Finding the right shoe size for your child is one of the most important steps in supporting their comfort, mobility, and healthy foot development. Ill-fitting shoes can lead to blisters, balance issues, or long-term foot problems—so getting the right fit matters more than ever.

In this guide, we’ll walk you through how to size kids' shoes accurately at home using Pediped’s brand-specific tools, including our printable shoe size guide, a quick video tutorial, and a full online kids shoe size chart—all designed exclusively for Pediped shoes.

Why Proper Shoe Fit Matters for Kids

Children’s feet grow quickly—sometimes seemingly overnight. The wrong size can not only be uncomfortable but may also interfere with how your child walks, runs, and plays. Pediped designs shoes that support healthy development, but proper sizing is essential to make sure they work their magic.

Here are a few signs your child may need a new size:

• Toes are pressing against the front of the shoe

• Frequent tripping or stumbling

• Red marks or blisters around heels or toes

• Complaints about tightness or discomfort
  

The right fit will have your kids smiling and their feet happy!

Find the Right Fit: How to Measure Kids’ Feet at Home

You don’t need fancy tools to measure your child’s feet—just a printer, a flat surface, and a few minutes! The key is using our guide made specifically for the shoes you plan to buy.

Step 1: Print the Pediped Size Chart

Download and print our Printable Pediped Shoe Size Chart (PDF). This chart is customized for the unique fit and sizing of Pediped footwear and should not be used for other shoe brands. Be sure to print at 100% scale with no resizing.

Step 2: Watch the Sizing Tutorial Video

Need a little guidance? This quick video shows you how to use the chart correctly so you find the perfect match.

Step 3: Measure Both Feet

Have your child stand on the printed Pediped chart with their heel against the back line. Use the larger measurement to determine their Pediped shoe size. Kids’ feet are rarely identical, so always size based on the bigger foot. 

Step 4: Use Pediped's Online Sizing Guide

Still unsure about your child’s size or between two sizes? Check out our official online Pediped Sizing Guide for more support. It includes tips for each shoe type—Originals®, Grip ‘n’ Go™, and Flex®—so you get the right fit for your child’s stage of development.

Please note: This guide is tailored exclusively for Pediped’s sizing and design structure. Other brands may follow different standards.

With the right shoe size, your kiddos will rock their kicks with comfort and confidence! 

Sizing Tips for Pediped Shoes

• Measure every 2–3 months: Children’s feet grow quickly—regular checks help avoid sizing surprises.

• Leave space for growth: Aim for about a thumb’s width between the longest toe and the end of the shoe.

• Wear measuring socks: Use the same socks your child would wear with their Pediped shoes for the most accurate result.
