Sizing Tips
Shoes should never be too big or too small. While a shoe that is too small can prevent foot growth, one that is too large will not give correct support. An oversized shoe may be the cause of faulty posture and the foot may slip forward inside the shoe and not lean correctly on the heel. The correct amount of size between the big toe and inside of the shoe is the width of an adults index finger or one centimeter. Since childrens feet grow at such an amazingly quick rate their shoe sizes change every few months. Generally shoe sizes need to be re-evaluated every 2-3 months but that time may be even shorter if your child has a growth spurt. |
