Trends in athleisure are driving the little kids' market just as strongly as they are driving the big kids'
market. "Athleisure elements continue to be a driving trend for kids, whether they are hybrid versatile
styles or retro chunky sneakers," says JambuKD design director Naly Lee. In the athletic sandal realm,
this means "thicker webbing straps with hook and loop closures that have performance attributes but
can be worn in multiple occasions," notes Lee. And as the styles below convey, it means on-trend colors
and not skimping on tech details. Here are just a few of the kids' styles we like for Spring 2019.
