The AM95 doesn’t follow trends—it sets them. First in the Air Max lineup to break from the established AM look, the '95's airy mesh and rippling layers of synthetic leather are meant to mimic the human form. Thirty years later it still retains the same rebellious spirit, innovative tech and game changing comfort.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A strong choice if you want a stylish, durable sneaker for your toddler. Great for casual wear. Can’t deny it’s an iconic look. Cons are that I don’t think the toe box is super wide, and they seem a bit stiff.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son is known for his stylish shoes so these don’t disappoint! They’re lightweight and flexible enough for all-day play. The fit is secure without being too tight, and the slip-on/Velcro design makes them so easy to get on and off (a lifesaver for busy mornings or just getting out the door at any moment). The cushioning looks like it gives great support but for this style of AirMax I keep an eye on how his toes are doing because I have a pair as well and sometimes throughout the day there’s a sense of crowding at the toe area (though I’m always on my feet). Though I check the top to feel where his toes are and ensure they have enough space, my son says the shoes feel good so that’s what I can really go off of. So far the soles hold up well to running, climbing, and exploring. He really loves running so it’s important for his shoes to be able to maintain. Plus, the colors are practical and stylish—my calls them his “fast shoes” when picking them out! Overall the fit works well if your toddler does not have flat feet or are “toe-walkers”.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm continuing to introduce my son to some of my favorite sneakers and this pair of air max 95s are great. Stylish and comfortable for my toddler to wear, and a great way to celebrate the 30 year anniversary of a classic.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] At first glance these Nike Air Max 95 Recraft Baby/Toddler Shoes are just too cute! I love that they are true to size and fit perfectly. I really like that these shoes have laces. They make putting on the shoe very easy. The design of this shoe is incredible, never thought a shoe so small like this would look great. I was surprised how light weight these shoes are they did seem like they be heavier. A light weight shoe is always a plus makes it easier to walk. The classic black color with blue in the shoe and the logo on it is so beautiful. Makes it easy to style the shoes with an outfit. Overall I really like the style of shoe it. The lace makes putting on shoes quick and let’s not forget it’s an attractive style. The only change I would make is maybe more available colors to the shoe for more casual wear.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These shoes are cute but I will be honest and say they are not my favorite. Once on my guys feet they just look abnormally small and almost as if they are platforms. I think it’s just the style, they fit him well and he likes them. I wish that these had the ez-on feature instead of the full on laced with ties. At his age and size it’s just extra work to have to deal with tying the shoes. I also feel like these are heavier than your typical Nike toddler shoes. When I first tried them on him he was walking around like a clown with oversized shoes on! He kept lifting his feet up abnormally high to take a step, it was very funny to watch. He’s better now that he’s worn them a few times but they definitely aren’t light. Overall I’d say these are great shoes and very stylish, he does get lots of compliments on them. I just wish there were a few minor differences. Would it stop me from buying them again? No not at all. Just some things to consider and maybe buy when he’s a little older.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The sneakers are a bit heavy and bulky for my toddler. Unlike other sneakers she can be active in, I would suggest this for a more casual and low activity wear. The material and the style is nice to match with parents, and the laces are long enough to get a double tie in them to prevent my daughter from untying her shoes randomly. It’s nice to pair with for family pics and light wear. I would give this a higher rating if it were lighter and easier for my toddler to move around in. Although she can run in them, I can visually see that they are slightly heavier than other pies she owns.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Solid pair of shoes for a toddler learning laces. As always, love how these shoes look just like the full size adult version. These shoes are super stable with the solid rubber sole and are easy to put on and take off with the mesh upper. My daughter loved the pops of color throughout the design and couldn’t wait to find socks to match. While these shoes won’t be the first choice if we’re going for a long walk or anything with a lot of moving around these are great for casual wear and will go with a lot of outfit options. I would definitely recommend these for anyone who has other 95s themselves and wants the little one to have the same.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Nike Air Max 95 Recraft Sneakers are so cute and classic for my son. They are very durable and have got a lot of traction so not worried about slipping. We love the particular shade of blue on this pair!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s a very solid choice if you want something stylish, durable, and reasonably comfortable for everyday wear. It may take a little time to break in, and initially may feel stiff. If your child walks a lot, you’ll want to make sure there’s enough wiggle room (maybe size up a bit). Because of the materials and structure, it will offer better protection than softer, minimal shoes, which is good for active kids.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently got the Nike Air Max 95 Recraft toddler shoe. These things are performance monsters. Honestly, they look like a tank and are built to last. Well built. These toodlers don’t stand a chance against these. My kid wants to wear them every day, so I’m assuming they’re comfortable. The look of these brings some retro vibes, very cool with the mostly black and baby blue. Not a huge fan of toddler shoes that tie up, but the laces/shoes on these are flexible enough that it makes it easy to do despite the kid squirming. My 3 year old can wear these all day (and go hard), without a problem. He loves them! Overall, we like the look, the durability, the ease to tie, and my kids picks them over his other 3 pairs of shoes. We are very pleased with the shoes.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These Air Max shoes are an absolute classic and perfect to introduce to my little one as he takes his first steps. The retro air max bubbles bring back a sense of nostalgia from the '90s, while also still giving my son plenty of cushioning. The design of the recraft pair is not too far off from the iconic original version of these shoes. The upper leather is still lightweight and breathable with plenty of flexibility, and putting them on requires minimal effort. I like that the shoes come with functional shoe laces that can be adjusted to my son's comfort. The traction underneath the shoe is incredibly durable, and I have no doubt these shoes will last. I'm glad Nike brought these back out of the vault in a recraft version for toddlers, so now I can look forward to matching with my son on our weekend festivities. Whether you're dressing up or down, these Air Maxes are sure to elevate your entire kid's aesthetics while also bring back a classic vibe that's sure to turn heads.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Really surprised with this one! Our all pink and purple loving 4 year old even chose these over her favorite colors. She loves the air bubble and I think it’s a great way for her to see how laces are tied. These are her first pair of shoes that aren’t straps or slip ons. They definitely feel premium and sturdy, but not heavy. I think these will last a while, and for her younger siblings too once they fit!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow! These are just like the Yu Gi Oh Air Max that are about to release but for toddlers. These would be a great pair to get alongside your own as a parent. My son looks great in these and seems to like them. The only knock is the shoe laces come untied quite easily so you have to knot these shoes and it takes away from the look of the shoes because the laces are not that long for knotting. These shoes are just like an adult shoe with no Velcro which is a very nice feature for style. We are Dallas Cowboys fans so this colorway is great on game day as an alternative blue colorway. The blue and black is always a great bet! You can’t go wrong with Air Max so if you’re in the market for a trendy shoe for your toddler, don’t overlook these!

I purchased this shoe for my toddler in all black overall nicelooking shoe but the laces are HORRIBLE they will not stay tied. i tie them constantly even in the grocery store or library people are stopping to help out and tie my toddler's shoes, an average day out expect to tie the laces on this shoe 10 or more times, even when you double tie them. This shoe was def not made with toddlers in mind!!
