Nike is a legendary athletic brand that’s been around for a while and knows a thing or two about everything sports. Athletes and amateurs alike love wearing that swoosh sign on their feet and on their bodies. The prices are fair, but not the cheapest, so it’s very important to find a good store where you will find what you are looking for without draining your savings. There are hundreds of stores where you can find Nike merchandise, so how are you supposed to know where to go for the best deals?

This is where we come in with our research and point you to the direction of affordable stores with a nice Nike selection. There is really no need to wait for the end of season sales at these stores to score a good deal. We will talk about shoes, but all of those merchants have plenty of athletic clothing from Nike too.

Finish Line

This place is always hard to resist due to their over 800 pairs of shoes at any given time with up to 60% off retail price. You can search based on price and brand or choose by collection name, for example, Nike Air Max or Nike FlyKnit. Check out Finish Line for Air Max and Jordan. If you do some research and price comparison, you will see some surprising price “diamonds” such as Nike Huaraches that are below $60 here and above $80 everywhere else.

Macy’s

Most of Macy’s shoes come from Finish Line with prices that are even less, offering Nike shoes in the range of $30-$50. Currently there are over 150 shoes all under $50. Macy’s rotates their merchandise and always get something new and exciting, so you will never be bored. One other place where Macy’s wins is the shipping cost – it’s free with $49 and even $25 sometimes. Look for trendy shoes like Tanjun, Air Max Sasha, LunarSolo, and Air Max Sequent.

Nike.com

Nike themselves are known for having a very good sales section and it’s definitely worth checking out. Every once in a while the merchant makes the deal even sweeter and offers 25% off clearance items. Then the prices are virtually unbeatable by anybody else and worth your attention. If you sign up for NikePlus Account, you will be eligible for free shipping on all orders.

The clothing choices at Nike.com are also amazing, so don’t leave without checking that too right after looking at all Nike shoes that are less than $50.

Kohl’s

Kohl’s are famous for great prices on everything and Nike is no exception. Some hard to find collections, like Arrowz, Air Zoom, and Winflo are available at Kohl’s. Those styles run for over $70 in many other places, but here you can get them at $40, which makes high free shipping threshold of $75 forgivable. Another tier of pricing starts at $70, but even that is 30% less than everywhere else.

Eastbay & Final-Score

Those two stores are related, so we grouped them into one category. The prices are similar and the assortment is huge. They carry many collections and styles, matched only by Finish Line. Eastbay offers free shipping on all orders, while Final-Score has $50 threshold. This $5 shipping fee gets offset by slightly lower prices than Eastbay.

Eastbay is very generous with coupons and shows them right on the home page. Final-Score carries over 5,000 Nike styles at any given time for every family member. 700 of those shoes are under $50, so there is definitely something for every taste and every budget. Given all the choices, be ready to invest some time in browsing and price comparison.

Academy Sports

Great prices and free shipping on $25+ orders are waiting for you here. While the variety of Nike shoes can’t rival that of Eastbay or Finish Line, the deals can, so give them a chance. Start your shopping at Hot Deal or Clearance section and you will definitely find something to smile about, like $40 Nikes.

Dick’s Sporting Goods

The unlikely contender based on pricing, Dick’s Sporting Goods does offer some deals worth considering on Thursdays. Thursday is their Flash Sale day, when many items are 50% off, including various Nike styles. This sale is short, kind of blink-and-it’s-gone, so buy fast. You will get free shipping on orders over $49 every day of the week and over 200 styles between $25 and $50.

If you want to explore stores beyond this list, use Google Shopping tool if you have a style picked out. You will find the lowest prices and get them compared to other merchants. Be aware that this tool won’t show special deals and shipping offers, so the price is approximate.
