Where do you get school shoes?

[admylin]

My 2 dc are coming back to UK to primary school with uniform (they can't wait) and they will need balck shoes - no further specifications so I guess they just have to be all black. Where should I go to get them? I'll have one weekend before they start so have to get them then. Is Marks and Spencer a good place to start? I'll be getting the trousers there.

shoe zone esq type cheapo market stall type places when they were little.

now its usually a skater shop or Treds.

get measured in Clarks/startrite then look on eBay!
Ive bought brand new clarks shoes on there (will only ever buy new!) which are still available in the shop at £30 odd for around £7.00 plus couple of quid postage. Bargain!
