Updated August 14, 2023
Buying shoes for your kids can be a complex task, as there are numerous factors to consider, including comfort, support, and design. Additionally, overlapping shoe sizes for little kids and bigger kids can lead to confusion. To clarify, toddler and little kid shoes typically range from sizes 0 to 13, while bigger kids' sizes start back at 1 and go up to a 7.
How to Find Your Child's Shoe Size
It is essential to regularly measure your child's feet and pay attention to any complaints about uncomfortable shoes. Kids' feet grow quickly, so you should keep asking them questions about the fit, whether their shoes feel tight, or if there's any discomfort. When shopping, try to find a size chart associated with the brand of shoes you're interested in to better understand the brand's specific sizing guidelines.
Additionally, be aware that different brands use various terms to describe toddlers' and kids' shoes (e.g., baby, walker, little kid, etc.). Familiarise yourself with these terms to make informed decisions when selecting shoes for your child.
