Hoka Black Friday Kids' Running Shoes

Hoka Black Friday cushioned running shoes for kids

A thicker midsole absorbs more of the repeated impact that comes with longer runs, which matters once a child moves past casual play into cross country or club athletics training sessions. The wider base underneath also helps with stability at that softer cushioning level, so the extra height doesn't come at the cost of feeling wobbly underfoot. Our ASICS Black Friday range is worth comparing if running is the main use for this pair.

Extra cushioning for kids running longer distances

Because the sole sits higher off the ground than a standard shoe, it's worth a proper fitting rather than assuming the usual size translates across brands. The Fit Squad can check both feet and talk you through the fit while you're in store, extra sole height and all, particularly if this is the first time you've tried a maximalist running shoe. The full Black Friday shop has everything else on markdown if you're comparing brands side by side.
