Our granddaughter is 7 and wears a size 11 shoe. What size do you think would be better for her a size 1 or a 13? :) Thanks for any help.

I would not go any larger than the 13 or she is apt to turn her ankle. I only went up one size for my grandkids and the skates have room to grow but not so big that they are loose.

The problem is that my experience with the Chicago skates was that their sizes did not correlate with the regular shoe sizes. I would suggest going to a sporting goods store that carries skates or to a local skating rink and try on a pair that fits.

They run REALLY large, get the smaller size. The 13 will be very large on a size 11.

I would. I wear an 8.5 so best to wear shoes. I can see that it would be tight with a size 13! But in the am I go barefoot. Good luck!

Hi I bought these for my granddaughter because she is always wearing my heals. She is 2 and wears a toddler size 5 shoe. These shoes are super big on her but so are my heals. I think you will be fine with a child size 1.

Agreed, my daughter (age 4) wears a size 10 soccer shoe and the 4-6 gives her some extra room. Probably a couple of shoe sizes. The socks are by age range and as far as I can tell, they seem pretty true to size.

I would recommend size 1-4.. you can't go wrong because he can grow with this size. If he is a size 13, it is cushion and nice tight straps so his feet won't slide around . 13 1/2 is an average 6yr old size. Good choice gift to buy I must add!

My Grandaughter is a US size 11 and they fit her perfectly. Hope this helps.

My daughter is also 7 with an 11 shoe size. We purchased a size 12 Ice Skate for her and the fit good.

It seems logical to get the medium so she can grow into them based on this sizing info online. Size Shoe Size Approx. InchesSmall Toddler 7 - Little Kid 11 5.5" - 6.75"Medium Little Kid 11 - Little Kid 2 6.75" - 8.13"

I would say a 12 yo with average size feet could just fit into a medium. But, given at that age their feet can really grow, you may want to get a large to be on the safe side. The back of the shoe where her heel would rest has a raised rim around so it would not be very comfortable if she had to shove her feet into a too-small size.

My daughter is 7 and wears 12.5 shoes so I bought her the smallest size because it technically goes up to a size 1 (which is the next size up from 12.5). So they'd fit her now, but if her feet grow a lot in the next year you might only get one year out of them. If you get the next size up they may be a bit too big for her this year but they'd last longer as she grows.

The straps are adjustable so you should be fine with a size 13 shoe. I have room with size 11 to expand strap. Please hit "helpful" reply if this helped you.

My son wears a size 1 shoe and I bought him the size 1-3 and they are a little big. I would say go with the 3-5 size.

My daughter has the smallest size, she wears a 12 in shoe, and I had to use the smallest setting on the skate. I think they may be a little big for your granddaughter.

What size shoe does your daughter wear? My daughter is 4. Got the small, but they are still a little big on her. She wears size 9/10 shoes and the small size is 12-2

My twins girls are 7 and on the small side. They normally wear size 12 - 12 and a half. We purchased size 13 for them and they fit them fine. They probably run a little smaller than, but pretty much true to size. If you want a little leeway for growth, it wouldn't hurt to order 1 size larger than their usual shoe size. I hope this helps you out a little!

They say you are supposed to buy skates a the correct size unless you are in a 1/2 size. I would buy her a size 13. Amazon has a great return policy of they are too small.

Just got back. Happily paid the extra twenty dollars at the rink which I would have had to paid to the online merchant. Also the counter person (a teenager) was able to quickly explain riedell's sizing. Junior/youth 1 - 13. The it goes into women's 1 - up. So once the child is past size thirteen, it will be back to size one. She tried them on and likes them. Thank you for the comments/advice.
