These Flex Runner 4s have been a great choice for my nephew. He’s always on the move and these shoes definitely keep up, whether he’s running, jumping, and climbing. I really like the triple black colorway because they always look clean, even after a full day of play. They are also very easy to hand wash or spot clean when needed. They are incredibly lightweight and breathable. His feet don’t get that stinky, even after hours of running around, which is a big plus. The pull-on design makes getting ready super quick. No laces to deal with, just slide them on and go. The flexible sole helps him move naturally, and the cushioning gives great support without adding any bulk. The only thing I would change is the midfoot strap. It works well for keeping the shoes secure, but I wish it had stretchier elastic. My nephew has wide feet, and a little more flexibility in that strap would make putting them on much easier. Overall, these are excellent shoes for active kids. They are stylish, durable, and easy to maintain. With just a small improvement to the strap, they would be perfect.

What's New
You spoke and we listened. For the Flex Runner 4, we updated the fit of the midfoot strap and the collar to help make these easy for kids to slip on and comfortable enough to wear all day.
Pull on and Go
Pull tabs on the heel and tongue work with a stretchy inner sleeve to help make these shoes easy for kids to put on themselves. Elastic straps run behind the heel and across the top of the foot to provide a snug, secure feel.
Play Anywhere
Flex grooves in the outsole add flexibility, helping every step feel natural. Multisurface traction works with sturdy foam that wraps around the heel to provide grip and stability when kids shift directions.
Durable Comfort and Support
We reinforced the toe box and used durable materials throughout to help these kicks stand up to how kids play. Soft, springy foam in the midsole helps cushion their every step.

Easy Everywhere Kids’ Shoe
Kristin B - Aug 08, 2025
The Nike Flex Runner 4 shoes are easy slip on shoes for the active child. They are simple with a light weight feel for kids to run about their busy day. The looks are pretty simple, so if you are looking for an eye catching shoe this is probably not what you are wanting. This shoe will be great for PE school days, trips to the park, and pretty much any other kid pastime. The shoes fit snug so you definitely do not want to consider sizing down. Stretchy straps make putting on the shoes quick and easy, while still providing a secure fit on your child’s foot. My child is typically rough on shoes and so far they have held up great. A good option for busy moms and active kids!
