Most hard-wearing school shoe/boot for teen boys

[Rabbitheadlights]

Posting for traffic, as the title suggests can you tell me the most hard-wearing school shoes/boots you've discovered for teen boys? Ds can ruin a pair of shoes in 3 to 4 weeks and I mean literally falling apart. He had a pair of kicker boots and Deakin shoes, aswell as a couple of pairs of supermarket cheapies last academic year and most of it was in lockdown. Please tell me there is an indestructible shoe out there???

Doc martens.

Ideally combat sole ones.

Doc martens. Maybe not as indestructible as they once were but if you stick to the classic style they should last.

Two pairs of Doc Martens and have them resolved.

my teens wear trainers or decathlon hiking shoes when it's wet.

Marks and Spencer's seem to survive ds football playing at lunch and breaks.

How stern is school? Decent hiking shoes are pretty solid. Docs if they’re pains in arses that demand black leather shoe.

Try Solovair, it was DrMartens competitor/sister but while Doc went all overseas and a bit rubbish solovair are still produced in the uk and are hard to destroy.

Black Chelsea boots from Schu. They were £24 in the sale.

Were your kickers proper kick high Kickers or were they the shoddy sports direct kickers? They really aren't the same shoes.

Treads. Only shoes that have lasted mine a year. They come with a 12 month indestructible guarantee too.

Another one for Treads.

Treads. Even the caustic feet of ds2 can't kill them!

Another one for Treads - though we are now at the max of the sizes they offer! Hoping DS does not grow any more next year!

Is there anything that survives lunchtime football ⚽? DS ruined every pair of shoes we bought him last year, including the flaming £65 Clark's pair in about a month. I'm so pissed off with his shoes looking knackered. School would not go for Doc Martins, I don't think. Has to be shoes not boots or trainers.

Dr Martens. And I always say this, but if you look for the ones sold for food service staff they have black stitching and are way cheaper - like these. My ds is super hard on shoes, and he has been wearing his current ones two years now ad they are still great

Doc Martens shoes, they do one without yellow stitching that DD2 wears for school.

You can get school shoes at Dr Marten. They don't just do boots.

Definitely Treads. My DS's lasted a full year of lunchtime football and all kinds of abuse. He chucks himself around a lot and his shoes get a lot of abuse!

Sorry @MrsPnut, cross-posted with you.

Treads. They are indestructible.

My ds wears kangol harrow shoes...have lasted until he's grown out of them...lasted longer than the kickers he had

Thanks folks..I'll check out Treads and DMs...I had no idea they did other styles apart from the classic lace up boot!

Thankyou everyone will have a look at treads and Dr martens
