to take back a 6 month old pair of Child's Clarks Shoes

[skeggy81]

because the tongue of the shoe fell off.
Not sure whether this is normal wear and tear in that period.
Looking for opinions really before I risk embarassing myself.
Incidently lots of people have complained on the Clarks website re the quality of this particular shoe.
Really replacwment will same size etc if they do.

I would yes, I know kids can be rough with their shoes but you expect Clarks to be decent quality & you pay for this, I bought my 2 year old Clarks shoes that were £38 last week. I almost expect them to be gold plated for that & certainly up to kids treatment lol.

I would be nice about it though, obviously take the shoes with you & see what they say. No reason to be embarrassed at all :)

I would. They replaced shoes for new when the velcro strap wore out.

Yes I would.

Thank ladies. Will do although can't find receipt. Hoping credit card statement will do.

I don't think you should. 6 weeks maybe, but 6 months is pushing it.

Personally I'd be ecstatic if a pair of Clarks lasted 6 months. Ds can't seem to manage a pair lasting past 10 weeks! That's the maximum I've had from last few pairs so I've said never again as a pair of Kickers lasts his 18 months plus. He grows out of them before every destroying them. IMO Clarks are appalling quality lately.

After 6 months, most children would have grown a size anyway.

Maybe i will get his feet measured 1st and play it by ear.
