Foot problems at ages 2 to 8 and shoe fit guidance
A reader asks if bare feet aid arch development and if inexpensive shoes can protect feet. Dr Thosteson replies most children have healthy feet and shoes mainly protect, not build, the arch. Proper fit matters most. shoes should accommodate growth, not constrict toes, with frequent renewals as feet grow. Signs of trouble include odd gait, frequent shoe removal, or frequent stumbles. Going barefoot can build foot strength, but avoid overly stiff footwear. For ankle support, high tops may help during learning to walk but become unnecessary as the ankle strengthens.
