Nike’s Slip-on Running Sneaker Is All Flex
When it comes to Nike's Flex Runner 4, it's really all in the name. The running model is literally all flex.
It's a fashion flex. It's flexible by design. Oh, and it even features flex grooves on the outsole, which gives the shoe a solid grip.
Its sleek design features stretchy uppers that create a comfy, almost sock-like feel. At the same time, it's laceless, so the shoes are easy to put on and take off.
And although there are no laces, a strap wraps around the shoe, helping keep the foot secure and locked in place during the ride.
Nike's Flex Runner 4 pretty much carries on the lace-free tradition of previous versions. However, it does feature an improved strap and collar, making it a more durable runner. Basically, Nike made it so the shoes work hard while you play harder. Well, your mini me, that is.
Yep, Nike's Flex Runner 4 is indeed a kids' model, which is now available on the brand's website starting at $52. The sneaker comes in numerous colorways, like "Mystic Navy," for the sneakerheads of the future.
It may feel like the littles ones always get the good stuff (and they do), like fluffed-out "Yeti" Dunks and the coolest galactic sneakers. But don't worry, adults. Nike's got slip-on runners for you, too.
