The GEL-CUMULUS™ 22 kid's running shoe is designed to help deliver excellent cushioning, while promoting a smooth ride. Constructed with a lightweight mesh upper that generates forefoot support, this shoe also supplies plenty of airflow to keep feet cool and comfortable throughout the day. The GEL™ technology cushioning in the midsole is met with a layer of EVA foam to supply a combination of comfort and lasting durability. The new last helps create a stronger response during the toe-off stage of the stride, while the outsole's flex grooves generate full-ground contact for a smooth stride.
