Tips for Buying Kids' Shoes
- Children's feet grow quickly - measure every 2-3 months
- Always measure both feet and use the larger size
- Allow 0.5-0.75 inches of growing room
- Check shoe fit regularly - kids often don't notice tight shoes
- Shoes should bend at the ball of the foot, not in the middle
- Replace shoes when toes touch the end or sides feel tight
