DD needs new black shoes. Preferably lace-up and leather. My usual go to shops are failing me. Where are your teen DD's shoes from and what are they like?

Shoes must be formal shoes and not black leather trainers or plimsols.

Loads of choice at Shuh, even for my daughter's Size 8 feet :)

Both my DDs go for Clark's lace up brogues most years.

I’m really surprised that any school would ban girls from wearing lace ups, especially as they are so much more supportive for their feet and because lots of school now have gender neutral uniforms. I bet the boys aren’t banned from laces.

Me too @BigFatBloomers that's just silly. At my dc school they all wear trainer type shoes in black. Very practical and good support.

owlmummy dd had the black leather vans. They looked super grotty after one term. Not massively supportive either!

Just bought my dds new school shoes from Russell & Bromley. She’s going into year 11. Good choice in there.
