10 Foot Locker Gifts the Shoe Lovers in Your Life Will Freak Out Over

Skechers Twi-Lites 2.0 Pre-School High-Top Sneakers ($65)

There's something extra exciting about unwrapping a first-ever pair of light-up sneakers. This pair delivers with playful details kids will love, including rhinestone accents, a tulle bow, fairy-wing details, and a pretty pink colorway.

Nike Dunk Low Kids' Shoes ($69, originally $92)

Discounted Dunks? We're listening. The black-and-white pair is on sale and bound to impress the grade-schoolers in your life. If they're into something a little more fun, other colorways bring even more personality.

Nike Air Force 1 Low Kids' Sneakers ($90)

Few gifts hit as hard as a pair of Air Force 1s, no matter your age. But they do hit extra hard for grade-schoolers who want to keep it classic, cool, and compliment-worthy among their peers. This soft sage green and mint colorway does the trick, though the crisp white OG pair never misses either.

Adidas Originals Handball Spezial Sneakers ($110)

These sneakers live in that sweet spot between timeless and trendy. The suede, low-profile design taps into the vintage-cool energy everyone's loving right now, whether you stick with a neutral colorway or branch out into something bolder. Just know you'll want to move fast if you have a specific hue in mind — it's one of the hottest pairs on this list.

UGG Lowmel Kids' Sneakers ($120)

Just one look at these, and it's no surprise they're rated a top gift for kids. They offer the same comfort and warmth as UGG's signature boots, plus sturdy outsoles that can keep up with little ones' busy lives. They also come in three colors: pink (pictured here), sand, and chestnut.

UGG Tasman II ($125)

No holiday gift guide feels complete without a UGG pick for adults. This pair is one just about everyone will love. They work indoors and out, with a plush sheepskin interior, a stylish braided collar, and a tractioned footbed for extra grip.

Foot Locker Timberland Premium 6" Waterproof Patent Leather Boots ($120)

I can't be the only adult who's borderline distraught that I can't get this pale pink patent-leather pair of Timbs in my size. I'll cope by gifting them to a family member instead, because they're straight-up gorgeous, surprisingly practical, and basically a little piece of Timberland history.

Adidas Anthony Edwards 2 ($130)

With Anthony Edwards — one of the NBA's most-loved players — behind the design, these adidas sneakers are a gift basketball fans will freak out over. They're built for the court, but their clean profile makes them easy to style off it, too.

Saucony Progrid Omni 9 ($50, originally $155)

Whether you're shopping for a style lover, a fitness obsessive, or someone with a foot in both worlds, the Saucony Omni 9s are a smart pick that ticks all the boxes. They're comfy and secure enough for long walks or runs, but plenty of people slip them on for everyday wear, too, thanks to that caged, retro-inspired overlay that looks undeniably cool.

Nike Air Max Goadome ($200)

Winter-ready and genuinely gift-worthy, the Nike Air Max Goadome covers all the bases — and looks damn good coming out of a gift box. The durable, waterproof design and tractioned sole handle cold-weather days with ease, while Air Max cushioning keeps every step comfortable. Choose from three colorways: brown, black, or olive with black detailing.
