buckle my shoe do nice shoes, although they are quite expensive.
Next shoes are also nice & last well, but they don't do half sizes.

Startrite? Have you any independant shoe shops near you at all? I hate Clarkes too. All the girls shoes are so twee and clunky and looked really uncomfortable on dd.

Where do you live? I know some great places in London that stock Naturino, they are my favorites too.

John lewis always shove Startrite at me, for ds's wide feet. Even tho' the clarks shop manages to fit him up if we go there.

John Lewis also stock Elefanten, which are great for sandals.

There's a great shoe store in Hampstead 'Look Whose Walking' but my favorite is a store in Fulham SW London called Pollyanna, they are just experts in fitting kids shoes and do lots of Naturino shoes. Just bought ds a cute pair of suede boots from Naturino, great.
