I noticed a running theme while I was on vacation in Japan recently — a lot of people were wearing On sneakers. Tourists and locals were wearing them everywhere from the streets of Tokyo to the summit of Mt. Inari. Anecdotally, they seemed to pop up more frequently than the big shoe brands I usually see at home, like Nike and Adidas.

But why was I paying so much attention to everyone’s shoes? Well, mine broke! I was walking around the streets of Harajuku and (halfway to) the summit of Mt. Inari with my shoes’ soles hanging half-off.

I wish I’d known about On’s sneaker sale before I went on vacation. On is taking up to 40% off select styles right now and I could have spent my time relaxing instead of tripping over my feet!

I’m checking out the best discounts in On’s sale right now, so scroll down to shop the best deals with me. For more savings, see the deals I’d shop from $12 in Amazon’s New Balance sale.
