5. Fashionable slides to run errands in

6. Running shoes that help you hit the trail

With good grips and drainage, these are a great pair of trail shoes.

Running is hard of enough on its own, but once you hit a trail, it becomes much more challenging. These popular trail running shoes from Altra can help you run in the elements thanks to grippy soles that stick to rocky surfaces and tree roots and more drainage for when you land in a puddle. One of our editors loves this brand for running already, but she might be tempted to try trail running after seeing this sale.

You can get a great price on select styles and sizes of this durable, water-resistant jacket right now.

At this price, it might be worth the investment to make these small tasks easier.
