He will need to wear smart shoes for job interviews, jobs etc so why not get him started wearing them for school.

What would you class as smart shoes?

You misunderstand:


I made the comment to show that the parent was not unable to afford 'proper' shoes, as she stated that he already had some trainers.

There good quality trainers Aswell so if it's raining or really wet he would wear them instead of his plimsoles

Shopping for plimsolls is a funny form of trolling.

We buy our kids plimsolls from Shoe Zone too (inside the local Asda). But that's what the school wants for PE. However these are the traditional plimsolls that most people will be thinking of.

Are you talking about things like these?

I used this tool that's on the internet called 'Google'. It's pretty good for finding products you want to buy.

Sounds like you want to look for 'canvas pumps' rather than plimsolls.

Would they mind something like this? http://www.marksandspencer.com/kid-s-lace-up-trainer/p/p22457197?image=SD_04_T72_1284L_Y0_X_EC_0&color=BLACK&prevPage=plp&pdpredirect
