shoe sizes

Toddler size chart

Each size fits feet longer than the size before it, up to its own length. Between two sizes, take the bigger one.

UK and EU sizes step differently, so a US size can cover two of them (“7–7.5”). After 10C comes 10.5C, the first little kid size.

Ages

The typical child’s foot is in toddler sizes from birth to 4 years. Each child is different: at every age, feet differ by several sizes.

All ages, with UK and EU sizes and a chart: kids’ shoe size by age.

Brands’ own charts

These brands publish a toddler chart (or a baby chart). Each labels sizes its own way (some add C, K or T; some print only the number), and brands draw their bands differently: some start or end several sizes away from the sizes above. Check the brand’s chart with your child’s foot length.

How long a size lasts

A typical foot grows about 26 mm a year in the first two years and 10 mm a year from 2 to 4 (babies measured lying down, children standing). A half size is 4.2 mm, so a half size lasts about 2 months in the first two years and about 5 months from 2 to 4 for the median child; yours may grow faster or slower. How much room a shoe needs, and how often to measure.

Find their size

Measure with a photo: they stand on a sheet of paper against a wall while you hold their heel. Or print the foot ruler. Then type the length:
