    Are the both definitely two different sizes? Have you gotten a few different opinions from shoe shops?

    You may want to bring her to see a podiatrist or your GP. Sometimes these things can even out as they grow.

    If they're a size different you can buy the shoes to fit her bigger foot and slip an insole in to the other one. You can get kids insoles for about €3 I think in Barratts. It's not idea but it may help tide you over until her shoe sizes even out :)

    What did they say in the shoe shop? Bridget has a half size difference now, she is 5 1/2f in one and 6f in the other. Obviously I got her the 6 and she's fine

    I wouldn't worry about the g and f thing as only clarks bother with that. The insoles are a great idea but weren't necessary in our case.
