Nothing will ruin a fun day roller skating more than sore feet and uncomfortable skates. When you have a pair that fits properly, you can skate longer, have more fun, and prevent blisters and other painful issues. In order to choose the best size for you or your child, learn to measure the feet properly. This step-by-step guide will help.
How to Measure Foot Size
All you need to measure your or your child’s feet accurately is a piece of paper, a ruler, and a pencil or pen. Also, it helps to know if you have any unique features like flat or high arches, high insteps, or any podiatric issues that need extra room in a shoe or a roller skate.
Follow these steps to get an accurate foot size:
Can you measure the size of your feet without a piece of paper? Yes. Carefully determine the length and maximum width with the ruler alone. This is a bit trickier to do on your own, so be careful not to bend, twist, or lift your foot when looking at the numbers.
How to Help Kids Find the Right Skate Size
Measuring your child’s foot is different than measuring your own. The process is much like they would experience at a retail shoe shop, only done in the comfort of your own home. Follow the same steps outlined above, but make sure they stand firm and with their feet flat on the paper for the best results. Standing still during the process helps.
