These two descriptions about size seem to contradict each other. My son wears a youth size 10 which should be a skate size 9, so which should I order

Hi Kimberly! My son wears an youth size 11 normally, but his skates are a size 12R and they fit him perfectly. What we actually did was go and get him sized at our local pro shop, with the same brand before ordering here. Hope this helps.

These skates fit my son who wears a toddler 9 in shoes. He has had them since he wore about a toddler 6. The skates aren't very large but I think they would fit a little larger than a 9.

Hi Dan, a size 5.5 shoe is covered by our SMALL size in the Footminders Comfort and Casual models. The Kids model is for small children, your son wears a young adult shoe size. Plesae let us know if that answered your question, thanks!

Because there was not item indicated I cant answer. If you are speaking about the boys roller skates...... We found the size to be very accurate.

You will need to find a "child" size skate and then order a size 12 for US sizes. for reference: http://www.zappos.com/c/shoe-size-conversion

We ordered a shoe size up for my daughter. Some of the reviews stated that the skates ran small. We were glad that we did because they did look a little small when they received them. Our 5 year old wears a 12, so we ordered a JR13. Fits great, hope this helps.

I ordered at jr 12 & a jr 3 and one came in toddlers and one came in youth. I had to order skates 3 times before correct youth size came. The jr. size 3 came in a youth size so you would be safe for that but the jr. 12 was a toddler but this did not make sense to me because but there is toddler size 1-13 and youth 1-12 also and amazon does not clarify the size is any brands of skates its very confusing. Good luck the skates work great though!

My guess is that kids wear different kinds of shoes with the skates. Having them be somewhat wide accommodates different shoe styles.

They are all kids sized so it has to be a toddler youth size. I bought the largest a 3. They were great skates

My grandson is 6 and wears a size 13. His feet are growing so very fast and I bought a size 2 since he wont use them much until summer. They are big but he is just learning to skate so it's fine that they are a bit big right now. Glad I bought them big. Good luck.

As fast as their feet grow, I would go with an 11 or maybe even a 12. Remember, this is a training skate with a double blade. I was surprised when I got it that it was not a normal ice skate. I returned it and bought my daughter regular skates...she took to them very quickly and never needed to use this "training wheel" skate.

This is a "youth" size. I'm not sure if they are made any smaller. If you live close to a skateboard shop I should suggest visiting it to check sizes.

I am assuming it means "Juvenile" sizes 10 to 13. I found they ran small. I think my 4 year old grandson wore a size 11 1/2 or 12 shoe, but I had to reorder the next size up. They look sharp. Unfortunately, they broke right after the warrantee ran out. I read a review from another customer who had a similar experience.

I believe these are youth sizes not toddler sizes. I bought my daughter and son a pair and they were as expected, except for the lights we had roller derby send us another set because they didn't work, and I think another were dead again shortly after. The lights don't last as long.

Skate is ready to wear. No need to.sharpen. I would go up one size. Read previous reviews as well and that will help guide you in size as it did for me.

Just got back. Happily paid the extra twenty dollars at the rink which I would have had to paid to the online merchant. Also the counter person (a teenager) was able to quickly explain riedell's sizing. Junior/youth 1 - 13. The it goes into women's 1 - up. So once the child is past size thirteen, it will be back to size one. She tried them on and likes them. Thank you for the comments/advice.
