Nike Are Redefining Running For The Next Generation Of Children With The ‘Cosmic Runner’
15 November 2024

Nike have announced that they are redefining running for the next generation of children with the Cosmic Runner, a silhouette made just for kids.
The Cosmic Runner gives kids of all ages a superhero feeling, fuelling their rebellious spirit and making every step feel like a leap towards greatness. It’s also the first kids’ silhouette to feature layered haptic printing, which creates a 3D effect that adds texture and helps protect the mesh from scraping.
“The Cosmic Runner introduces technology that we’ve never used in kids’ running footwear before”, says Cal Dowers, VP, Global Kids. “We are committed to bringing innovation, combined with comfort and durability, that keeps kids playing, running and dreaming big”.
The Cosmic Runner is designed to be ultra-durable, flexible and comfortable for every stride, appealing to both young runners and kids looking to move with confidence from one activity to the next. The silhouette features a reinforced toe tip and full rubber outsole that incorporate Nike Grind, a pull tab that makes it easy to step into and a one-piece upper that eliminates seams, delivering added comfort.

The Cosmic Runner is available globally in a full run of kids’ sizes, from babies to older kids, at Nike.com and select retails.
