      Just 4 weeks, and my DS's Bata school shoe is already wearing out; šŸ˜ž probably from friction when he sits on the floor.

      I prefer Power shoes, much lighter and more durable.

            No leh. I bought the lighter Power shoes for ds before and it lasted just 6 months before the sole was completely worn out. Ds tends to drag his feet and he played soccer with those shoes during recess. Didn't last long before the shoes were koyak. I find the chunky, heavier Bata school shoes more durable. Was able to last more than a year.

              Hi JessChan,

              šŸ™‚

              I remember wearing shorts under my pinafore in an all girls's school because there wasn't any worry of others seeing undies...some of the girls do sit rather unsightly because of that shorts.
              The school discipline mistress always scolded us during assembly that we should sit cross-legged even if we are wearing shorts, and not 'open coffee shop' (still remember those words).

                Ha ha, sounds familiar... I often asked my son whether he kicked soccer ball or rock? I think even if I give him metal shoes, he will still destroy it....

                  I buy my son's school shoes from World of Sports. The soles are lousy šŸ˜ž . I remember during our time, it was only Bata. School has relaxed rules now and there are many brands allowed.

                  Will check out Bata then.

                    Hi Janet,
                    Nice to find you here. Is your son wearing white or black shoes? Mine is wearing black shoes - no need to wash often but often stains the white socks.

                      JessChan,

                      Hello šŸ™‚
                      My son is wearing white shoes n socks.
                      I get those socks which have the blue or black base for him, so that he doesn't dirty the floor when he removes his shoes after school.
