Dick’s has been hosting some excellent fall clearance sales as of late on everything from comfy hoodies and indoor fitness equipment to iconic weatherproof Nikes you can wear to and from the gym. The retailer has also marked down a slew of Brooks running shoes, and right now, there’s a pair selling for just $70 that shoppers are flocking toward.
Brooks Trace 3 Running Shoes are currently available and on sale at Dick’s Sporting Goods for only $70, a 30% discount on the original price of $100. With an impressive 4.5-star rating after its 80 reviews, it’s easy to see why customers have been loving the shoes, referring to them as “magical” and, as one Batman-loving shopper put it, “a footwear enigma wrapped in a cushiony riddle.” They’re available in the slick-looking Grey/Orange colorway and have all sizes from 8 to 15 available while supplies last.

Brooks running shoes have a loyal following, and the Trace 3s match that consistency. Thanks to its loaded tech design, this is an excellent daily trainer and an even better option for new runners. This shoe is feather-light at only 9 ounces and is an exceptional, responsive ride thanks to its ever-soft cushioning system, including the DNA Loft midsole that helps absorb foot-strike impacts. A segmented crash pad with sculpted grooves helps to absorb additional impact for an easy-flowing heel-to-toe-off transition.
Shoppers love how comfortable and smooth-riding these kicks genuinely are. “These shoes are everything a runner could dream of,” confessed one shopper. “If you’re looking for a shoe that offers great comfort and excellent durability…look no further.” As they jokingly mentioned, “Pavement trembles at the sight of them.”
Another shopper spoke similarly about these kicks, noting that they’re “super comfortable” and “light,” making it “easy to run” in them. “One of the most comfortable shoes I’ve run in, and can’t wait to run the Boston Marathon in them,” they added.
Brooks sales at Dick’s usually sell out quickly, so you may want to grab your pair of the Brooks Trace 3 sooner than later because, according to the retailer, “this item is popular,” and shoppers are scooping it up by the dozens.
