Toddler & Infant Black Trainers & Shoes

Start them off on the right foot with our infants' black trainers. We make our junior-size shoes with high-performance materials to keep little feet supported, taking them from crawling to walking with ease. Durable traction, breathable uppers and super-soft foam ensure maximum comfort. Plus, all of this is wrapped up in iconic style features that will make grown-ups jealous.

Trainers with a barefoot feel

Healthy foot growth is essential for an infant's muscle development, balance and coordination. That's why our range includes black shoes for toddlers that promote natural foot development. We do this through flexible outsoles that allow young feet to bend and move naturally for a barefoot feel. Low profiles mean the feet can interact directly with the ground, so children can train their balance and coordination skills. Meanwhile, wide toe boxes give little toes plenty of room to splay and flex for a wider range of motion.

Built to take the rough and tumble

Once kids have learned to walk, there's no stopping them. Look out for black toddlers' trainers made from breathable mesh. It's lightweight enough to make getting around easy, and tough enough to handle any surface your kid wants to explore. Stable cushioning helps support their arches and ankles. Meanwhile, flexible grooves in the outsoles help each step feel natural. And because adventuring can get a little messy sometimes, our younger kids' trainers are built to withstand plenty of wear. We're talking gentle reinforcement where it counts—in the toes, sides and heels.

Easy-on to power through busy mornings

We've focused on game-changing details for parents like elastic laces and hook-and-loop fastenings that let you get shoes on and off lightning fast. Find black toddlers' trainers with our EasyOn technology, which empowers kids to dress themselves so they can focus on playing. The lace area opens like a book, so even the squirmiest feet can slip right in, while quick-to-secure straps let you adjust and secure the fit. Look out for stitched-down laces on some styles that give you the classic look of trainers without the faff.

Steady as they go

Learning to walk can be a wobbly affair. From their first steps to running laps around the garden, it can take children a few months until they're walking with confidence. That's why our black trainers for infants feature grippy soles to give them the traction they need as they find their footing. Meanwhile, soft foam underfoot delivers loads of cushioning when they really start to move.

Keeping future generations in mind

We want tomorrow's athletes to enjoy our beautiful planet just as much as we do. Nike's Move to Zero is our journey towards zero carbon and zero waste to help protect the future of sport. To join us, choose black trainers for toddlers with the Sustainable Materials tag. It means we've made the shoes with at least 20% recycled content. Think durable polyester spun from old plastic bottles, carpets and fishing nets diverted from landfill.
