I am looking for a pair of closed toe black summer sandals for my DS3 for his summer term at preschool?
I'm struggling to find any! Does anyone have any suggestions?

Do you mean plimsoles (aka 'pumps' or 'daps')?
Every supermarket sells them plus Shoe Zone, Matalan, M+S etc.

I used to always get Geox ones when DS was small. They usually had several different styles but all closed toe.

I had this problem and i think I ended up at Verbaudet or Boden online. Shops in this country stopped doing them at small sizes. You might want to try boarding school uniform shops as I’m sure I spotted some after id bought some.

Oh. I have never really seen closed toe sandals before (or maybe just have never noticed them).

BrookePalomoV · 27/02/2021 22:38

Sorry I saw you wanted Black. No idea about black. Might be worth looking at girls sections

My boys lived in crocs. Comfy, washable and cute.

ThorsMistress · 27/02/2021 22:41

DS lived in these! Will be getting more this year too

Look on a lot of 'Spanish' clothes sites for kids or the childrensalon and places such as trotters. That's often were you get these style of sandals

What about the Nike ones? Is it Rifts maybe.

I recommend these canvas shoes you can get on eBay, they have loads of different styles. I’ve had several pairs for my daughter and was happy with them.

The link that @cakeallday posted had some that look very similar to your current ones but in black.

No problem @Acidrain they were the cutest and longest-lasting shoes my son had when he was 3 (he's now 12 😂).
