We know that a perfectly fitted shoe is crucial for a child’s well-being as they start their big school adventures. With a wide range of styles and sizes, our collection of first school shoes celebrates the needs and individuality of every child.
Step 1: Fitting
Did you know that on average, Australian kids spend 15,500 hours in their school shoes? This is why measuring your child's feet is the essential first step to buying your first pair of school shoes. Well fitted shoes reduces the risk of blisters, fatigue and tripping. We understand that every kid is different, so are their feet, and that’s why our first school shoes collection includes cushioning for comfort, quality materials for durability and sole patterns to prevent slipping.
Step 2: Unique Needs
Understanding your child's specific needs is the next crucial step. Are they active, creative, sporty, social, or maybe a mix of all these traits? This’ll help guide you towards the best shoe style, fit for your kid—whether it's a classic Mary Jane, a secure lace-up, or a convenient self-fastening option. Here's a top tip: consider your child's lace-tying abilities, as opting for a self-fastening option can alleviate the pressure of getting ready on a busy school morning.
Step 3: Research is Key
Ensuring your child has the very best start to schooling is key to setting them up for success! From the hat on their head to the shoes on their feet and everything in between, parents have a lot to consider before sending their child off for the big first day. All of our shoes come with clear features and benefits, materials breakdown and a comprehensive size guide to help you research online. Looking for more info?
