Tips for choosing the right school shoes:-

Selecting the right shoes is very important for healthy growth and feet development.

• Correct Shoe Size: Not too big and not too small. Ensure there is at least one finger gap behind the heel.
• Comfortable Insole: Rebound and rubber insole provide greater comfort by helping to absorb the shock that makes feet tired. Those with flat feet may use arch support insole to reduce discomfort and pain.
• Good Outsole: Rubber outsole of shoes able to prevent fall down on slippery and muddy surface.
• Material: Choose better ventilation & air flow shoes. Our foot has a particularly high density of perspiration pores and great amount of moisture should be quickly removed to avoid unpleasant odour.  Also, lightweight shoes keep your child comfortable from morning to evening.
• Color: Black is stain-resistant and easier to care for.  Meanwhile, wearing white shoes is part of training young children to be neat and clean.
