Teenage boys shoes

Post by pheasantchick »

My boys have trainers, astro-turfs, football boots, school shoes, 'converse'-type canvas shoes and basketball boots (dc2). We're going to an18th party soon, plus there's the Christmas parties. What do teenage boys wear for smart shoes? I want to buy them something which is not hugely expensive, and that they will wear again.

My ds wears his converse too. I think they look quite cute with his smart clothes.

Converse or like are a god send in my book. Smart enough but can be sourced quite reasonably; mind you convincing DS1 -size 12 feet -that some of the brighter colours should be left to those with smaller feet is sometimes a bit of a challenge!!

Yup and he's not 15 until the end of the month. Goes with the 16 1/2" collar and 42" chest mind you his waist is only 36" ! He is 5'11" in his stockinged feet - basically a slightly smaller version of DH! :shock: :? :lol:
