The APMA sees the Seal as a way of helping consumers make informed decisions about foot health.WHY IS IT REALLY IMPORTANT FOR KIDS?• According to the APMA, nearly 78% of Americans have experienced foot problems as a result of wearing uncomfortable or ill-fitting shoes during childhood.• The feet of young children are soft and pliable and can grow up to a half size every 2-4 months depending on their age, so well-constructed, comfortable and flexible footwear is important. Wearing ill-fitting, uncomfortable or stiff, rigid shoes can have lasting, long-term effects to developing feet. Feet are still growing into their teen years making quality and comfort important whether it's their first pair of shoes or their fifteenth.Product measurements were taken using size 7 Big Kid, width M.
