In order to measure shoe size for infants you will need a flat surface and a metric ruler. You will also need an object with known dimensions, such as a piece of paper or the bottom of a cereal box.

The first step is measuring the length from toe to heel on your infant's foot with your metric ruler. Record this number in millimeters (mm).

The next step is to start measuring from the bottom of the shoe to determine the midpoint or center of your infant's foot, which is about 2.4 cm (1 inch).

Next, you will use a thumbtack to mark where the heel of your infant's foot starts and you will use another thumbtack to mark where it ends. This is because we are mostly concerned with the area under his heel.

Next, measure between these two marks where your infant's toes end, this part is important because it tells us how much room we have left in the shoe.

Now that you know how large his midfoot area is, you can use a ruler or tape measure to make a line 3 mm (0.12 in) past the end of the line on the tape measure.

Now measure your object and see if it is big enough to fit your infant's foot. You can also use a piece of paper and simply fold it in half to see if his foot fits inside. If it is too large, you will need to go down a size; if it is too small, you will need to go up a size.

A typical infant shoe size is between 2 and 3. You will be able to tell if these shoes are on the small or large side by how far his foot sticks out in them or how far they come up over the toes.

Shoe manufacturers may add space inside the shoes for growth, so even if you go up a size, his feet may still fit snugly inside them when worn slightly smaller than a normal shoe size, because this allows for growth.
