Can anyone help me find fashionable boys' sandals or canvas shoes that don't cost a fortune?!

I Can never seem to find a combination of low price, fashionable and right size all at once and it's soooo frustrating!

i got some for DS from ASDA

black canvas with skulls and crossbones

£6 i think

failing that try TKMaxx - we got DS a pair of v posh sandals for a fiver

I bought some in Asda for ds too for £12.

I don't suppose they'd win any fashion awards but they weren't too bad. Ds likes them anyway

primark have canvas shoes for dirt cheap.. ds1 loves his but he's 2 so not very fashion concious.

next are good for sturdy and fashionable but slightly pricier but i have to say the kids seem to get loads of wear out of their next shoes, they put up with a lot more rough and tumble than any other shoes... pricey or cheap... so i don't mind paying the money

Thanks I hadn't tried ASDA.
I don't mind paying a bit more for 'ordinary' shoes but last year I forked out for good sandals and they NEVER got worn courtesy of the British summer weather,
Agree re next.

see, i was cruel and just sent them out in sandals anyway

my kids sepnds ll winter with hardly any heating on telling me they're 'tooo hooot mooommmeeeeeee!' so i figured slightly cool toes wouldn't bother them

A bit cool is one thing pissing with rain all summer is another.
