How often should I measure my child's feet for new shoes?

Children’s feet grow quickly, so check every 2-4 months to prevent discomfort and support healthy development. For accuracy, measure in the afternoon when feet are slightly larger.

How can I ensure the shoes are comfortable for all-day play and school?

Choose shoes with padded collars, cushioned insoles, and flexible rubber soles to reduce friction and provide support. Lightweight designs help prevent fatigue during active play.

Do the soles offer good grip and non-slip features for safety?

Look for shoes with deep treads and non-marking rubber outsoles for excellent grip. Check the product description for features like “Non-Slip Sole” or “High-Traction Outsole.”

Can I find school shoes in wide sizes or different widths?

Shoes are generally in standard South African sizes. If wide sizes aren’t offered, choose styles with adjustable Velcro straps to comfortably fit slightly wider feet.

How much growing room should I leave in my child's new shoes?

Leave about a thumb’s width of space between the longest toe and the shoe’s end. Shoes should stay secure at the heel while allowing toes to move freely.
