move to next shoe size

[Guest guest]

Hi,

My son has bilateral clubfeet and has been wearing the FAB 23/7 for a

little over 3 months now. He's in the markells and his current shoe is

small for him in length, but not in width. What i mean is that his

toes are coming out of the shoes, but other than that they are not

tight for him. When i had first notcied that his toes were beginning

to come out of the shoes, I'd moved him to a bigger size, however,

those were loose for him and he would constantly keep taking out the

shoes and was miserable due to this and cried constantly! As a result

i took him to the doctor and had to go back to the smaller shoes.

His doctor has suggested to wait a while longer in these shoes and

asked me to make the switch when i see distinctive red marks on his

feet (not the regular redness).

Have any of you experienced something like this? I'm not sure when

would be a good time for me to move him to the bigger size? Any

suggestions?

Thank you!

That is interesting, because our son kicked his shoes off when they

were too small. I guess they are all different! Do you know if he

has the N or M width? I would think that could make a difference.

was in 00 and went to size 1 after 3 months, both narrow

width. I know that doesn't help, but I guess as long as your son is

comfortable in the smaller size, the won't do any harm that I know

of...his toes won't be squished since they are open toe.
