Present for the 12st birthday of a girl

My niece has a bd in the end of the month and I have heard that Vans are very popular amongs skateboarders but I still think they are too ugly especially for a girl. So what should I do find something else or buy these?

The point is to get something she likes, not something you like! Have you asked her mum what she wants?

By the way it's 12th not 12st :)

Right Smile . If I ask her mum she'll probably tell me to buy something useful so she won't get these ugly shoes she wants Smile

Can you ask her?

Vans do lots of styles for girls, including Hello Kitty (although I think a lot of 12yo would find that babyish) so you might be surprised by the range. I don't think it's a bad thing if a 12yo girl wants shoes that are comfortable rather than worrying about prettiness, anyway :) but if in doubt, get her gift vouchers for a trainer shop (Schuh are good if there's one where she lives).

Voucher is always a good idea. They have the same model but it's cheaper on amazon.
