What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I grabbed these for my niece and they've been her go-to for everything from backyard adventures to serious trail days. The fit is spot-on with the Adifit tool, and the ankle coverage keeps out rocks and debris when she's off exploring."Big adventures start with little steps, and the adidas Terrex AX4R Mid Hiking Shoes are built to make every one count. From forest paths to rocky trails, these versatile mids provide young hikers with the support, cushioning, and traction they need to move confidently outdoors. The mid-cut design offers ankle coverage and protection, while the gusseted tongue keeps out dust and trail debris so they can keep going without missing a beat. Crafted with a lightweight textile upper reinforced by synthetic overlays, these shoes hold up to every park sprint and mountain trek. Underfoot, a cushioned EVA midsole absorbs shock and softens each stride, and a Traxion outsole grips confidently over uneven surfaces. Finished with a sustainable touch, the shoe includes at least 20% recycled content-because exploring nature should help protect it, too.
