Been at this parenting malarkey for long enough to know better but just back from another fruitless, and alas, shoeless mission. Sadly my second DD, almost 7, is not into black shoes. Or ones that fit. And only wants the same DMs as her big sister, which is obviously unacceptable.
Just ordered something online which will probably be rejected.
I am not sufficiently over my own childhood trauma concerning a particularly hideous pair of Clarks grey T-bars (wtf we're you thinking, DM?) to be ready for this battle. Again 🤣
I'd be delighted to garner any tips, similarly hideous shoe-shopping experiences, please. 🙏

What's wrong with the DMs?

Big sis not happy to have the same. I've ordered a different pair of DMs so praying these will be sufficient!

Sainsburys toezone shoes every time.

Good quality, reasonable prices and they are generally pretty chunky and solid.
