Saucony Size & Fit Guide
Kids’ sizes from baby to youth · Between sizes or widths? Choose the larger · Leave a thumb’s width to grow
Find your child’s Saucony size with Saucony’s official kids’ size chart, width tips and growth guide — or stop in for a Brannock fitting at our Kettering, Ohio store.
How it fits
Measure both feet and use the larger measurement.
Leave about a thumb’s width at the front of the shoe for growing room.
Between sizes or widths? Saucony recommends choosing the larger option.
Widths
| Width | Signs it’s the right choice |
|---|---|
| Standard (M) | Start here. No pressure on the sides; the foot sits comfortably within the sole. |
| Wide (W) | Standard feels snug going on, leaves light marks after wearing, or the foot looks wide or spread out. |
| Extra Wide | Standard feels tight even when sizing up, or the foot presses against or over the edge of the sole. |
Extra Wide (Saucony’s “EW”) shows as XW in our size picker on the styles we carry in that width.

How fast kids’ feet grow
| Age | Average growth |
|---|---|
| 0–15 months | ½ size every 2 months |
| 15 months–2 years | ½ size every 2–3 months |
| 2–3 years | ½ size every 3–4 months |
| 3–5 years | ½ size every 4 months |
| 5–7 years | ½ size every 6 months |
| 7–10 years | ½ size every 6–12 months |
| 10–12 years | ½ size every 6–12 months |
Kids’ feet can grow up to a half size every 2–4 months, so Saucony recommends measuring regularly.
Growing room
Aim for about ½ inch (1–1.5 cm) of space past the longest toe — about a thumb’s width.
Signs shoes are too small: red marks, toes curled or pressed at the front, or your child pulling the shoes off.
Signs shoes are too big: the heel slips out when walking, or your child trips or shuffles.
How to measure
- Have your child stand with their heel against a wall.
- Measure from the wall to the tip of the longest toe.
- Measure both feet and use the larger measurement.
- Leave about a thumb’s width for growing room when choosing a size.
