‘Wear the right shoes and you can conquer the world’ – Well-Fitting School Shoes Are Essential

There’s no hard and fast rule for when is the right time to buy school shoes for children because so many different factors can have an impact on your child’s needs. They could have had a growth spurt and now their current shoes are too small, or they’ve started to look a little worse for wear so a freshen up is needed, or your child wants to wear a new style of shoe.

Considering that your child spends approximately 30 hours a week in school shoes – that is 15 000 hours in their lifetime – it is very important to make sure that school shoes fit correctly!

One of the most common reasons for having to invest in a new pair of school shoes for your little one is growing feet. Buccaneers School Shoes have put together a few top tips on how to choose the perfect new school shoes for your growing children.

School Shoe Fitting Tips

Fit tip #1: If you’re unsure whether your new comfy quality Buccaneer School Shoes fit correctly, just check for the toe wiggle – your child should be able to move their toes freely.

Fit tip #2: Buy your Buccaneer School Shoes at the end of the day as children’s feet get a little more swollen by this time and it’s better to fit school shoes when your child’s feet are at their biggest.

A change of up to two sizes can happen in one year, so it’s always important to keep checking the fit, especially for boys’ school shoes as their feet tend to grow a little bit faster than girls. That’s not to say you shouldn’t be paying close attention to your little girls’ school shoes too, as the correct fit is vital, and school is challenging enough without having to worry about uncomfortable school shoes.
