What a children's chart can answer

A kids' foot size chart by age helps you get close to the range that may make sense. It does not replace measuring the foot, checking the brand chart or noticing how the shoe actually fit.

Children of the same age can have different foot lengths. Brands also use wider, narrower, higher or lower lasts, which changes comfort even when the number looks right.

There is no universal chart by age. Use age only as context for choosing which line deserves attention.

How to combine age, centimeters and the brand chart

  1. Measure the foot in centimeters

    Save the larger foot and check that the child was standing. The measurement helps more than age alone.

  2. Open the manufacturer chart

    Look for the children's line that lists centimeters, millimeters or the recommended length for that model.

  3. Compare with the expected use

    Consider socks, shoe type, how soon it will be worn and the return policy. Do not turn age into the final size.
