I am looking for 2 pair for dd size 9 and ds adult 1.
I usually get ds startrite and find they last well but the thought of paying £90 for 2 pair of shoes is a bit much so anyone seen any good deals around ?

For anyone else amazon have startrites in the sale , just not my size

Is it too early to get school shoes?
If I leave it later will they have run out?

TwoHot - generally they do tend to run low on sizes as you get towards sept and the shoe shops become a nightmare in the last couple of weeks of the hols (fed up kids, harrassed mums, stressed out sales staff - you get the picture!!)

Lilyloo - have you got a Clarks outlet near you? They don't have as much choice but the prices can be much lower - I got DS2's last pair of size 1 black leather school shoes for £16

No don't think we have a Clarks outlet near here !

Clarks have an offer on at the moment- buy a pair of childrens shoes and get 20% off a pair of ladies shoes.

Don't think TK Max do clarkes but these are kangaroos which fit my dd well.
