Crocs - proper ones! - any advice on sizing etc?

[emblestrembles]

Hi,

Going on hols next week.

DD is nearly 5. Lived the last 2 summers in crocs - the originals!

She is a size 9E in clarks. So I bought her some Crocs 10/11 as the advice was these are 9-10 UK sizes.

They are MASSIVE! Her tiny toes are lost in them.

Not sure whether to send back as she deff won't be using them this holiday, and may not even grow into them for the summer.

Her 8/9 (which I presume is UK size 7/8 fit on but her toe is at the end and not sure if they will rub in the heat of hols.

Any expert crocs advice welcome.

Should I just go to clarks and get some sandals for the holiday???

I think you should - I wanted some crocs for my son for the beach (might still get them but just not to wear all day) but the lady in my shoe shop said she keeps seeing kiddies with wonky feet/arches when she fits them for school shoes at the end of the summer. They're not a great support for a full time shoe apparently.

Least with a Clarks sandal you know she's strapped in for supoort?

Hope you have a nice hols.
