Many popular and fashionable children’s shoes are made by high-quality European makers, such as Primigi, Aster, Elefanten, Babybotte, Naturino, and Jacadi, all these brands can be had for great prices on eBay. But buying them can be confusing because European sizes don’t match up with sizing on American brands (like Stride Rite), and aren’t always consistent across the European brands, either.
To simplify matters for shoppers, I have put together this sizing conversion table. The European size column is for all brands except Primigi and Aster, which runs a little different so it gets its own column. I hope you find this helpful as you shop for shoes for your little angels!

When you are shopping for European brand shoes on eBay, be sure to search for the European size, as well as the American size - not all sellers will include both, so you will find the greatest number of items by searching both ways.
If you are trying to sell European brands, put both the European and the American shoe size in the title - then the greatest number of buyers will find your items.
