Children’s shoes can actually be as expensive as adult’s shoes, especially in certain shops. You may hear people say that it is important that your child has really good quality shoes from the offset and that they are taken to a shoe that will check their size and width. You will often find that children’s shoes from these sorts of shops often start at around £30 a pair. This is a lot to pay especially if you have more than one child and because they have often grown out of them within 6 months or so.
Lots of people simply cannot afford to spend this and so opt for a cheaper pair. If your child is going to be wearing their shoes a lot and doing a lot of walking or sporting activities, then it is vital that they have the correct footwear to ensure they avoid injury. If however they are party shoes and they will only have them on for a couple of hours every once in a while then they may be able to get away with a cheaper pair.
You can also keep your eyes open for good quality second hand shoes on social media sites or on auctions sites as you can often pick up a great bargain this way.
