The right shoe size

Your child’s feet grow almost visibly! To be certain that the shoe fits properly, just keep a few things in mind.

• Make sure the heel is against the back part of the shoe.
• Keep the sole of the foot very relaxed.
• Press down lightly at the big toe to check whether there is approximately 1 centimetre between the toes and the toe end of the shoe.
• If your child is very young, open the shoe as much as possible, and push the foot forward as far as possible. If you can insert a finger into the space that remains between the heel and the inner back part of the shoe, it is the right size.
