How to correctly measure a child's foot for shoes?

When looking for the right shoes for children, it is very important to measure their feet accurately. Whether you're shopping online or in a brick-and-mortar store, knowing your child's exact foot measurements will help ensure your child's fit and comfort. In this article, we will give you the steps to do it at home and answer the most common questions.

Step by step: how to measure a child's foot:

  1. Prepare the necessary tools

    • A sheet of paper
    • Pen or pencil
    • A ruler or measuring tape
  2. Take the measurement on a hard surface
    It is recommended that the child stands on a hard surface and wears thin socks (or the ones they usually wear when wearing shoes).

  3. Record the shape of the foot
    Place the child's foot on the paper and carefully draw an outline around the foot. It is important to hold the pen upright to get accurate measurements.

  4. Measure the length of your foot
    Take a ruler and measure the distance from the heel to the longest toe. This is the most important dimension in choosing the right footwear.

  5. Don't forget to factor in growth
    For a growing child's foot, it is recommended to add about 0.5-1 cm of extra slack - this will ensure comfort and allow the foot to move freely.
