What size shoes does your 7 year old boy have?

Had DS' feet measured today for new school shoes, his feet barely grow! Good I'm some respects but it got me thinking - does he have really small feet for his age?!

He's crept up to 12.5 from 12 last summer, he'll be 8 not long before the end of this academic year.

Just out of interest, what size feet does your similarly aged DS have?

Ds2 was 8 last September and he’s 13.5 conversely ds1 is 10 and he’s a 3.5.

spicygirl26 · 03/03/2019 19:41

Size 2.
He will be 8 in July

Was 7 in feb and hes a 11.5, nearly at a 12. He is a skinny runt and has slim feet too.

DD will be 6 in July and I've just had to buy her size 13 shoes.. but she has broad? feet. The top of her foot is quite high.

Interested in this thread?

My just turned 4 year old DS is a 12.5 shoe size. So much difference in children!

drspouse · 03/03/2019 19:46

Turned 8 in Jan, size 1 but he's NOT tall for his age and has no tall genes so no idea why.

If I remember correctly my son's feet grew quite slowly from about 7 to 10 or so. Then rather rapidly went from 5 to 11 over a couple of years.

My feet were size 1 age 4.5 starting school; I had a friend in highschool whose feet were size 1 age 12. I think my children's feet were size 1 at 5.5-6 ish, not certain.

My tip is, don’t wish for bigger feet.
Trying to get school shoes for a wide fitting adult size 14 is not the easiest.

isabellerossignol · 03/03/2019 20:24

My 7 year old has size 1 feet. I hadn't really looked at any of his friend's feet and assumed he was quite big but reading this, maybe not.

I must look at the other boys feet for comparison!

dairymilkmonster · 03/03/2019 20:24

ds1 is 7, will be 8 in june. Current in size 11E.
He is between 5-9th centile for ht and wt.

WallisFrizz · 03/03/2019 20:28

DS will be 8 later this year. Is currently size 11 (jnr). He’s very slim and quite short. Grows steadily but v slowly. His dad was apparently tiny until his mid teens.

MyDcAreMarvel · 03/03/2019 20:30

My nearly seven year old is a 12.

FudgeBrownie2019 · 03/03/2019 21:19

DS (just 8) has adult size 5 feet but he's quite tall for his age so it's not unexpected.

DS13 has size 12 feet so I will be spending my pension on massive shoes forever.

babysharkah · 03/03/2019 21:24

Nit what you asked but my teeny tiny 7 year old ex preemie girls are a 1 now in 'proper' shoes - start rite / Clarks. Sainsbury's and m and s are huge and they are still an 11.

ShesABelter · 03/03/2019 21:26

My 6 year old (Jan bday) is a 12.5 in Clark's

kayaholly · 03/03/2019 21:28

My just turned 6 yr old is size 1, but they are looking tight so probably 1.5, but he is humungous

WellTidy · 03/03/2019 21:30

Amazed at how big some children’s feet are! DS is nearly 7yo and a size 12.

Thesearmsofmine · 03/03/2019 21:31

Ds1 just turned 8 is a size 1, ds2 who is 6.5 is size 10.

Ds1 has tiny feet for ages and in the last year he has leapt up 3 sizes, ds2 seems to be following the same pattern.

DianaPrincessOfThemyscira · 03/03/2019 21:39

Age 7, 12.5. He might be a 13.

MardyMavis · 03/03/2019 21:41

7 and an 11

EnigmaticIcelandShopper · 03/03/2019 21:46

Age 6, size 3. He is all feet...like a Puppy

Newsername · 03/03/2019 21:50

Ds was 7 in january and he’s 13.5.

CigarsofthePharoahs · 03/03/2019 21:52

Mines just turned 8 and I bought him size 1 at the start of the academic year.
His feet have slowed down a bit now and I'm hoping these last him till next September!

NooNooHead1981 · 03/03/2019 22:48

I know you asked about boys but just to confuse you more, my DD is aged 8 and her shoe size is an adult 3-3.5... 😁 She is tall for her age, though.

C0untDucku1a · 03/03/2019 22:49

My ds turned 7 last month. He is a size 1

AtSea1979 · 03/03/2019 22:50

Size 4
