Introducing the Kids' Nike Sonic Fly, A Budget-Friendly Running Shoe for Record-Breakers in the Making

Since its days as Blue Ribbon Sports, Nike has been committed to improving athletes' lives and sports by pushing the boundaries of their footwear. World records have been set and industries have changed forever due to this mission. And while the brand continues to develop innovative product for competitors of the highest level, it's recently taken a moment to meet athletes at a younger age than usual with the introduction of the Sonic Fly.

Informed by Nike Running's unrivaled Research & Development team, the Nike Sonic Fly is an all-new running shoe designed specifically for record-breakers in the making. Akin to the ethos behind the long-anticipated VaporFly 4, a silhouette that kicked off the super shoe market for the marathon, the Kids'-exclusive style is light, comfortable, and ready to go the distance.

The shoe has been fine-tuned to the exact specifications of children athletes, ensuring an enjoyable experience throughout the start of their running journeys.

Full-length, soft and bouncy ComfiRide cushioning delivers a responsive sensation underfoot, regardless of how you strike. The flex outsole provides robust rubber traction in a package that remembers one of Nike's most important running innovations of all-time: the waffle outsole.

Up-top, mono mesh material allows for enhanced breathability in a lightweight package. It also helps keep the Sonic Fly smelling fresh even after long sessions of sport or play. A pull tab on the tongue helps with easy-on-and-off wearability, while the laces and Dynamic Fit Band ensure top-caliber containment. The Little Kids' version features a Strap Closure and heel pull tab for a secure fit.

Nike's Sonic Fly is available in a healthy mix of exciting, vibrant color schemes and reserved styles—including "Hyper Royal" and "Barely Grape" options. Both sets of sneakers guarantee the same fun experience whether running around your school's gym or accompanying a parent in the last half-mile of their Sunday long run.

Little Kids' sizing ranges from 10.5C to 3Y and are priced at $65. Big Kids' pairs from 3.5Y to 7Y are available via Nike.com right now for a similar budget-friendly $70.

Happy running!
