More change is coming from the Swoosh soon as Nike plans to restructure its kid sizing model, resulting in price changes.
According to a document obtained by Horhead Sales, the change was made as Nike’s current model “does not allow for a true fit” due to an “overlap that can cause confusion for customers.”
Toddler will be 2C -7C (formerly 1C – 7C), Pre-School will be 8C – 13.5C (formerly 8C – 3Y) and Grade School will be 1Y – 7Y (formerly 3.5Y – 7Y).
The price increase will significantly affect those who wear 1Y – 3Y who will now fall in the Grade School (GS) range instead of the previous Pre-School (PS) grouping.
For example, a GS Air Jordan 3 “Green Glow” is priced at $150 whereas a PS Air Jordan 3 “Green Glow” is priced at $90. With this new model, those who paid $90 for sizes 1Y – 3Y will pay $150 going forward along with the 3.5Y – 7Y group.
