Why Shop In Store

The Ten Minute Fitting

We measure both feet.

Feet are often two different sizes, and we always fit the larger one.

We check width and toe room.

A thumb's width of room at the toe, and a snug heel that does not slip.

We watch them walk.

The right shoe supports your child's natural stride, not just the size on the box.

Skip the wait. Book a kids' shoe fitting at Adventure Soles and we will have your child's sizes ready when you arrive.
