Our school shoe collection is here for you to shop, and we’ve got shoes fit for every kid. Whether your little one is a sports champ, artsy genius, active adventurer, or playground socialite, we’ve got shoes to fit their feet and style. We know, as well as you do, that each kid is different, so is the way we fit their feet. Our shoes are tailored to cater to the needs of each child — from size and style to comfort and support, we have their feet covered... literally. Kids spend over 15,000 hours in their school shoes each year; that’s a lot of adventures. Our Fit Squad will find your little one the perfect pair that’ll keep them comfy and ready for anything with every step.
Step 1: Fitting
Did you know that 65% of kids wear the wrong size shoe? That’s a lot of sore toes and foot pain. We understand how important it is for growing feet to have the right fit and it starts with the perfect size measurement. This helps avoid things like blisters, tired feet, and, of course, tripping. We get that every kid is different, and so is the way we fit their feet.
Step 2: Unique Needs
Understanding your kid’s needs is the next big step. Are they into playing, creating, sports, being social or maybe a mix of everything? This will guide you towards the perfect shoe style for your kid – whether it's a classic Mary Jane, a secure lace-up, or an easy-to-fasten style. Active kids need shoes that can keep up with their energetic lifestyles. Our collection features tough materials to withstand the rigors of play.
Step 3: Research is Key
The back-to-school shopping dilemma often includes the choice between self-fastening and lace-up school shoes. Just as every child is unique, so are their feet, with considerations ranging from fit to sole type and style. Our experts lay out the pros and cons in this blog that serves as a helpful guide for parents navigating this decision, offering insights into the factors to consider.
