Cheapest Place to buy VANS?

[70isaLimitNotaTarget]

DD (age 11) shoe size 5 is madly keen for a pair of Vans (she can wear them to school so she'd need a black pair)

Where's the cheapest place (either online or a shop) I can get to London, Bluewater ,Lakeside, Westfields.

What the difference between mens/womens? There's a coloured tab on the back IIRC?

She'll have to try a pair instore if we get them online to check sizes.


TIA

I'm just about to pop a pair of US size 5 vans on ebay. Medium blue though. Not sure where the cheapest place to buy them normally is.

Shuh have got quite a few Vans in the sale at the moment. It's free delivery too.
Got DS1 a pair reduced to £22.

I got some for DS in office for £22, but they are a dark denim colour. I don't think black, white etc ever get reduced, they are around £40-45. Will the school mind her wearing canvas plimsolls as school shoes?

They do some styles in sports direct now I think, it's definitely worth a look.
