and therefore save a fortune by buying Clarkes/Startrite etc shoes in outlet stores where there are no fitters? It surely isn't that hard and everytime I have 'tested' the dc's shoes to see if they need new ones I have been right. I would love some insider knowledge on what they are told to look for though .
Everytime it comes to shoe-buying time dh tells me what a mug I am blah blah, so I have said I will put it to the mumsnet jury.
As a side comment, do you all see it as crucial that open-toed sandals are fitted in the same way as winter shoes given that a lot of the foot is not enclosed - the cost of these from Clarkes et al seems ridiculous given that they get so little wear out of them, depending on the weather.
We are in the position where we can afford these prices but it would be lovely, and would free-up the money for other fun stuff, to think we didn't need to!

AIBU?
To think shoe-fitting isn't rocket science and to ask if anyone could give me some pointers so I could do it myself...
