What is an average shoe size for a 3.5y old boy?
My DS just got measured again in Clarks and he's 11! I was shocked! He is tall too, so not a mickey mouse exactly Smile

If your kid's shoe size is 11 how old are they?

ds1's first shoes were a 6.5 ...i am 5'7" and the midget of the family, he's now a grown up with size 13 feet.

1pink4blue · 25/06/2016 18:12

ds is 3 and a half and he is also a size 11.
dd 16 months is a size 2
ds 10 is a size 2 junior

My son has big feet, the length was never the problem it was H fitting being too narrow that resulted in hand made shoes for a 9 year old. £120 at that was about 15 years ago.

I think there's an advantage to being tall for sport plus everyone seems to be taller these days. DS (18) is one of the shorter boys/men in his immediate friendship group and he is 6'1. He has 2 friends who are 6' 6.
The downside is the amount they cost to feed as teenagers!

WreckTangled · 25/06/2016 18:19

Ds is 3.5 and size 10. He's not particularly tall and is in age 3-4 clothes.

Dd is just six and size 11.

Squiff85 · 25/06/2016 18:21

I wouldn't say so!

My 6 year old is a 3, 8 year old a 4

4yoniD · 25/06/2016 18:21

5 year old sz 12.5
8 year old sz 13

No more hand me down welly boots here!

octopusrus · 25/06/2016 18:24

DS is 7 and has a size 3!! They look like flippers.

Dungandbother · 25/06/2016 18:25

Ha ha I've messaged about DD feet before but because they are small.

DS is an 11. He's 6. Think his feet are average for a boy. F width.

DD is 13. She's 9. D width.

My friends DS is 7 in Oct. He's a size 4. Same size as his mum at age 7. He's very tall though. Grin

peripateticparents · 25/06/2016 18:28

7 year old ds is size 3.5. I can fit his current shoes tho a fraction tight. If memory serves me correctly he was similarly sized at about 3. Growth did slow down for a while though

bostonkremekrazy · 25/06/2016 19:03

we have the opposite problem - tiny feet for 3 of mine.

dc age 11 is size 11H and nightmare avoiding the babyish styles in clarks!
dc age 9 is size 10H
dc age 1.5 size 2H

dc age 3 size 7.5E.....much more respectable!

blueteapot · 25/06/2016 19:10

My 3.5 year old son is a size 11 foot too - He's quite a tall boy though he must have got that from his 6'3" dad as I am a rather average 5'6" with size 6 feet :)

ilovewelshrarebit123 · 25/06/2016 19:22

My 9 year DD is a 13 but she has got tiny feet!

Jenijena · 25/06/2016 19:31

My just turned 4 year old, who wears clothes bang on size for his age, has been 10.5 for several months. There's at least one size 11 at his nursery as they have the same shoes!

Both me and DH are size 8. I was size 6 or 7 when I started secondary school. At 5'4 (and that's generous), I think I stopped growing several inches too short for my height...

TweeterandtheMonkeyman · 25/06/2016 19:37

Mine have both got massive feet...I assume they will be tall. Ds is 3.5 in a 10.5.

ColintheCrow · 25/06/2016 19:42

DS aged 9 has size 11/2 feet and DD aged 7 has size 12.

My just turned 12 year old nephew has men's size 11 feet so all very different!

coolaschmoola · 25/06/2016 19:44

My dd is 4 and an 11. She wears 5-6 clothes but the dresses are too short already Sad

Bigfam · 25/06/2016 19:50

Dd2 who's 4 1/2 has just overtaken her brother who's 6 1/2 she's a size 11, him a 10.

Dd1 is 7 1/2, the tallest in her class and the last pair of school shoes we bought her are an adult size 2 Shock

Tonis2297 · 25/06/2016 19:55

My ds is 3/12 and a size 10 he is tall and heavy for his age , must take after me I'm a size 8 in shoes Grin

GlitteryFluff · 25/06/2016 19:56

DS is 1 (2 in 6 weeks) and last measured he's 7.5!

Socksey · 25/06/2016 20:04

My DS was in 11s at about that age but his feet have not grown much and now at 7.5 he's only in 1s.... and is 132cm tall...

PurpleCrazyHorse · 25/06/2016 20:12

DD is 6yo and has size 11.5 feet for the last school year (no change of shoes here!). I remember when she was younger, her feet looked out of proportion a bit but then they slowed down and her height caught up.

x2boys · 25/06/2016 20:15

Ds1 is nine and in adult size 3 ds2 is 6 and in childrens size12 neither are paticularly large children?

KeithRichardsPetCat · 25/06/2016 20:40
