General Sizing Tips

• Baby sizing generally grows by 3 month increments. Many brands do not use a 9 month size so we frequently go from 6 months to 12 months. This is due to the different growth patterns babies experience during this period. 
• When buying for your own child, we recommend not buying too large. Many children have growth spurts at different times and it is much simpler to buy for the child not too far into the future. Often children pass sizes all together! Or the season does not correspond with their size.
• Please note that the height designation for child apparel sizing is only an estimate and will not correspond to age accurately for every child. If in doubt, shop for the height of the child and don’t be concerned about the age designation.
• We tend to sell shoes using European sizing as many are made in Europe and there is no definitive conversion standard between Euro and US sizing. We have made every effort to ensure accuracy, but the conversion below may be different to other stores.
