Please Note:  Certain older styles have different sizing.  It is best to use the sizing chart on the actual product page to determine the best size for your child.

CHECKING FOR COMFORT

Babies and their feet grow quickly, and parents should make sure that their shoes are growing right along with them. Signs that it’s time for a larger size include your child frequently removing one or both shoes, teetering, frequent tripping, and dragging toes. You may even notice red marks and impressions on their feet. Whether you’re noticing some of these signs—or it’s simply been a few months since your child’s last measurement—you can easily test the comfort of their shoes.

Have your child stand with their weight distributed evenly on both feet. To check length, make sure you can press your thumb between the longest toe and the end of the shoe. Children need about ½” of space for the toes to move freely. Next, check that your pinkie can fits snugly between the heel and back of the shoe. To check width, make sure you can grasp some material at the widest part of the foot. Ideally, you should test shoes later in the day, since children’s feet swell over the course of the day.
