Online shopping woes

I want to buy DS some new shoes for his 2 year pictures in a few weeks. I have absolutely no idea what size to buy! His Carter's size 3's are snug, the size 4's are huge (don't have a velcro strap so that doesn't help either). I want to buy some cute Stride Rite shoes I found on Amazon, but after going to their web site and printing off their sizing chart, they say size 5?? I don't want him to be swimming in these shoes, but I don't want them too small either. I could go to the Stride Rite store, but I'm going to pay double and theres no guarantee they will have the color I'm looking for… There are no stores near me to find anything either. Grr I don't know what to do.

Re: Online shopping woes

  • Is there a store you could just get his foot measured? Like a department store or shoe store and then order online?

    There might be one in town. Otherwise I know of one about a half hour away. We're out in the middle of nowhere… with a junky Kmart.  :(

    About 11 centimeters. That's a great idea!

    Thanks for measuring! I think I will get them :)
  • Head's up Burlington Coat Factory often has them for pennies compared to ordering from anywhere.  Granted, it's not a guarantee for style, but price-wise, they're my "go to"... 

    When it comes to sizing Payless or Wally World always have a kids shoe-size thingy...  DS is already in an 8 which doesn't make things easy considering there are so few shoes out there that are flexible enough to make walking easy for him...

    So I ended up ordering a size 4.5 and they are perfect. A little room to grow but they are adorable. Exactly what I wanted! Thanks, all!
