Boys' Running Trainers(23)

The next generation of athletes deserves the very best footwear. That's why we design and make our boys' running shoes with the same pro-quality materials we use for our adult range. Expect attention to detail in all areas, from padded collars that help prevent chafing to durable outsoles built to last. Whether you're kitting out teen athletes or introducing toddlers to their first pair of trainers, comfort is key. The world is their racetrack and our trainers are with them every step of the way.

Kid-friendly silhouettes

We knew we were onto something special when we first launched our boys' running trainers. And we've kept moving forward ever since. Our first shoes were inspired by the waffle iron. We still add these recognisable grooves to our iconic soles today—they deliver grip and durability to every step. And, since we know how much wear kids' shoes have to handle, we've added reinforced toe tips and one-piece uppers for seamless comfort. Plus, pull tabs on the heel make them easier to step into because playtime starts now.

Trainers for every surface

Wherever and however your aspiring athlete likes to run, we have an outsole design to suit their chosen terrain. For tricky trails, boys' running shoes with deep treads and broad soles provide stability on wet and muddy surfaces. Meanwhile, our styles with durable, abrasion-resistant rubber outsoles will see them through every mile—ideal for the road or track. For younger kids, we make our running shoes with strategically placed grooves. These allow a full, natural range of motion.

Cushioning for growing feet

When slowing down isn't in their vocabulary, we're here to support every stride. A pair of well-cushioned shoes is a must to give kids the protection their growing joints and muscles need. Discover our boys' running trainers with Nike Air units, which use innovative technology to spring into every step. They provide exceptional shock absorption and a responsive feel. We've combined that with soft, lightweight cushioning that runs from the toe to the midsole for next-level comfort.

Shoes that breathe

From park runs and PE lessons to lightning-fast sprints and endurance events—running hard means working up a sweat. That's why we craft our boys' running shoes from lightweight materials that let feet breathe. Expect targeted ventilation to high-heat areas so kids stay cool and focused for longer. Plus, you'll find a choice of lace-up and hook-and-loop fastenings for all preferences and ages. Even little kids can get out of the door in a flash, thanks to shoes that fit snugly onto constantly active feet.

Looking to the future

Nike's Move to Zero is our journey towards zero carbon and zero waste to help protect the future of sport. To join us, choose boys' running trainers with the Sustainable Materials tag. It means we've made the shoes with at least 20% recycled content. Think durable polyester spun from old plastic bottles, carpets and fishing nets diverted from landfill.
