These kids’ shoes are supportive and cushioned and comfortable, allowing your kids to focus on the game in front of them. Support their dreams with basketball shoes that will help them achieve their goals.
Dream On
With the right basketball shoes, anything is possible. A great place to start for your kids is our collection of kids’ Nike basketball shoes. A classic option is the Air Force 1. It’s the shoe that helped usher in the era of sneaker culture, and it’s still going strong. The upper is made with durable, yet breathable materials, while the Air-Sole unit absorbs impact. The rubber outsole offers ideal traction and court control. Or check out the Nike Kyrie 8. Breathable textile keeps their feet cool, even in the most intense games, while the lightweight, flexible silhouette allows them to cut and crossover on a dime.
They’ll love kids’ Under Armour basketball shoes, particularly the Curry 8. These have a breathable, lightweight Intelli Knit upper that combines with synthetic overlays for strategic support. The UA Flow cushioning technology provides incredibly lightweight bounce and comfort, while the flexible Pebax Plate adds tremendous stability. That is combined with a bootie construction for a sock-like fit. The UA Flow outsole gives off a better court feel and traction.
Of course, when you think of basketball shoes, you probably think of the GOAT. Our selection of kids’ Jordan basketball shoes honors the legend himself. Your kids will love the Jordan Retro 12. It’s a throwback version of the shoe His Airness wore for his fifth championship. It has a full-grain leather upper for a comfortable feel. Under the foot, there’s a rubber outsole with a herringbone traction to bring security with every step.
Looking for more? PUMA’s Basket Classic checks all the boxes. The rubber midsole is super comfortable, while the lightly padded collar and tongue give all-day and all-game cushioning.
