HOW TO MEASURE
Have your child stand on a piece of paper {wearing socks or tights or barefoot, however he/she would wear the shoes} and mark both feel toe and heel. Measure the distance, then add 1/8" - 1/4" to the larger foot, depending on how much growing room is desired. Peep toes tend to fit about a half size larger.

ABOUT DURABILITY AND CONSTRUCTION
Most manufactured shoes are lined with a synthetic leather or pig skin, but Joyfolie shoes are lined with organic and eco-friendly cotton. They have firm ankle support, but the body of the shoe is flexible and light. Because of the light-weight nature of their construction, our shoes tend to fit a bit more roomy than the national average.
Some shoes and accessories contain buttons, flowers, or other small parts. These are secured well, but not recommended for use while little one is sleeping or otherwise unattended.
