Exactly that! When we buy school shoes in September for dc my partner wants them to last all year as they are expensive (DS usually has Clark’s and Dd usually has start rite). But is that realistic?
Often by the end of the year they are falling apart - I notice this more with Clark’s. DD’s school shoes are from start rite and still in perfect condition but she’s outgrown.
Obviously been off school for a few months and they are going back for 3 weeks before summer.
But do you expect a pair to last all year? My sons feet hardly grow for the last two years he’s only
grown half a size or so. Dd has jumped up one size recently!!
Aibu to think some years that two pairs might be needed? Obviously have no choice but to buy new if they have been outgrown!

How long do you expect a pair of school shoes to last?
