How to use your Clarks Junior Foot Measuring Gauge

How to use your Clarks
Junior Foot Measuring Gauge
Please read these instructions carefully before using the gauge.
It’s simple and straightforward but there are a few important things to remember.
The measurement taken will provide a guide to your child’s shoe size and is best taken
when the child is as still as possible. We recommend a couple of practice measurements
on your child to help you achieve the most accurate measurement possible.
1
Make sure your child is standing upright and
wearing socks which fit well. Place the measuring
gauge flat on the floor and position their foot on it,
with their heel in the heel rest. Ensure their weight
is evenly distributed on both feet.

3
Hold down their toes and move the toe slide until
it just touches the tip of their longest toe.
Top Tip: Make sure the foot is straight on the gauge.

Make a note of the length measurement indicated
by the black lines in the circular window. Don’t
forget to add any extra millimetres from the
side scale to the number shown in the window.

To take the width measurement the tape needs to
be positioned across the widest part of the foot.
Firstly, place a finger in the middle of your child’s foot
on the big toe side. Gently move it towards the toes.
You will feel a slight bump which is the big toe joint.

Slide one end of the tape until it sits at the centre
of the joint at the base of the big toe.
6
Slide the other end of the tape until it sits at the
centre of the joint at the base of the little toe.
The tape should now be angled to follow the line
of the joints.
7
Pull gently on the tape until it just rests around
your child’s foot then make a note of the width
measurement in mm at the point indicated by
the black arrow. Do not pull the tape tight as
this will result in a narrow measurement.
Repeat all actions for the other foot.
