Questions parents ask

How does pre-ordering work? +

This style arrives in New Jersey in early November, in small batches. Choose your size and pre-order now: you’re charged at checkout and your pair ships by November 12, tracked. Each size is limited to the pairs in this delivery, so once they’re gone the size shows as sold out. Ordering an in-stock pair too? We ship everything together, or email us and we’ll send the in-stock pair ahead. Changed your mind? Cancel anytime before it ships for a full refund.

How should children’s shoes fit? +

Leave about ½ inch (1–1.2 cm) of room beyond the longest toe so feet have space to grow and spread. The shoe should hold the heel without pinching.

What if the size is wrong? +

Tell us the size you need and we will ship the replacement as soon as your return is scanned by the carrier. Exchanges are always complimentary.

How do I measure at home? +

Paper, pencil, two minutes. Our sizing guide walks through it step by step, with a chart for every brand we carry.
