Do you wait until they are walking to get them their first measured shoes or do you get them before?

Wait until they have been walking a good few weeks and even then if they can go barefoot e.g if playing on grass then it's better to keep them shoe free.

You can get pre-walker shoes from Clarks once they start to totter around and then when walking confidently they need the proper shoes with the firmer soles to protect their feet.

Wait until they have been walking for at least 6 weeks.
