Expert Kids’ Shoe Fitting in Iowa City – Fitness Sports
Properly fitted shoes are essential for a child’s foot development, comfort, and injury prevention. At Fitness Sports in Iowa City, our footwear specialists provide professional shoe fittings to ensure your child gets the right size, support, and style for their needs. Whether they’re starting a new sport, need everyday school shoes, or simply outgrowing their current pair, we’re here to help.
Why Professional Shoe Fitting Matters for Kids
Children’s feet grow rapidly—often up to a half-size every few months—and improperly fitted shoes can lead to discomfort, blisters, and even long-term foot issues. Many parents unknowingly buy shoes that are too small, too large, or lack the proper support for their child’s unique foot shape. That’s why at Fitness Sports, we take a scientific approach to shoe fitting with the following steps:
✅ Precision Foot Measurements – We measure both length and width to ensure an ideal fit.
✅ Gait and Arch Analysis – We assess your child’s natural walking or running pattern to find shoes that provide the right support.
✅ Growth Room Consideration – We recommend sizes that allow for natural growth while maintaining a secure fit.
✅ Activity-Specific Guidance – Whether your child needs shoes for school, running, soccer, or general play, we match them with the best options.
Top Brands for Kids’ Shoes – Available at Fitness Sports
We stock a curated selection of high-quality children’s shoes from industry-leading brands known for their superior comfort, durability, and support:
👟 Nike – Stylish and performance-driven, great for active kids and sports.

When to Get Your Child’s Feet Measured
To keep up with their growth, we recommend bringing your child in for a shoe fitting every 6 to 9 months or if they experience any of the following:
- Complaints of foot pain, discomfort, or tightness
- Frequent tripping or clumsiness
- Visible wear on the sides of their shoes
- Difficulty putting on or taking off their shoes
