How to Choose the Right School Shoes for Your Child
Choosing school shoes is not just about size and appearance. The right pair provides comfort, support and confidence throughout your child’s school day. Here are some important factors to consider:
1. Choose the Right Size
Make sure the shoes are not too tight or too loose. Allow enough room for your child’s toes to move freely for greater comfort when walking and participating in activities.
Can’t bring your child to the store? Easily measure their feet at home:
- Place your child’s foot on a piece of paper and make sure the foot is flat.
- Mark the tip of the longest toe and the back of the heel.
- Measure the distance between the two marks in centimetres (cm).
- Measure both feet and use the measurement of the longer foot.
- Refer to the Canggih shoe size chart before making your purchase.
2. Prioritise Comfort
Choose shoes that are comfortable, lightweight and flexible so your child’s feet do not get tired easily, even after wearing them throughout the day.
3. Choose a Sole with Good Grip
Shoes with good grip help provide stability when your child walks, runs or takes part in activities at school.
4. Consider the Material and Durability
Choose high-quality, durable and easy-to-maintain materials that are suitable for everyday use throughout the school year.
5. Match the Shoes to Your Child’s Activities
School shoes should support your child’s movement, whether they are in the classroom, playing or participating in co-curricular activities.
The Right Shoes, More Confident Steps
By choosing the right size, comfort, grip and materials, your child can enjoy their school days with greater comfort and confidence, one step at a time.
