Back to School Shoes Frequently Asked Questions

How many pairs of shoes do you need for back to school?

It's a good idea to get two pairs of back-to-school shoes: one pair for everyday wear in the classroom and hallways and another pair for gym class. You can get by with just one pair of athletic shoes that are great for all-day wear and for PE, but keep in mind that they'll wear down faster. Shoes with non-marking outsoles are ideal for indoor gymnasium use. Don't forget to check with your school's dress code for additional guidance.

When should I buy back-to-school shoes?

For younger kids who are growing quickly, buy back-to-school shoes about two to three weeks before classes start. For older kids, getting school shoes three to four weeks in advance will work fine. Make sure the shoes fit well and are comfortable for walking in the days before school starts.

Should I buy school shoes half a size bigger?

If your kids' current shoe size feels tight or uncomfortable, you should buy their back-to-school shoes a half size bigger. Ideally, a thumb-width of space in the toe box provides enough room to grow without compromising support. But if their size is currently comfortable, it's a good idea to stick with it.
