Children’s clothing sizes are usually determined based on the child’s height. Many manufacturers of children's clothing specify both height and age as size, since children all tend to grow differently.
To determine what clothing size is best for your child, please refer to this chart, which shows sizes with all parameters (height, age, chest, etc.). This approach will help you avoid mistakes and make the right choice!

To determine shoe size, you need to measure the length of the child's foot. It is easiest and most accurate to simply have the child place their foot on a piece of paper and trace it with a pencil or pen. Next, measure the length of the foot from the longest toe to the top heel with a ruler, a tape measurer, or cells on graph paper. Then find the length of the child’s foot in the table and compare it with the size that corresponds to this length.

How to properly take measurements
A — Size/Height. Measure vertically in the front, from the floor to the highest point (top of the head).
B — Chest. Measure in the front, lining up the measuring tape along armpits and shoulder blades. The child’s arms should be hanging freely.
C — Waist. Place the measuring tape horizontally around the waist.
D — Hips. Place the measuring tape horizontally around the hips at the widest point.
F — Insean length. Measure vertically from the floor to the crotch seam.
G — Shoulder length. Measure from the side of the neck to the shoulder blade.
H — Sleeve length. Measure from the shoulder blade to the wrist. The child’s arms should be hanging freely.
G+H — Measurements G + H added together.
