The footminder website indicates the SK is the smaller size? I have a 4 year old and wears a 9 (pre-school) size in his stride rite sneakers.

Yes, the SK size is the smaller of the two. The Footminders site indicates that it starts at size Youth 11 because at that age is usually when toddlers start showing signs of low arch problems. Your son should be able to wear the SK with no problems for a while. Thanks!

i think it would be too big. that size is equivalent to shoe size 11-13. I have it for my son and his size 10 foot is still too small

We have this exact same problem. The boot says it is a US child's 4, but it is much smaller than my daughter's size 3 paddock boots of a different brand.

I would go 2 sizes bigger than street shoes he wears. That's what we did on both kids and fit perfectly because you will want to double ands maybe triple your socks... Good luck.

I got a 3 for my 9 year old. They are for bigger kids. Remember though that they run nearly a size smaller that usual. I had to return mine because of that reason.

I wish I could help you better - I bought this for my niece last year. She was also 3 at the time. They are play shoes and were a little big for her - but that did not matter - she loved them. I think you would be fine - the great thing about Amazon is the no hassle return policy. They are fun shoes for "dress up" play.

I wish I could be of more help to you. I purchased these for my granddaughter's 4th birthday. She is tall, yet petite. You would be a better judge of a child that age's foot size. Good luck.

Hard to say since that is right in the middle of the Two. The 4 has a large foot, and could stretch to fit the 12. It it was a size 11 I would say for sure get the size 4 but since it is a 12 it could really go either way. Also make sure you take into account for shin guards or other types of padding. I can't give you a 100% accurate answer, but if it was me I would go smaller first since the material is stretchable.

I bought a size 4 for my 9 year old grandson on his birthday last year. He is normal height for his age.

Bought these for my Grandson , he is three yrs old and wears a size 9, he wears them at the smallest setting there is plenty of room for size 10 or 11, The skates are quite sturdy and well made, they will last years. He loves them, easy to use. Hope this helps

My son is 6 and uses size 13 Adidas gym shoes. The x-small fit him well. I bought a pair in small, too, because I wasn't sure what size to buy. Now, I can use the small socks when he is a little bigger.

My son wears a size 1 shoe and I bought him the size 1-3 and they are a little big. I would say go with the 3-5 size.

Our son (age 8, size 3) has orthotics formed by a doctor but they do not fit in sport shoes very well. I ordered Footminders for him. They fit in his shoes and he loves them. I got two opinions the first podiatrist didn't suggest the inserts, the second did.

mine are really nice! I ordered a size 10 shoe and got a size ten shoe. Your son will like them a lot.

I'm assuming that SK stands for "Small Kid" because my 6-year-old wears the Youth 11-13. The other size (K 1-3 1/2) is for the next larger size. So for your son, it doesn't look like they have ones large enough for him.

Is that his shoe size? I bought these skates one size larger than my grandson's current shoe size and with heavy socks they worked fine at Christmas and still fit with regular gym socks now. He loves the skates for rink and sidewalk.

My 9 year-old daughter wears a size 1 in regular shoes. I bought a size 2 in these skates just to get a couple of years use out of them. The size 2's are a little big, but they fit well enough for her to skate around our driveway. These skates seem to run true to regular shoe size.

Hi Levan! To tell you the truth it's all in the cut. I say that because my son sometimes wears 10 in a half (those being a bit tight but wearing it he says they kind of mold to his feet), 11 (which is his size) and even 11 in a half in a pinch. We believe because they're made in different countries they're not consistent and also since while they're being cut on the presser cutter (at the factory) the ones on the top are smaller than ones on the bottom. So as you see is all a lucky straw! So far with the shoes we've got (3 of them in grey and 2 on black with white) are just right... I believe my self that you have to play a little as you do at the store when you're there to purchase them. Amazon has a lovely arrangement with PRIME service. (It cost I believe $75 for the same address for a year NO LIMITS!!) It's free shipping and free returns. We use it and it's very practical. Amazon authorizes the return label you make a copy of it and take to UPS service. NO questions asked. My son has being wearing them since he was 13 years old, now he's 33. (Where does the time go?) NO other sneakers for him at all, not even the stylish that they're so popular now!! He says that they're VERY COMFORTABLE! (Let me tell you that these shoes are becoming very popular again, not so long ago their price was very low and now has double and triple in some stores, on the web and real!! SUPLY AND DEMAND!! (This particular color and style of sneaker now are hard to find on either stores!!) I hope you'll get what you need and want. Enjoy yourself. have a wonderful life! Stay well! My best regards.
