How to find and fit

The Perfect Kids' Shoe

A child’s foot is not simply a small version of an adult’s foot. Children’s feet grow in stages of 1-2 cm a year until the age of 15. With such a growth rate, a kid’s shoe size must be checked several times a year. Use this guide to make the right choices.

Extra attention to little feet

Finding the perfect kids shoe can be challenging. The differences in the shape of kids' feet are huge. And since the nerve endings in kids' feet are not fully developed, it’s difficult for them to tell whether their shoes are too tight or not.

Their soft foot bones will adopt the shape of poor fitting or too small shoes and cause foot related problems. So, it is important to allow the bones and muscles in the foot to develop free and unrestricted. ECCO Kids shoes are designed to help kids' feet develop naturally.
