These sneakers that rose to popularity in the 1990s saw a brief comeback in 2012 when they were all the rage again. Nike has been teasing that they are bringing some of their favourite Foamposite designs back in 2023. The latest one to rejoin the catalogue is the Nike Little Posite One in “Polarized Pink”. While these are a kiddies exclusive, and you might not be able to wear them unless you have tiny feet, if you want to add these adorable pink shoes to your kids’ sneaker collection, here is everything you need to know about these sneakers.

Nike Little Posite One “Polarized Pink”
As mentioned, these are being released in sizes exclusive to the youngest sneaker fans, but if your kids want to step out in style and show off these sneakers. At the same time, they play sports with their friends and keep reading.

Like with most Foamposite sneakers, the shoe’s design is uniform across the shell-like rigid upper, which has stayed the same for these kicks just because they are for kiddies. Unfortunately, because of their smaller scale, they are more detailed than some of the bigger sizes can be. Still, they are just as stunning and just as functional.

The colourway for these sneakers is the usual colour-blocking aesthetic that Foamposite sneakers sport, with bright pink covering the entire shell-like upper. But, at the same time, it has accents of black around the laces, pull-tabs, sock lining, and midsole area. What’s interesting about these sneakers is that Nike has tweaked the outsole’s design from their original line.

One thing that many customers complained about regarding the Foamposite sneakers is how the outsole would turn yellow over time because of it being a milky-opaque rubber. As usual, Nike is one step ahead, giving these sneakers a creamy, semi-translucent tread instead of the milky-white so that the natural yellowing as it ages will not be as noticeable.

Aside from that, Nike hasn’t strayed too far from the original design of the Anfernee “Penny” Hardaway-made favourite sneakers. The kiddies’ sneakers resemble the adults’ “Pearlized Pink”, released during the 2012 lineup.
