Boy’s Shoes: Kit Them
Out For 2013
The start of a brand new year is a great time to kit the
kids out with new shoes. Pop into a high street shoe specialist and get feet
measured professionally – there’s no obligation to buy. Or use a handy foot measuring
tool online. You’re then free to shop around for the best prices on quality
shoes, in order to make your household budget stretch as far as possible.
Buying shoes at the supermarket is super convenient, and you
can try them on the kids there and then, or buy with the peace of mind that you
can return any unsuitable items with ease. Alternatively, shop from the comfort
of home at ASDA Direct, for the ultimate in convenience.
Be sure to try boy’s
shoes on thoroughly, checking the fit when standing and walking. When you
buy shoes from George at ASDA you have 28 days to return any items that you’re
not completely satisfied with.
What to Buy for Boys?
There are several different types of shoes that all little
boys will need. Shop around for the best deals and you can kit them out with
the whole lot for much less than you might think.
School Shoes
School shoes are an essential, and as they’ll be worn more
than any other shoe it’s vital that they are a comfortable fit. High street
shoe specialists can charge a small fortune for school shoes, which makes
keeping up with growing feet a big expense. At ASDA you can find leather school
shoes from just £15, in a choice of styles.
Choose school shoes with Velcro straps for younger boys, so
that they can easily put them on and off themselves after PE and the like. The George
Leather Loafers are a versatile buy for older boys as they can also be worn
on smart occasions and to parties and proms.
Casual Trainers
Every boy needs a pair of comfortable, casual trainers that
can be worn for playing out or sports. Young children don’t tend to care about
expensive sports brands, so buy unbranded trainers while you can still get away
with it and save your pennies for when they are older and peer pressure comes
into play.
You can pick up simple casual sports trainers from just £5
at George, so it doesn’t matter how muddy they get!
Cool Trainers
While casual trainers are great for getting dirty outdoors,
it’s also a good idea to treat your son to a pair of cool trainers to wear to
parties, on days out and whenever a smarter casual look is required. High tops
are the trainer of the moment, and with pairs for under a tenner at ASDA, you
won’t have to blow the budget to make yourself a very popular parent.
Welly Boots
Unfortunately, rain is unavoidable in the UK, so make sure
that your son is prepared with a sturdy pair of wellington boots. Don’t forget
to pick up a few pairs of thick welly socks for a more comfortable and cosy
fit.
I went out last week and bought the leather strap shoes for Ben from George at Asda. I thought they were an excellent buy for the price. Ben's not quite at that stage where they think about what they are actually doing to their clothes - football is football and they just go for it with whatever shoes they're wearing so I'm glad for the savings. And like you say - the less straps the better - not that they use them anyway!
