Shop Lace-Up Shoes for Kids
Lace-up shoes for kids, tied once to fit, then ready to go. No morning battle over laces, and no bow coming undone five minutes before school.
Leaps Pro comes in sizes S5 to S7 (roughly EU 32 to 39) and starts at ₹3,499. The elastic laces are tied once to get the fit right, and after that, kids can put the shoes on and take them off without re-tying.
So instead of choosing a shoe based on your child's age and hoping for the best, measure their foot, pick the size, and let them pick the colour.
Order the Size That Fits Now
Age can give you a rough idea. Your child's foot length is much better.
A 2025 study of 369 school-going children in North India found variations in foot type and measurements, including foot length and width. That's another reason to measure your child's foot rather than relying on age alone.
Measure the longer foot from the heel to the longest toe, preferably towards the end of the day when feet are at their largest. Then match the measurement with the size chart below.
| Aretto Size | Foot Length | EU | UK | US | Age Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| S5 | 19.9 to 21.2 cm | 32 to 34 | 13 to 2 | 1Y to 3Y | 6 to 8.5 years |
| S6 | 21.9 to 23.3 cm | 35 to 37 | 2.5 to 4.5 | 3.5Y to 5.5Y | 8.5 to 11 years |
| S7 | 23.3 to 24.6 cm | 37 to 39 | 4.5 to 6 | 5.5Y to 7Y | 11 to 14 years |
If your child sits between two sizes, go for the larger one.
A shoe that feels tight today won't become more comfortable tomorrow. Growing feet have other plans.
Buy Lace-Up School Shoes You Tie Once
These look like proper lace-up shoes. They don't behave like the ones you remember from school.
Leaps Pro uses elastic laces that are tied once to get the fit right. After that, your child can slip the shoes on and off without untying and retying them.
So if you're looking for kids' lace-up shoes because your child likes the look of laces, but you don't particularly enjoy standing at the door fixing a loose bow every morning, this setup makes sense.
And yes, there is one thing these shoes won't teach your child: how to tie a bow. If that's the skill you're specifically looking for, conventional laces are the way to go.
Order Black Lace-Up School Shoes
Need kids' school shoes in black? Carbon Black is the one if you're looking for black lace-up school shoes with a design that doesn't need daily tying.
At ₹3,499, it's the most affordable colourway in the Leaps Pro range, and it comes with a non-marking sole, so it won't leave black marks on school corridors, indoor courts or gym floors.
The same pair works as a lace-up school shoe for boys and girls. Whether you're looking for boys' or girls' lace-up school shoes, the elastic laces stay tied through the school day.
Pick the Colour, the Shoe Is the Same
The colour changes. The build doesn't.
All five Leaps Pro colourways have the same sole, fit and features, so the choice here is pretty straightforward. You pick the size based on the foot measurement. They pick the colour.
| Colourway | MRP | Best Use |
|---|---|---|
| Carbon Black | ₹3,499 | School uniform days |
| Glacier White | ₹3,599 | PE class and white-shoe days |
| Carbon Pink | ₹3,699 | Casual outings and weekends |
| Navy Tusk | ₹3,799 | Indoor sports and after-school practice |
| Terra Carbon | ₹3,999 | Everyday wear with a standout sole |
What You Get in Every Pair You Buy
Every Leaps Pro pair, from ₹3,499 to ₹3,999, comes with the same set of features.
The SuperGrooves sole gives the shoe some room to accommodate growing feet. Elastic laces mean you tie the shoe once and don't have to keep doing it every morning. Midfoot panels help hold the foot in place during quick direction changes, while the padded collar helps keep the heel seated.
There's also a padded tongue to soften pressure from the laces and a SquishyFoam insole for cushioning underfoot.
The Infiknit upper is knitted, so it flexes with movement and lets air through. Underneath, the barefoot sole stays flat from heel to toe and bends where the foot bends, just like our other barefoot shoes. The non-marking outsole helps prevent scuff marks on school, indoor court and gym floors.
Order With a 10-Day Size Exchange
Still unsure about the size? Measure the longer foot and check the table before ordering.
Got the size wrong? No worries. You can exchange the shoes for another size within 10 days, once per order. Free pick-up is available in most locations. Just make sure the shoes are unused and still have their tags and original packaging. Check the return and exchange policy for full details.
Not Ready for Laces Yet?
If your child is below S5, or a tied-once lace still sounds like too much work, there's Leaps Pro V. It uses hook-and-loop straps instead of laces, making it easier for children who aren't quite ready for a lace-up setup. For more active use, explore kids' sports shoes.
Pick the Size. Let Them Pick the Colour.
Measure the longer foot in centimetres and match it to S5, S6 or S7. If you land between sizes, choose the larger one. Then let your child choose the colour. Looking for another everyday pair? Explore our Kids' Shoes collection.
