Men's trainers: buy Nike, Adidas and others at a good price

Updated 20 October 2026

The model, not just the brand

“Nike” means hundreds of models with different prices, cushioning and purposes. The Nike Air Max 90 and the running Pegasus have little in common apart from the logo. So the exact model name and colourway in your request immediately cut out unwanted offers.

Also decide what the trainers are for. For running you need cushioning and a breathable upper, for the gym a stable sole, for basketball a high profile, and for trail running an aggressive tread. Everyday “lifestyle” models are bought mostly for looks, and are not to be taken for regular running.

Original, replica or second-hand

Here the price depends most strongly on the answer to this question. Replicas look similar outwardly, but often wear faster and cushion worse. So if you need an original, write “original only” and ask for photos of the tag, the box and the sole.

Second-hand trainers can be a good buy if the condition is honestly described. Look at how worn the sole is and whether the cushioning has sagged: your comfort depends on it.

What to put in your request

• Model: brand and exact name, for example Nike Air Max 90;
• Original or replica: what is acceptable to you;
• Condition: new in the box or second-hand, and what wear is acceptable;
• Size: UK size and insole length in centimetres, for example UK 9 (27.5 cm);
• Purpose: running, gym, basketball, trail, everyday;
• Season: summer with mesh, all-season or insulated for the cold north;
• Colour: white, black, others;
• Delivery city and budget: for example, up to RM 490.

Example: “I need new original Nike Air Max 90, white, UK size 9 (insole 27.5 cm), original only and in the box. Delivery to Shah Alam by courier, budget up to RM 490.”

How to compare offers

Compare only the same model, colour and size. Look at whether delivery is included in the price, whether you can try them on or return them, and whether real photos of the trainers are given rather than stock pictures. A price difference between sellers often comes from the origin of the batch and the terms, so ask where the goods come from.

On BlaBlaPrice you do not phone shops, you write one request. Sellers send offers in the chat and can see where their terms stand, so they compete. The best-value offer is shown first, with reviews of the seller next to it, and your contacts stay hidden. More on the “How it works” page.

Common mistakes

People take the size out of habit: it differs between brands and models. They buy mesh summer trainers for the cooler months. They trust catalogue photos instead of real ones.

For another season or style, look at canvas shoes, boots or sandals and slides.
