Verdict

The Nike Revolution 7 (GS) is a solid performer — a kids running scoring 82/100 in SoleHunt's data-driven evaluation, drawing on 0 consumer reviews and 0 independent expert tests. Tipping the scales at 210g, it is notably lightweight for a kids running. The 25mm heel stack — a moderate stack — delivers a medium-firm ride at 34 HC, returning 50% of impact energy and feeling moderately responsive underfoot. Geometrically, the Revolution 7 (GS) runs on a mid 8mm drop that works with most running gaits, with a 17mm forefoot stack that maintains the traditional heel-elevated geometry runners with tight calves often prefer. Fit-wise, the toebox measures 88mm — medium-width, comfortable for most foot shapes — and the upper comes in a standard width. True to size. Allow 1cm growth room. The removable insole makes it compatible with custom orthotics. It is designed for school pe, daily wear, active kids, first running shoe, and performs less well for racing or adult use.
