Confusing Sizing - But Can't Beat the Durability of Crocs
Last bought my 9.5 year old son Crocs nearly 3 years ago. He wears sneakers to school and otherwise Crocs. I was surprised when he told me how long the Crocs had lasted before he wore through the bottom of them. Nothing lasts that long with kids. His old shoes were a size 2 and we wanted a size 3 now. I was confused by the sizing because "Big Kids" starts at a 4 and I assume that he is a "Big Kid". The sizes in order of the pull-down menu are: "Little Kid 1, 2, 3, 6, 10, 11,12, Big Kid 4, 5, 6". But that is not the correct size order. I think the correct size order should be: "Little Kid 6, 10, 11, 12, 1, 2, 3, Big Kid 4, 5, 6". So, a "Little Kid" 3 is larger than a "Little Kid" 12. After thinking they didn't have his size, I finally figured this out and bought the "Little Kid" 3. The shoes fit and are even a bit large. We are happy, but hope to help others who might be confused. What is called "Little Kid" 1, 2, and 3 are really "Big Kid" sizes - that is, they are larger than "Little Kid" 12.
