Children's/adults sizes for shoes

[EmmaG]

Can somebody tell me if a children's size 6 is the same as an adult's size 6??

[Jac]

Sure is but you dont pay tax on childrens.

[EmmaG]

Thanks Jac, I have been thinking about getting some crocs and my catalogue has them in pink or lavander but they are a childrens 6 :) just wanted to make sure that they would fit

[Moli]

Sure are Emma, I wear girls trainers size 5, and pay at least £10 less for them...and they are exactly the same as ladies!!

[Jac]

They should do. There exactly the same.

My gran used to be a size 2. She had problems getting adult shoes but no problems with childrens only problems getting childrens size 2 with a heal:roll:

[Fran]

But they do a small childs size 6 don't they?? I didn't realise you could get children's size 6 / adult equivalent :?

Babies/children shoes go up to a size 13 and then they start at size 1 again which leads up to adult sizes. Katie, who is 7 next week takes a size 13 now........her next shoes will be a size 1 in the adult ranges.....

I don't know if any of you have the subway (tube) system where you are, but if you do beware of Crocs on the escalators! Or on any escalators: there have been several cases here of both adults and children getting their feet caught in the treads on the Metro while wearing Crocs on the subway escalators with foot damage...one child had to have two toes amputated!!!!

Gosh that's worrying Eileen. Thanks for making us aware of that. Em wears crocs occasionally :?

[Mags]

Thanks for that Eileen, Katies wears those too! :?

[Moli]

Ok Ladies, I do not have any little kids.....What are Crocs???

[dandysmom]

There have been several well publicized cases lately, thought it wouldn't hurt to post a warning...I've been tempted to get a pair as they look so comfy, but am sticking to my trainers .......

Thanks Mags, although not sure about those:?

[Mags]

Lots of kiddies are wearing them and I saw lots of adults, including men, wearing them while I was on holiday....:D

[Moli]

Think I will pass on them....:?

[dandysmom]

They are sort of ugly, but comfortable...I see more adults wearing them here than children....am still tempted to get a pair: I rarely ride the subway since I've retired......
