When shopping for your child’s school shoes remember these simple tips to ensure the best fit:

1.      Get your child’s foot measured regularly

2.      Ensure toes can wiggle freely in the shoes

3.      Allow 1cm between the big toe and the top of the shoe

4.      Get fitted by a trained sales assistant and/or get the shoes checked by a Podiatrist
