Its dark blue tone pairs naturally with jeans, shorts, jinbei, yukata, casual pants, school-style outfits and everyday children’s clothing. It is a practical choice for boys and girls, and one of the easiest TabiRela Kids colors to wear daily.

Size Guide for TabiRela Kids Denim

Marugo children’s sizes are based on Japanese centimeter sizing. To choose the right size, measure your child’s foot from the heel to the tip of the big toe. If your child has wide feet, strong feet or is between two sizes, choosing one size up is usually recommended for better comfort.

Japanese Marugo Size Child Foot Length Approx. EU Size Size Advice
14 cm 13.5 to 14 cm EU 22 approx. For very young children with slim to normal feet.
15 cm 14.5 to 15 cm EU 24 approx. Choose 16 cm if the foot is wide.
16 cm 15.5 to 16 cm EU 25 approx. Comfortable size for normal feet.
17 cm 16.5 to 17 cm EU 27 approx. Choose 18 cm for stronger or wider feet.
18 cm 17.5 to 18 cm EU 28 approx. Good size for daily use.
19 cm 18.5 to 19 cm EU 30 approx. Common size for older children.
20 cm 19.5 to 20 cm EU 31 approx. Choose 21 cm if more space is needed.
21 cm 20.5 to 21 cm EU 32 approx. Largest children’s size in this series.

Important: EU size conversions are approximate. The most reliable reference is always the foot length in centimeters. For split-toe tabi shoes, a little comfort space is recommended so the big toe can sit naturally inside the shoe.

The split-toe shape may feel unusual during the first few minutes of use. After a short adaptation period, the feeling usually becomes natural and comfortable.

Who Is the Denim Model Recommended For?

TabiRela Kids Denim is recommended for children who enjoy comfortable, lightweight and original footwear. It is also a good choice for parents looking for Japanese shoes that are easy to wear, easy to match and different from ordinary sneakers.

Because of its simple and versatile color, the Denim model is one of the best options for a first pair of TabiRela Kids. It is also a thoughtful gift for children who enjoy Japan, Japanese clothing, tabi footwear or original everyday shoes.
