Get out the door in a flash with the Star Runner. Loops on the tongue and heel make it easy to open the shoe up wide so little star runners can step in and get going. Soft cushioning in the midsole provides a comfortable, springy feel so 1 more round, lap and turn is always an option. The tread grabs at pavement, grass and gravel to give them extra grip while a rubber-wrapped toe toughens up the construction so they can go further in the same pair of Star Runners.

I love the classic look of the black and white on the Nike Star Runner tennis shoes. My toddler was comfortable in them all day while playing. The best part about these was how lightweight they are! The only downside we found was when putting them on for the first time the elastic shoestrings seemed tight which made them difficult to get on. I would assume these will loosen up over time which will be perfect so my son can put them on independently. Overall we found these shoes worth it!

We’ve only had these shoes just over a week but they seem to be excellent quality and have held up great on my active, messy toddler. He loves that he can put them on himself and says they are very comfortable. I like the ribbed material that they are made from and appreciate that they go with most of his outfits. He wore them to soccer practice and they stayed secure and were easy to wipe off afterwards. From a parent of a 3 year old who wants to do everything himself, including putting on his shoes, I think these shoes are great and wouldn’t change a thing. Overall, we love the design and that they promote independence in our toddler. We will definitely buy them in the next size once he outgrows this pair.

From a mom who loves going on walks to the park, these shoes are a win! My daughter often walks on her tippy toes so flexibility and balance are important when picking shoes to us. These are slightly wider at the ball of your foot and have a good bend to them while still being supportive on her ankle. The fabric is great quality and the bottoms aren't showing much wear to them so they should last us for how ever long until she grows. The one reserve I have is how hard it is to get her foot in with the laces. Its not a big issue especially when they thankfully put a large enough loop on the back to actually get your finger in and I'm sure the more time that passes the easier it will become. Overall we both love them and she runs super fast!

The fit and feel of the NIKE STAR RUNNER 4 NN was not ideal. Getting my toddler into these shoes was a trial in itself. I believe the design of the shoe made it very difficult to fit my toddler's foot in as the tongue of the shoe was way too bulky making the shoe feel very constrained. The design is amazing with the classic branding on the side and clean black and white color, a shoe that would makes you feel proud to wear them. The fabric on the shoe is durable and great too as they will not wear quickly from outdoor use. If it were not for the tight fit, these shoes would for sure be five perfect stars, so we were very bummed about not being able to slide into these shoes easier.
Initially, I loved the shoes. Even my 3 year old loved them and even said “dad, I like these shoes. I like how they fit my food and don’t get loose when I put them on”. (Those here his exact words verbatim). 3 weeks after wearing them, the strap stitching broke and not looks like a dangling shoe string. For these to be for kids, I would have expected them to be a lot more durable than they are. I wouldn’t recommend these shoes if you have an active child. Mine did nothing more that walk, run, normal play, etc and they still broke.
As a product designer and parent, I can be a bit critical of the items that go on my kids. This is especially true when it comes to my toddler and footwear. When I first held these shoes in my hand, what first stuck out to me was how flexible the sole was. This characteristic is important since toddlers already walk like little drunken sailors. And a flexible sole is critical for their development as it doesn't interfere with their natural gait. The material choices are what you'd come to expect out of any Nike product and the same goes for it's construction all contributing to a quality product.One initial frustration was the process of breaking in the shoe. As most of you may have experienced, it can be near impossible to get a new shoe onto a toddler.

As most of you may have experienced, it can be near impossible to get a new shoe onto a toddler. In this case we did have to stretch the tongue/upper from the heel often. This isn't a design flaw, rather it simply being the nature of a new show and materials. Something that I did notice was the finger loop in the rear of the shoe could actually fit an adult finger in. And if you've ever had to wrestle a toddler to get their shoes on, that's a huge plus!The shoes turned out to be fantastic for our toddler. It was amazing to see her trot around just as easily and naturally as if she were barefooted. These are currently her choice since we've got them and that says a lot! The big plus for me was the finger sized rear loop which indicates to me the mindfulness put into this design over competitors.
These Nike's are the best when trying to find a good shoe that not only stay on when my 17-month-old runs around, but also, he can't pull them off. This is them!The design is very cute, and slick. The shoes themselves are lightweight, gorgeous, and yes, I said a shoe was gorgeous, but they can match all of my son's outfits. He loves to wear them and a lot of times you find shoes that don't fit right and causes kids to fall when running. Not these, they keep him balanced as he runs (we don't ever walk) everywhere.The only con or the only thing I would change is having a bigger tag at the back to allow, me as a parent, more to grab onto to pull them on. As I have with the shoe is it's a little harder to get them on my son's heel of his left foot. Not his right but ... MoreThese Nike's are the best when trying to find a good shoe that not only stay on when my 17-month-old runs around, but also, he can't pull them off.

These sneakers are super comfortable yet very cool.They have very wide front, my little one can wear them all day without complaining about sore feet. They are very easy to put on, my child can put them on and take them off independently. The material seems breathable, which keeps my kid's feet comfortable even during active play. They are also very durable. The robust outsole ensure they can handle the wear and tear of playground adventures and sports activities. Overall I feel confident knowing my child's feet are well-cared for in these sneakers.
My daughter loved putting on these shoes when we went outside to play. It was easy and comfy for her to run and jump in them and she didn’t complain to me that her feet were tight. There was enough room for her toes. Pro: there is elastic bands instead of laces which keeps the shoes on., and she doesn’t have to keep asking me to tie her laces. Cons: the white foam bottom can get dirty fast if playing around mud. But overall the design is classic and fitting for everyday outings. And if the fabric gets dirty it’s easy to clean.
As a mother of two little boys, it can be tricky to find snug fitting shoes that are still easy to put on your child. The fastening strings on these Nike’s make these shoes just flexible enough and get easy to tighten. The contrasting black & white, with the classics white Nike swoosh make your child look like the cool kid on the block. The shoes are made of a comfortable feeling fabric that is still cleanable. The design is well made, not too bulky, yet providing good stability. I would recommend these shoes to other mothers of littles.
