Well the brand new clarks shoes, bought a day before the new school year started, are wrecked. So, my son's £38 shoes lasted 7 weeks. I'm not blaming Clarks - my 7 year old son has no concept on looking after shoes - there is too much football playing / tag / racing / apparently just dragging his feet around the playground going on to worry about shoes. I had to literally wring his socks out they were so wet from playing on the wet playground with a massive hole that has appeared over night.
So, I'm unlikely to change my DS' behaviour in the short term (although believe me - I am trying!!) but I'm not willing to spend £38 every 6 weeks.
Any recommendations for reasonably priced, robust shoes that might last more than a half term (or failing that, cheap as chips shoes that I won't mind replacing every 6 weeks!!!).
Thanks
