When you consider that many adult shoes in the basketball and training category are designed for individuals much taller, stronger, and more powerful than the average adult, you can begin to see that by the time the shoe translates to much smaller sizes that a child doesn&#8217;t necessarily have a shoe that scales to their performance needs, but rather just a scale to look like the shoes that come from the men&#8217;s shoe wall.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-545727 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-large'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.snkrsday.com\/files\/2017\/07\/08_SH_TMBLRv1_Lateral.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"492\" src=\"https:\/\/www.snkrsday.com\/files\/2017\/07\/08_SH_TMBLRv1_Lateral-1000x615.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"Super Heroic TMBLR v1\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-546021\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.snkrsday.com\/files\/2017\/07\/08_SH_TMBLRv1_Lateral-1000x615.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.snkrsday.com\/files\/2017\/07\/08_SH_TMBLRv1_Lateral-325x200.jpg 325w, https:\/\/www.snkrsday.com\/files\/2017\/07\/08_SH_TMBLRv1_Lateral-750x461.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.snkrsday.com\/files\/2017\/07\/08_SH_TMBLRv1_Lateral.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.snkrsday.com\/files\/2017\/07\/08_SH_TMBLRv1_Lateral-720x443.jpg 720w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-546021'>\n\t\t\t\tSuper Heroic TMBLR v1\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.snkrsday.com\/files\/2017\/07\/07_SH_TMBLRv1_Pair.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"492\" src=\"https:\/\/www.snkrsday.com\/files\/2017\/07\/07_SH_TMBLRv1_Pair-1000x615.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"Super Heroic TMBLR v1\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-546020\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.snkrsday.com\/files\/2017\/07\/07_SH_TMBLRv1_Pair-1000x615.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.snkrsday.com\/files\/2017\/07\/07_SH_TMBLRv1_Pair-325x200.jpg 325w, https:\/\/www.snkrsday.com\/files\/2017\/07\/07_SH_TMBLRv1_Pair-750x461.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.snkrsday.com\/files\/2017\/07\/07_SH_TMBLRv1_Pair.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.snkrsday.com\/files\/2017\/07\/07_SH_TMBLRv1_Pair-720x443.jpg 720w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-546020'>\n\t\t\t\tSuper Heroic TMBLR v1\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>Simply, but bluntly put, most kids shoes are smaller sized knockoffs of the adult shoes. This ranks high in the &#8216;family fresh&#8217; and &#8216;dress like dad&#8217; departments, but it doesn&#8217;t bode well for the actual function of the product and the purchase: for the kid to have fun and move around as they play.
