I bought these shoes for my son who wears a 1 1/2 shoe size. He even wears a 1 on some brands. I had bought him another pair of sketchers earlier in the week and I purchased a size 2. Realizing that sketchers might run a bit small I ordered a size 2 in this pair. They were still too small. Other than that the shoe was perfect and a plus with no shoe laces. Will not return because I end up paying for the shipping back but will probably think twice before I order sketchers online again.
