Children Footwear!!!!! How to Buy?!!!

Tips for Buying Proper Fitting Shoes for Your Child

Throughout the year, one of the most important purchases on any parent's shopping list should be a pair of proper fitting shoes for their child. For many parents, shoe shopping may seem easier than a pop-quiz in gym class, but several important factors should be considered: 

• Children's Feet Change With Age: Shoe and sock sizes may change every few months as a child's feet grow.

• Shoes That Don't Fit Properly Can Aggravate the Feet:  Always measure a child's feet before buying shoes, and watch for signs of irritation.

• Never Hand Down Footwear: Just because a shoe size fits one child comfortably doesn't mean it will fit another the same way. Also, sharing shoes can spread fungi like athlete's foot and nail fungus.

• Examine the Heels: Children may wear through the heels of shoes quicker than outgrowing shoes themselves. Uneven heel wear can indicate a foot problem that should be checked by a podiatrist.

• Take Your Child Shoe Shopping: Every shoe fits differently. Letting a kid have a say in the shoe buying process promotes healthy foot habits down the road.

• Always Buy for the Larger Foot: Feet are seldom precisely the same size.

• Buy Shoes That Do Not Need a “Break-In” Period: Shoes should be comfortable immediately. Also make sure to have your kid try on shoes with socks or tights, if that's how they'll be worn.
