Kids’ running shoes look the same as adults’, but they may have fewer technical details like extra-lightweight, adaptive foam midsoles or high-performance outsoles. Running shoes for young children and toddlers curve up at the toe, just like adult shoes that are made for pushing off with the toes. But they often have midsoles and outsoles that are designed to be multi-purpose rather than being intended only for running in. Running shoes for teens are often the same as the shoes made for adults, including technical midsoles and outsoles.
