Quick Answer
For the best fit, measure your child's foot and choose a VEJA x KS sneaker size that leaves about a thumb's width of growing room. The elastic laces make them easy to slip on, and the leather upper offers durability for daily wear.
Why Sizing Matters for Growing Feet
Kids' feet grow quickly, and a well-fitting sneaker supports healthy development. A shoe that's too tight can cause discomfort and blisters, while one that's too loose may lead to tripping. The VEJA x KS sneakers come in sizes 22/27 for kids and 28/35 for juniors, so you can find the right fit as your child grows.
Because these sneakers feature an integrated elastic lace system, they don't need tying, which is a big plus for busy mornings. However, this also means the fit relies more on the shoe's overall shape and size rather than adjustability, so getting the size right is even more important.
Style and Versatility
The VEJA x KS capsule reimagines the classic Volley sneaker with cherry and lemon motifs, adding a playful touch that kids love. Available in two colorways—lemon argile and cherry petale—these sneakers pair well with casual outfits, school uniforms, and weekend wear.
The leather upper, sourced from southern Brazil and Uruguay and tanned locally, gives the shoes a classic look that ages well. While they're not waterproof, they're sturdy enough for everyday play and easy to wipe clean with a damp cloth.
Sizing Decision Rules
- Measure the foot: Place your child's foot on a piece of paper, mark the heel and the longest toe, and measure the distance in centimeters. Use this measurement to compare with the VEJA size chart. Measure both feet and use the longer one as the reference.
- Add growing room: For growing kids, leave about 1 to 1.5 cm (or a thumb's width) of space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe. This prevents pinching and allows room to grow. If between sizes, choose the larger size for growing room.
- Check the width: VEJA sneakers tend to run true to size but may feel snug for wide feet. If your child has wide feet, consider sizing up or trying them with thin socks. When in doubt, size up for comfort.
- Use the elastic laces: The integrated elastic laces mean the shoe slips on without tying. If your child is between sizes, the elastic can accommodate slight differences, but it won't replace proper sizing. Elastic laces are convenient but don't rely on them to fix a poor fit.
