Shoe size is really different by shoe maker
Baby/kids foot grows so fast – choosing right size shoes is really important for kids foot health.
I knew “written size” is different by shoe brand, but this difference is critical for little foot.
(I already made mistake buying kids shoes online sometime…)
So, where is good shoe store for baby/kids can to measure foot size properly?

ASICS KIDS Ginza (Japanese brand)
asics is one of the famous Japanese sports shoe bland, and they have KIDS specialized store in Ginza.
Now Ana and Elsa special collaboration model from “Frozen2” were big hit.
Unfortunately most of the size were quickly sold out… but store decollation still cute for now.
There are also Disney collaboration model, I found “Ariel” model from “Little mermaid”, “Woody, Buzz lightyear, Aliens” model from Toy story.
My friend’s kid wears Ariel model shoes, she is very popular at kinder garden.
They have kid’s foot scale machine at this store.
It is very helpful to find best size shoes for your kids.
Better to go on weekday if you want to use it, as this size machine reservation are mostly all taken on weekend.
(if you can, make reservation on weekend.)
