How to determine the appropriate shoe size?

Determine correct shoe size if I do not have a specialist retailer nearby:

1. To determine the correct shoe size, please put your children’s little feet on a piece of paper and draw around the outside with a pencil.
2. Please make sure that the toes are “stretched” and that your child is standing correctly.
3. Then measure your foot drawing from the heel to the longest toe in centimeters with a ruler.
4. Please add a tolerance for the toe clearance depending on the model. Our tolerance recommendation can be found in the respective size chart.
5. Sizes refer to the inside / inside length and width of the shoe.
6. Children’s feet grow by two to three shoe sizes a year during the first few years. Therefore, you should regularly check the shoe size to make sure that the foot is not constricted.

Another little tip:

• front open sandals fall out rather a little larger. Here rather order a shoe size smaller.
• Lined shoes should tend to be purchased slightly larger, since the 100% wool lining makes the shoe interior smaller. Almost all street shoes at POLOLO have a removable insole – so you can check the fit again well and especially during wear the size again and again, because children’s feet grow!
