What are some of the most common signs of wear and tear that you look for in your shoes?
Asked 3 years ago
Hey there, I want to make sure my child's shoes are comfortable and safe while playing and running around. What are the most common signs of wear and tear to look for in their shoes? I want them to still provide the necessary support and protection. TYIA

- Worn-out soles, If the soles of the shoes are thinner or have holes, it is time to replace them.
- Worn-out toes, in your child's shoes, indicate that the shoes are too small or that your youngster has a tendency to drag their toes while walking.
- Worn-out heel, If the shoes are too big, force the foot to slide forward and rub against the back of the shoe.
