You don't need shoes until he is walking steadily and regularly. Before then, bare feet are best and help with grip. Also his feet are very soft, so best measured before you get shoes.

You really have to get him measured properly, it's really important for developing feeties! Although as PP said, he doesn't need them until he's comfortably walking outdoors. Bare feet are fine

Clarkes sell their foot measurers online(can probably find them cheaper on ebay)
At a young age it’s about the width too.
Barefoot at home is best but if going out and about some cruiser shoes will protect his feet.

I wouldn’t go by how long the feet are On a ruler, you also want a bit of growing room in them, you really need to get his feet properly measured. If the shop by you is closed, you might need to look further afield for a shoe shop. There’s some fantastic independent ones, ask around your local friends for another recommendation.
