Size guide

To find the correct size, start by measuring your child's foot length by following the instructions below on this page. Once you have the measurement, simply go to the product page of the chosen shoe and use the size guide available there to match the foot length with the recommended shoe size. 

Remember to measure both feet, as they may differ in length.


Find the size guide on the product page

You will find the specific size guide for each shoe directly on the product page, where you can enter your child's measurements to see the recommended size. 

On this page, you will find our guide on how to measure your child's feet correctly, along with helpful tips on what to keep in mind.


How to measure your child's feet correctly

  1. Place the foot on a piece of paper against a wall
    Let the heel be completely against the wall.

  2. Mark the tip of the longest toe
    Both feet, as one foot may be longer than the other.

  3. Enter the measurement in millimeters in the size guide on the product page for the specific style
    The table will then tell you the growth allowance for each size in the table, and you can then select what you see fit.

You also have the option to purchase our measuring tools. They make it easy and reassuring to obtain completely accurate measurements - simply place the foot on the foot gauge and measure from the heel to the longest toe. 


shoe sizes and age: choose for mini, child, and junior

When it comes to online shopping or gift buying, shoe sizes can sometimes feel like a fun and exciting maze. Baby shoes must be extra flexible and spacious for rapidly growing feet, which can grow up to 15 mm in six months. On the other hand, junior shoes should have a more practical design. 

We have made it easy for you by dividing te shoes into Mini (0-2 years), Kid (2-6 years), and Junior (6-12 years). Use the overview below to find the best shoe for your child - and also consider whether you want to buy a bisgaard shoe gauge with:

  • Mini - They grow quickly, so we recommend measuring every 1-2 months.

  • Kid - They are always on the move, so the fit is important. We recommend measuring every 3-4 months.

  • Junior - They are now old enough to tell you if the shoe feels tight, but we still recommend measuring every six months.

When the new shoes arrive

If you bought leather shoes? Give it time to soften

High-quality calf leather may feel stiff at first, especially with boots and ballet flats. Over time, however, the leather will soften and naturally conform to your child's foot, providing optimal comfort. 

Do a sole check

If the ordered shoe has a removable sole, remove it from the shoe and place your child's foot on top. Is the foot within the edges of the sole? Then it looks good. Remember that the shoe's inner measurement varies from the outer measurement due to materials and seams. 

If the shoe doesn't fit:

If you followed our recommended measurements from the start, there are usually no fitting issues when the shoe is received. However, if you still need to return or exchange it, we offer free exchanges as well as a 30-day return policy from the delivery date, so you can feel confident in your purchase.
