Here's a lovely topic!
8 year old DS gets very damp / sweaty feet, always has. Discovered this when he was at nursery, wearing Clarks shoes all day - he got terrible athlete's foot. So ever since I've spent hours on ebay searching for leather lined shoes every time he needs new ones. Moved on to Geox a year ago after reading about their Respira technology. Can't afford new ones, so off to ebay I go. But he has big (and fast growing) feet for his age (size 3 already) and it's getting very hard to find decent second hand ones in bigger sizes.
But also - almost all Geox trainers and school shoes have a synthetic or leather + synthetic lining and with this he's STILL getting damp feet and the athlete's foot is coming back. Scoured the Geox website and can only find 1 or 2 pairs of totally leather lined shoes but both aimed at much older boys, expensive, and not very nice to look at.
Can anyone recommend another make that has excellent breathability and is leather lined? Loads of the euro makes look great but can't afford to splash out without knowing what they're going to do to his feet - help!
