Back to school has arrived! As kids are out to make the most of these last few weeks of summer, parents are starting to gather up all the supplies necessary to get the kids off to a great start. We’ll help you cross one thing off your list with our fall school shoe lineup. Here’s a look at some of our favorite gym shoes for the season.
Talon by Jambu
Made with breathable knit uppers and cushioned soles, the design for the Talon was inspired by falcon feathers to drive kids to new heights. Adjustable hook-and-loop closures allow for a custom fit that kids can do themselves, and the rubber outsole provides superior grip for indoor and outdoor fun.
Peek-a-Shoe by KEEN
That’s right, KEEN is not just for summer! The wide opening and adjustable straps make it easy for kids to get themselves ready to go. The contoured arch provides added support for growing feet and the Cleansport NXT technology prevents them from getting too stinky!
Ty from Plae
This shoe has made a return every fall for a reason: it’s made to endure everything a running, jumping, flipping, flopping kid can unleash on a shoe while providing a customizable fit for every foot. Interchangeable tabs let kids add a bit of personalization, and it comes in fuschia, navy, pink, and stardust blue so there’s a style for every personality.
Peregrine Shield by Saucony
Besides having a really cool name, the Peregrine Shield from Saucony is another rugged and durable choice that will keep kids going strong all day long. The upper is made from leather and water-resistant mesh and the lining is antimicrobial treated to reduce odors. Saucony has been a leading name in athletic shoes for kids and adults, and the Peregrine Shield comes in Navy, Blue, Orange, Green, Red, and combination colors so there’s a style for everyone.
Storm from Tsukihoshi
Tsukihoshi designs shoes specifically for growing feet. Wide toe boxes allow toes to spread out for superior balance and extra comfort. The special heel stabilizer helps kids stay steady, and arch support helps feet grow in a healthy way. We love the ultra lightweight construction, kids love the easy-on and easy-off technology, and parents love the natural, green-tea infused insole that kills odor-causing bacteria.
As always, we recommend a professional fitting whenever you get new shoes for your little ones. Feet grow fast and every foot is different. Getting the best fit means healthy feet, happy kids, and long-lasting shoes. Stop in for a free professional fitting today!
