Some of the Best Workout Shorts Around Are on Sale Right Now
Save 30%: A crucial aspect of any workout is comfort — not just how your body feels, but what you’re wearing. It’s why the perpetually active can debate the merits of even the simplest piece of clothing, like a pair of shorts: details like pocket placement, waistband material, and whether they include a built-in liner means the discerning consumer will find significant variability among available products.
That’s why a number of brands are tackling the finer points of workout shorts — for the gym, for running, for yoga and more — in creative (and comfortable) ways. Many of our favorite models, including those preferred by professional trainers, from brands like Ten Thousand, Rhone, Wolaco and more are currently on sale at Huckberry for 30 percent off. — Tanner Bowden
Reebok CrossFit Nano and Floatride Run Sale
Save 40%: Today, you can pick up a pair of Reebok’s best-selling CrossFit Nano 8 gym shoe and the Floatride Run — both on sale for over $50 off. Each training-approved shoe is just a tad over $70, which is a steal for a sneaker that’s a winner in our Best Gym Sneakers guide. While the Nano sneakers are built for CrossFit, they make great gym sneakers, whether you prefer lifting weights and using machines over rope climbs and handstand pushups.
The best news of all is that Reebok’s massive spring sale doesn’t just include sneakers — you can take an additional 40 percent off all items including apparel and Classics. While not every single color is on sale, be sure to use code GETMORE at checkout.

Wirecutter recently named as one of the best 4K TVs for gamers. It’s a QLED TV, meaning it uses Samsung’s Quantum Dot technology and produces brighter colors and better contrast than more affordable 4K TVs by the likes of TCL and Vizio (all of which use standard LED technology).
