While there’s nothing better than bare feet when your child’s tootsies are still growing, it’s sometimes necessary to safeguard them with a pair of supportive and sturdy shoes. Fortunately, our favourite brand has a range of cute baby Jordan sneakers that are both stylish and supportive enough as they take their first steps and explore the world around them. So, let’s have a look at some of the models available for your mini sneakerhead in the making.
Jumpman MVP
The Jumpman MVP is yet another unique model honouring Michael Jordan’s legacy. The winning look is a combination of the kicks from Michael Jordan’s first three championships, but Jordan Brand has also made sure this miniature version has a hook-and-loop fastening method to make your life easy. So, these sneakers are not only adorable but they also provide the convenience of easy on and off for busy parents and infants.
Jordan True Flight
The Jordan True Flight is a wallet-friendly alternative to the sneaker it was inspired by, the Air Jordan 7. It offers a sleek design, comfortable cushioning, and a supportive fit for those little ones who are always on a mission. So, you still get the iconic Air Jordan look without the inflated price tag. We’d call that a big win for your budget.
Jordan 4 RM
Jordan Brand made sure not to overlook the young ones when they unveiled their newest silhouette this year, a remastered/low-top version of the AJ4. In order to make the design kid-friendly, elastic laces that stretch to provide a broad opening were added making it simple to put on and take off the shoes. They’re strong, flexible, and still soft underfoot so that kids can stay comfortable all day long. They are definitely a wallet-friendly alternative to the regular AJ4 silhouette.
Jordan 4 Retro
Right now, the Jordan 4 is the model of the moment in MJ’s signature shoe lineup, and there’s no reason why your child shouldn’t get in on the action, too. These mini-sized AJ4s feature the iconic mesh panelling and wing eyelets that made the original so popular. Plus, the durable rubber outsole provides traction for all their playtime adventures. However, they are somewhat more expensive, which is always something to take into account if they won’t get a lot of wear.
Jordan 3 Retro
With the same classic elephant print details and timeless design, these mini-sized AJ3s may be a tenth of the size, but they still deliver a major style punch. What’s more, you can rely on the model’s flexible foam midsole for lightweight cushioning and rubber in the outsole for increased grip to guarantee your youngster feels secure and comfortable when they’re finally up and about.
Jordan 1 Retro High OG “Black and Gold”
There’s nothing quite like matching with your mini-me, and these elegant “Black and Gold” Jordan 1 Highs provide the perfect opportunity to do just that. With their sleek colour scheme, leather uppers, and strong rubber outsoles, you and your little one can tackle those first steps together in style. It’s a perfect first pair for a little sneakerhead in the making.
Jordan 1 Mid
Even infants have the difficult choice between the Jordan 1 Low and Mid styles. The mid-top, of course, has a higher cut for more ankle support while retaining the classic design that will keep your child looking fresh from head to toe. And for an additional $5 USD, you can purchase a Special Edition version of the model with unique details and fabrics that elevate the design to a new level.
Jordan 6 Rings
When your little one takes their first steps towards greatness, they can be sporting this cool hybrid sneaker that combines elements from all six of Michael Jordan’s championship-winning shoes. But parents will find it much easier to put these mini versions on their children’s feet thanks to the convenient pull tabs and hook-and-loop straps on this version. These Jordans are unquestionably a chic and practical option to start off your baby’s shoe collection.
Jordan Flight Club ’91
This tiny version of the Jordan Flight Club ’91 is the epitome of retro flair. But appearances aren’t everything. This sneaker features a soft, flexible sole for flexible cushioning, non-marking rubber parts on the outsole for grip, gently cushioned inner weave booties for comfort, and, of course, a hook-and-loop strap for effortless on/off. When your child takes their first steps in these kicks, you can be sure they will be supported, comfortable, and stylish.
Jordan Pro Strong
To mark its 25th anniversary, the 1998 original—which Vin Baker memorably wore—made a return in 2023. To guarantee that the younger generation was part of the festivities, Jordan Brand made sure to include a smaller version of the iconic sneakers in their comeback. These adorable Jordan sneakers are sure to make hearts melt as your child takes their first strides in style while also ensuring they are comfy and supported. To learn more: Sneaker Fortress
