Ugg style boots

Mesj20

Hi where would be the best place to buy some cheap black ugg style boots. My daughter 12 wants a new pair I bought her last ones off a market store but the store holder doesn't sell them anymore

There's a specific 'I wanna buy it or do it' board, maybe better to post on there.

But I have to say - in agreement with most if the posters on your 'cheap plimsolls' thread - you really aren't doing your children's feet any favours.

My children's feet are healthy ?

If they continue wearing cheap footwear, they won't be healthy for much longer.

But HeyHo! That's entirely up to you.

That's not very nice Pollycat, as long as the shoes fit ok, surely it doesn't matter what they cost? (I haven't seen the other thread)

My family buy Clarks for their kids, and tbh I don't know how they manage it, when they're about £30+ per pair and they grow out of them so quickly.

Look up "hammer toes" - and the treatment needed - and you will find out what buying ill-fitting shoes can do to a child's feet. Having toes broken and metal pins inserted, then removed, is a heavy price to pay.

In h and m they are selling loads of ugg style boots off for £5-£7 each size depending. They seem okay quality.

I think we're talking about problems more than a little worse - and longer term- than blisters.

Hammer toes, when not due to arthritis or genetics, are caused by shoes that are too tight, high or pointed. Ugg style boots are unlikely to cause this problem.
However, the cheaper ones tend to collapse at the heel causing a dragging of the feet when walking.
Shoes don't need to be expensive, but should fit correctly.
Genuine Uggs are on eBay, and Amazon have some real and cheaper versions in their clearance.
