With over 40 years designing sandals for kids, at Surefit we know what's good for little feet when it comes to kids leather sandals.
Shop our range that includes quality leather sandals for babies, toddler girls sandals and boys sandals too! With lightweight flexible soles, soft genuine leather, and self-fastening straps, we're all about the best sandals for little feet.
Important things to think about when picking sandals for your toddler specifically are whether you opt for open or closed toes, and open or closed heel. Our range of sandals for toddlers have closed toes and heel to offer maximum protection for the littlest feet in the family. Closed heels keep toddler sandals in place and promotes stability for busy kids!
Kids sandals should feel secure without rubbing or slipping. The heel should sit firmly in place, straps should be adjustable but not tight, and toes should be fully supported within the sole. A good fit helps prevent discomfort during all-day wear.
As a general guide, kids sandals should allow approximately 8-10mm of space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe.
Because sandals are worn barefoot or with thin socks, too much extra room can affect stability and increase the chance of tripping.
This also provides enough room for natural growth and foot movement while still maintaining proper support and stability.
Example: Biggest foot measures 150 mm. Look for a shoe size that is 158 - 160 mm.
Closed-toe sandals offer added protection for active children, particularly during play and outdoor activities. They help shield toes while still providing breathability, making them a practical choice for everyday wear. We find closed-toe sandals are particularly well-suited to toddlers.
A well-fitting pair of kids sandals should feel secure at the heel, allow natural movement across the ball of the foot, and provide space at the toe for growth. Your child’s toes should sit comfortably without pressing against the front of a closed-toe sandal, or hanging off the front of open-toe sandals. The shoe should not slip when walking. Regular fit checks are important, as children’s feet grow quickly.
Leather sandals are breathable, flexible and durable, making them a comfortable option for warmer months. They help reduce moisture build-up and soften over time for even more comfort!
Supportive, well-fitting sandals are suitable for regular wear in warmer weather. For very active days or sports, closed shoes may still be a better option.
Buying kids sandals online should feel easy and risk-free. If the fit isn’t right, it’s important to have the option to exchange or return, which is what we offer at Surefit. We recommend checking the fit of the sandals on your child or children as soon as your order arrives.
