What to look out for when buying school shoes for your kids?

  • Lightweight

This may seem obvious but heavy shoes and those especially on little people may cause more harm than good. Ensure that your little ones are not weighted down by heavy shoes that may hinder their movement.

  • Firm heel counter

A robust heel will protect your child’s Achilles tendon and support their heel on both sides. If not supported, your child’s feet may pronate (roll inwards) or supinate (roll outwards) which could lead to pain and discomfort.

  • Adjustable

Whether velcro straps, laces or even buckles — all three allow for some degree of adjustment in a school shoe for kids. You can guide them on how to make the shoes tighter or looser so they find the perfect fit.

  • Fit

Children face tremendous growth spurts and it goes without saying that their feet size can also change very quickly. So how do you determine the right size? Try using a kid’s foot ruler — a convenient way to measure your child’s feet. Both feet may have different sizes, so go with the longer measurement. Add about a centimeter more to the measurement to account for some wriggle room before arriving at your final number!
