what size is the next size in kids shoes after 12
The next size after kids’ size 12 is usually size 13. In some brands, the sizing then jumps to 1 after 13, so it helps to check the brand’s chart before buying.
Quick scoop
- US kids sizes: 12 → 13 → 1.
- UK kids sizes: 12 → 13 → 1 as well, with 13 being the last “little kids” size and 1 the first “big kids” size.
- Best practice: measure the child’s foot and compare it to the store’s size chart, since brand sizing can vary.
