How to choose basketball shoes for children

For the little ones (ages 6 to 10) the priority is ankle support and lightness: models like the Adidas Initiation or the Under Armour Lockdown are designed to withstand outdoor courts and support the quick movements typical of youth basketball. For older kids (ages 12 to 18) the choice expands towards signature shoes like the Adidas AE 2 by Anthony Edwards, the Jordan Luka 77 by Dončić, or the Puma MB.05 by LaMelo Ball: technical models that do not compromise on style.

Frequently Asked Questions — Children's Basketball Shoes

What size basketball shoes should I get for my child? Never buy shoes too big "because they will grow into them." For basketball shoes, the right size is essential — the foot must be well contained during jumps and changes of direction. A shoe that is too big causes instability and risk of injury. Measure your child's foot and choose the correct size, with at most half a centimeter of margin at the toe.

What is the difference between PS and GS shoes for children? PS (Primary School) are the smaller sizes — from about 27 to 35 EU, for children aged 4 to 9 years. GS (Grade School) are the medium sizes — from about 35.5 to 40 EU, for kids aged 9 to 14 years. GS models have the same technologies as adult shoes — ZoomX, Zoom Air, NITRO — while PS models are simpler and lighter.

Children's basketball shoes Nike or Adidas? Both are excellent. Nike and Jordan have the widest selection in Italy with signature models from the NBA players most loved by kids — Jordan Luka, Nike Giannis, Nike Sabrina. Adidas with the AE line by Anthony Edwards is the most requested by young enthusiasts. The choice often depends on the child's favorite NBA player.

How much to spend on a child's basketball shoes? Between €45 and €65 you will find good quality entry-level shoes. Between €65 and €90 is the best quality/price range for those who train regularly. Over €90 are the signature shoes with adult technologies — ideal for those who play intensely or want the shoe of their NBA idol.
