Boys' Basketball Shoes

Best Shoes for Hoops

Foot Locker has all the basketball shoes you need to help fuel your budding hoopsters. Start at the top with the Nike LeBron Witness VII. It’s inspired by LeBron’s legendary quickness and on-court energy. The full-length Max Air unit is combined with soft foam to add responsiveness and lightweight cushioning. The structured mesh around the heel and midfoot improves performance, and the rubber sole adds traction to help cut and pivot with ease. There’s a plastic clip for additional support, while the pull-tabs on the heel and tongue provide comfort.

Go with a classic look in the adidas Hoops Mid 3.0. The synthetic leather upper adds a premium touch, and the mid-top design shows off classic style. The lace closure adds a secure fit, while the padded collar keeps things snug.

The PUMA MB.02 is a great addition to any lineup. Part of the LaMelo Ball collection, these futuristic shoes have a tremendous vibe. The Nitro foam-infused midsole signifies Melo’s signature wings. Slime details on the Formstrip and toe cradle their feet in plush comfort. The MB1 logo offers athletic flair. There’s the engineered mesh zoned upper for stability and breathability, while the high-abrasion tread pattern rubber outsole has non-slip rubber compounds for tremendous traction.

Aim high with the Jordan True Flight. These have a nubuck-and-synthetic blended upper to ensure ventilation, while the Zoom Air insole adds cushioning and support. On the bottom, the solid rubber outsole has a herringbone pattern for traction and grip on and off the court. This is a great shoe to honor MJ’s legacy.

And when you need an iconic look, the Converse All-Star Hi is the way to go. The durable canvas upper stays true to the classic design, while the rubber cupsole ensures low-profile traction wherever they go.
