What size shoe does your 2.5/3 yr old wear? - Page 3

[~Charlie's~Angel~]

I have found this to be a very interesting subject amoung my own two children.

DS1, 2.5 and I just bought him a pair of 8.5 sketchers. He was in a size 8 Nikes. This child has VERY wide feet, like his father and fathers side, and has consistantly gone up in size about every 2-4 months since birth. DS2, 16 months, is the exact opposite. (He has my feet ) Matter of fact, the shoes he is wearing right now, his brother never wore while walking, which is why they look BRAND NEW! They are a 6!!! And they are so big, they fall off sometimes (No flames please, I like sneakers on my boys, I just do) So it can vary between siblings just as widly.

My dd who will be 4 in may is a size 11 she has allways had big feet. She was my barefoot baby my dh says she's a member of the blackfooted hippie tribe just like mommy! It was impossible to find appropriate shoes for her big ol feet so we didn't need em! I've never been a shoe person and both my kids would rather be barefoot so we get em for going in public and parks but that's it and she grows out of em so fast I just got her a 10 last month and had to upsize to the 11!

my 28 month old is a size 6, dd was a size 5 at this age. I imagine he will be in 7s by the time he turns three, maybe even 8s.

Dd1 who is 3 wears a 9w dd2 who is 2 wears a 8w. They are both tall. I'm sure when I get new shoes in June the will both be up a half size .

DS is 3 and is currently wearing a size 8.

Well, I feel slightly embarrassed. DS is 27 months, and wearing a 4. I tried a 5 last week, but still too big.

Don't be embarrassed DD is 26 mos. and wears 4.5 and 5. Everyone always comments on how tiny her feet are. She was wearing robeeze size 6-12 when she was 18 mos.

Canaan will be 2 1/2 in May and wears a 9 or 9.5 and has for awhile. He is just over 3 feet tall and has enormous feet (just like Mama).

Dd wears a size 6.5-7 depending on the brand and she will be 3 in July. My son wore a size 9.5 at 2.5-3. He still has large feet at 4 he wears a size 11.5

My DD will be three in May and I would probably buy her between a 6 and 7 now, depending on the brand.

Thanks for posting this question. I had a 20 month old and the different size scales at some shoestores is driving me nuts.
We had her measured at Stride Rite and they say she is a 6.5W. I figured a 7 in SKR would do but now I'm wondering if I should get an 8 as the 7 doesn't seem to have alot of room for growth.
from their size age chart it seems as if 7 (2 years) seemed right and 8 (3 years) seemed a bit too much. I tried to look at the descriptions on their size chart but after reading this thread I an going to ignore the age column.
I'm just worried that she will wear the 7s for 2 weeks and then poof we have to purchase new ones. I guess all kids have different growth spurts with feet.

My 3.5 year old was wearing 10's at 3. He's now almost 4 (June) and in 12's.
