Warm school shoes, is there such a thing?

DD’s in reception. Has a pair of decent Clark’s school shoes that so far have been pretty robust (similar-ish to https://www.clarks.com/en-gb/jazzy-jig-kid/26175306-p )

Insists on continuing to wear dresses and tights to school (knitted) no interest in trousers and warm socks, fine in herself but complains feet are always cold. Bit unusual as this kid tends to run hot and shun jumpers/coats (although thankfully not in January so far!)

I totally sympathise as I really hate the cold myself. School policy is ‘sensible black school shoes, not trainers or boots’. (Which I understand, not complaining about it.)

Is there a shoe style that is a bit warmer but still ‘sensible’ for this time of year? 🤔

Thank you!

Boots are winter footwear, not shoes. It such a stupid unfair policy. What is the reasoning behind “ no boots” policy? Apart from making children less comfortable at school playground of course.
No proper advice OP but feel your pain.
