Always had major problems getting shoes for dd as her ankle is e fittign and the rest of her foot is f. The only shoes she has are a pair of school shoes and lellykellys as they were the only ones to fit her correctly.
Her school plimsolls which we've previously got fine from clarkes are too small now and we spent the day yesterday trying to get a replacement pair but couldnt.

I hardly think the school will think her lellikellies a suitable alternative so what do we do??

SHe has no trainers/doodles or anything else either....

Can you go to a John Lewis? They were v helpful for a friend of mine whose DD had enormous feet when in year 6. They were able to get an adult size 9 plimsolls that actually fitted her.

Russell & Bromley or John Lewis.

do those velco style ones not fit either??

What about some canvas lace-ups, converse type things.

doodles come in width fittings & then they have the adjustable strap - if doodles are no good have you tried the start right version? They fit DS better for some reason.

My daughter has E fitting feet and is fine in the clarks velcro plimsolls. As far as I know they are only one width aren't they??

is the problem that Clarks sizes now dont fit properly or they arent in stock?

If they arent in stock in store you can order online for free delivery to store for fitting.
