Large narrow feet - school shoes!

Does anyone have any recommendations of where I can buy school shoes (black) for size 9 (adult) very narrow feet?

I am struggling for my daughter and don't really want to spend £150 on a pair of black lace up style shoes!

Geox.

Geox.

Thought about that but they're still £100+ - these are going to be worn every day to school by a 13 year old girl.
It just seems a bit ridiculous!

Office do their own cheaper version of Dr Martens which are narrower than Docs so they should fit her well

Clarks brogues?

If it s to be believed, Amazon have Clark’s Hamble oak brogues for 47 quid. If Clarks still sell them, they usually do a narrow fit.

Narrow shoes are very expensive. They do last longer.

DS has narrow feet. We've always found that European brands fit best, so sadly, Geox. Rieker too - cheaper but the DM lookalike shoes DD had for school last year didn't last well.

I'm a 9, but I have broad feet. Clarks do a women's 9 in some styles, mostly online.
Start Rite "Angry Angels" go up to a 43 in 2 width fittings, and are around the £60 mark.

Would she wear any of the "boys" styles? They're around the £70 mark.

They do last, and surely her feet can't grow much bigger than a 9?!

Thanks all, will check them out and try some on and hopefully find her something suitable!
