Boys shoes?

[ihearttc]

Bit of a long shot but yet again Im having an absolute nightmare getting school shoes for my DS! He's had some Buckle My Shoe Rowdy ones since september which have been fab but he is just about grown out of them and knowing how long it normally takes to find anything that fits him Im starting early-would ideally love some more of them in a size 32 but can't find any anywhere! He is only 4 but has monster size feet so I need ones which sort of look young and trainer like as opposed to big heavy school shoes if that makes sense.

Came across a fab wesbite today called Javari which has loads of really cool boys shoes on there and was really impressed with the price and the choice and have found several I actually like but just wondered if anyone had anything good or bad to say about the brands-Umi and Norvic. We tried some Ricosta ones on today which did actually fit him but were £60 and looked like they should have been on a teenager rather than a 4 year old but will have to get them if can't find anything else.

Sorry know its not exactly style and beauty but figured you'd all have an idea of what I mean!

We have had both Ricosta and Umi shoes for our DSs. Both excellent quality.

Again we've had Ricosta and they have lasted well.
This site is good.

don´t buy online, have them fitted.

just bought some fab trainers (leather) for DS2 (4, size 13 feet) at Russell and Bromley for 20 (down from 42). DS says they are cool.

Oh trust me we've tried to have them fitted lol! Its not only the lengh of his feet that are the problem its the width as he has such a high instep that 90% of shoes simply won't go over his foot.

We live 25 miles away from the nearest town with shoe shops in so we travelled yesterday and tried Clarks (which I knew would be pointless!),John Lewis,2 independent shoe shops and Russell and Bromley. In each one we must have tried on 4 or 5 pairs and literally none would go on his feet. In Russell and Bromley the girl did actually manage to find a pair that went on but they had so little room in them that she wouldn't sell them to us which I thought was really good of her. They had some fab Geox ones in there as well reduced from £40 to £20 which is what he usually wears but they were navy and he has to have black shoes for school and they didnt have them in a 32 anyway!

We found a pair of Ricosta ones in one of the Independent shops which like I said did fit but were proper school shoes (if that makes sense!) and had laces which would have been a complete nightmare at school cause he can't do shoe laces yet!

So finding some online and trying them on at home is unfortunately my only option at the moment unless I send him to school in slippers which is looking a good option at the moment lol!
