How to measure your child's foot

The most reliable way to size kids' shoes is by foot length, not by guessing from age. Stand your child on a piece of paper with their heel against a wall, mark the tip of their longest toe, and measure heel-to-toe in centimeters. Measure both feet and use the larger one. If they're between sizes — or you want a little room to grow — size up. Then match that measurement to the foot-length column in any brand chart above. See our full guide to measuring shoe size for step-by-step instructions and tips.

Kids' shoe sizes vs adult sizes

Kids' shoes usually run from baby/toddler (“C” sizes) up to a big-kid or youth size around US 7, which is roughly where adult sizing begins. Once a child's foot outgrows the kids' range, switch to the adult chart for that brand — each brand page below notes exactly where its kids' sizing tops out. For adult conversions, use the brand size charts or the shoe size converter.
