Getting the correct size

• To check the fit, try the shoes at home while wearing a sock. Then, feel the top of the shoe for the end of your child’s longest toe. Ideally, it should be a distance of 0.5 – 1 cms between the top of the shoe and the child’s toe. Remember that it’s not advisable to buy a larger size of shoe to last longer , your child may become uncomfortable.
• Try them in the afternoon rather than in the morning, because feet tend to grow a little bit during the day due to the body’s weight. This way you will be able to measure the feet properly and get the correct size
