Nike running shoes are renowned for their top-tier performance on both pavement and trail. Recently, the Swoosh brand has released a series of great discounts on shoes like the versatile Pegasus Trail 5, the super-soft Vomero 17, and the must-have Interact Run, but that’s not all; Nike recently slashed the price of one of its rarely-discounted trail running shoes, and it’s currently under $100.

Nike’s Kiger 9 Trail Running Shoes are on sale for $97, a 39% discount off their regular price of $160. These streamlined trail running shoes have earned more than 100 five-star ratings from Nike shoppers, who say they’re a great choice for athletes who want a nimble, low-to-the-ground feel in their shoes. Two color options—green and white—are on sale and available in sizes 7 to 15, but some are already selling out.

The Kiger 9 is one of Nike’s best trail shoes. In this iteration, Nike shaved some weight off the shoe and lowered the stack height, which gives the Kiger a nimble, responsive feel—especially helpful when navigating rocky, technical terrain. The midsole is made of React foam, a well-balanced cushioning material that feels soft and flexible, and is paired with a high-abrasion rubber outsole with multi-directional lugs for locking traction and good durability. The engineered mesh upper breathes well, so your feet stay cool as you run, and the internal midfoot strap keeps your feet aligned in the footbed for a comfortable, secure fit.

Runners were impressed with the Kiger 9’s blend of traction, cushioning, and light weight. “I run on gravel, grass, and road, and it feels great on all surfaces,” one customer said. “It’s very breathable and lightweight, but doesn’t compromise on cushioning.” Another customer agreed, saying, “These shoes are very comfortable… The soles have great traction, and the cushioning is very flexible.”

Another shopper used their Kiger 9s for hiking and said they performed great. “After a few hikes, they became increasingly comfortable,” they said. “They feel light on my feet and I really notice the comfort on longer hikes.”

The Nike Kiger 9 is a solid choice for running on challenging trails, and at just $97, it’s also a standout deal. But don’t wait to grab a pair; these popular trail shoes are selling out fast and certain sizes are already sold out.
