style that's a worthy and less expensive option than the Mecton. It's a steal at just $58 right now, but you'll have to get it before the promotion ends on June 16.
