At what age do children walk?

But it's not just children's feet that are changing.

Children's feet can keep growing up to early adulthood usually girls' feet stop growing around 14 and boys around 16 but they can grow until 20.

So, we do recommend to keep getting feet measured.

Adult feet need to be measured too.

Feet can change over time for a variety of reasons for example after pregnancy, injury or due to medication.

Brands can also vary and often can fit very different to other brands.

So, we highly recommend not only getting your children's feet measured but also your feet measured too, and getting the correct advice on the brand or style best suited to your needs.
