What’s hot: Style ideas for every age, every kid
by Shandley McMurrayShoes that last
Never shop in the morning – feet swell as the day progresses, so you need to buy a shoe that’ll still fit your child’s foot when 3:00 rolls around. Choose leather and suede, as these materials allow the foot to breathe and conform to the shape of your child’s foot. If your child has different-sized feet, find a shoe to fit the larger foot and use an insole for the smaller one. Check out these shoe fit tips too. Here are some of our faves.
