Buying shoes online

Buying shoes online can be difficult. Impossible to try on, and a myriad of different sizing methods (US,UK Australian). Some size 7s are bigger or smaller than size 7s in a different brand. We have found that even the same size in different styles (same brand) can also differ in length.

Sizing charts can be problematic too, with printers not always printing the same scale.

Our solution is to provide physical measurements of each shoe style, internally from heel to toe. Simply measure your child's foot, add 1/2 to 1 cm and you should have no problems, unless they don't like the colour!
