To ask how much you've spent on school shoes this year?

[MrsWinnibago]

I took DDs aged 10 and 6 for new shoes yesterday and it cost me EIGHTY TWO POUNDS.

DD1s were 42 and DD2s were 40! Since when did little kids' shoes cost 40 quid!?

I remember them being much less last year! Something like 28-35 pounds...am I imagining it or have shoes gone up a LOT!?

about 170
2 pairs of shoes and 2 pairs of trainers.

£8 for DD, still got to get shoes for DS.

Both mine have long, narrow feet so I've always felt Clarks a necessity to get a decent fit but the quality has gone massively downhill (IMHO). Clarks have stated more than once that their shoes are designed to last 3 months and I've had enough of shelling out for sub standard shoes. I've just discovered that Tesco does a narrow fit school shoe and it fits better than any of the Clarks styles that Brantano had in stock. Happy! What I'm going to do about DS who is 8 years old and measures adult size 7 is another question!

Ds1 school shoes £65 and plimsolls
Ds2 school shoes £39 and plimsolls ... So about £120. This will last till about February when they will need bigger sizes.

£24.99 on DDS from Clark's outlet
£0 on ds as he has a friend with same width size and we get his hand downs. They are always in OK condition and Clark's.

However I have brought from m&s shoezone and others and not found them any better than Clark's or any worse so what ever suits at the time is my motto

[Chorister]

DD £50 navy blue patent leather.

DS £20 black leather reeboks (more shoe than trainer, but more practical than actual shoes! Sports Direct for my boys shoes!)

Also indoor shoes came in at £12 for 2 pairs.

And they spend more time in the indoor cheap shoes than the outdoor expensive shoes!!

£82 all in then faints for shoes.
