1. Measure the feet in the afternoon, as they may become wider and longer throughout the day.

2. Your child should stand during the measurement and not sit, as this too can affect the size of the feet.

3. The length of the foot should be measured from the heel to the tip of the longest toe. Both feet should also be measured, as sizes can vary a bit. The largest measured size should then be taken as the final size for your child's feet.

4. It's important that your child's feet have room in the shoes to move and grow.

So make sure that you leave space at the top of the insole between 1 cm and 1.5 cm. How much space exactly, it depends on the type of shoe…

With PAPE slippers, 1 cm of extra space ensures the perfect fit and the best comfort.
