Every pair on Baby Bisou is labeled the same way: US size · foot length in inches · typical age. So US 6.5 · 5.1 in · 18-24 months is one size, with the two things worth checking. The EU size and the length in centimeters are in the chart below.
How to measure
- Stand your child on a sheet of paper, heel against a wall. Measure in the late afternoon, feet are slightly bigger then.
- Mark the tip of the longest toe and measure from the wall to the mark, in inches (a ruler or tape measure is fine; a centimeter ruler works too, the chart has both).
- Measure both feet and use the larger one.
- Match that number to the foot length column below. If your child is between two sizes, take the larger one.

US sizes run infant/toddler 3 to 13.5, then youth 1 and up. The insole is about 0.4 in (1 cm) longer than the foot, that is the growing room. Ages are a guide only, children's feet vary a lot. Go by the measurement, not the age.
