The 10 Best Children’s Sneakers – Guidebook

Whether in children’s sports, kindergarten or school, you will not get around sneakers. When buying, certain criteria are crucial so that your child can do sports safely and comfortably. Our checklist will help you and the product recommendations below will make your decision easier.

Checklist For Children Sneakers

Size
  • Kids sneakers come in typical EU shoe sizes.
  • It is recommended to measure the child’s foot beforehand (at home or in a shoe store).
  • The shoe should be at least 1-1.5 cm longer than the foot in the front.
  • The fit can be easily determined by pressing your thumb on the top of the shoe where the child’s big toe is located. If there is some space in front of the thumb or toe, the size is appropriate.
  • If there are customer reviews, see if buyers* comment on whether the shoe runs smaller or larger.
Material
  • Most common upper materials are synthetic fabrics and (synthetic) leather. Most often, the shoe is coated – easy to clean and durable.
  • Breathable models provide a good climate for the feet.
  • The lighter the weight of the shoe, the more comfortable.
Closure
  • Depending on age and motor skills, the shoe closure should be chosen deliberately.
  • There are models with laces, Velcro and slip-on models without closure.
Health And Safety
  • A non-slip and shock-absorbing sole ensures maximum safety during romping and protects knees, ankles, spine and muscles.
  • For younger children, a Velcro closure or slip-on shoe is recommended so they don’t trip over open laces.
Range Of Use
  • Different sports require different types of shoes.
  • Soccer shoes are specially reinforced and padded and have cleats.
  • Basketball shoes usually have a higher upper for optimal support.
  • For running , good cushioning and shock absorption is especially important to protect joints and bones.
  • Most schools require 2 different athletic shoes, one pair for indoors and one for outdoors.
  • For outdoors, regular casual or running shoes are appropriate.
  • For indoors, a non-slip sole is important. Also, many halls only allow light colored soles.
  • A good all-around shoe for physical education and romping is a breathable running shoe with good cushioning and a non-slip sole. For special sports such as soccer or basketball, a model specially adapted to the sport is then recommended.
