Kate Hardcastle is the UK’s leading expert on helping families save money when buying school uniform. As she says ‘buy cheap, buy twice’ – investing in quality shoes and taking good care of them is kinder to your purse (and the planet too!).
Buying into better quality shoes might not be as expensive as you think. Recent research has shown that an average non-leather supermarket pair comes in at around 23p per day of wear vs just 20p per day for a quality leather pair from Start-Rite Shoes.
Shoes are vitally important – not just for children’s foot health, but for their entire physical development too. Foot problems in later life often arise from wearing poorly fitted shoes, so it’s crucial to invest in pairs that fit properly from the very beginning.
