Ds has gone into adult size shoes/trainers.
Just had a look at nike to get him some black leather trainers for school. There are 2 size 6's.
6(eur 39)
6(eur40)
Does anyone know what the difference is?

Is this for normal wear with uniform?
You might want to check as most schools local to me are banning black Nike trainers for normal school wear so could be an expensive mistake.

Size 40 is 6.5

My ds is in primary school and his school has an active uniform so it's black trainers every day. No school shoes. He's in year 5 and size 6.

Navigating shoe sizes, especially when it comes to kids transitioning into adult sizes, can be quite a puzzle. As for the two size 6 options you found, it's possible they could differ in subtle ways like fit or design. Sometimes, even within the same size, there can be variations based on the model. If you're uncertain, I'd suggest reaching out to Nike's customer support for clarification. On a side note, I recently stumbled upon a store nearby that has a cool selection of Nike kicks. If you're interested, I could pass on the details.

Nike tend to run small so if in doubt size up!

nike online chat are quite helpful.
some nike models are based on a narrower footbed (pegasus for instance vs the infinity line).
if you chat to them online don't forget to ask for a discount code, usually 10%.
