How long does your kids' school shoes last?

[kiasu mummy]

Raymax seems to get good feedback from parents whom had bought their school shoes and I also want to get for ds who’s entering P1 next year.


Q1: usually, how many pair of shoes do you get for your kid?

Q2: does Raymax goes to every school; say, during P1 Orientation day?

I got Raymax for my kids. I got 2 pairs for each child. They wore Raymax everyday but now older one wants Converse he says it is cool. So may change to that for him as he has been bugging me a long time.

i got a pair of adidas shoes for ds but after a term or two, he complained that his feet were hot (no ventilation in the shoes).


got him a pair from bata and so far okay.

only thing i dont like about shoes here is there is no proper arch support especially for those with flat feet. so need to buy insoles (meant for flat feet).

LOLmum, around how old can we check if the kid has flat foot?

my boy is 2.5yrs old, it is hard to see if he is flat footed like his daddy.

hi wishababy,


from what i know, all babies’ feet look flat because an arch hasn’t formed yet. arches should form by the time your child is 2 or 3 years old.

when ds was about 3 or 4 yrs old, i notice his walk was a bit funny. feet kinda turned in when walking but he never complain about pain which is a good sign.

however when i saw the underside of his shoes (the inner side) was more worn out then the outerside, i knew something was not right. after seeking opinion from a dr, ds was given a pair of insoles. now he walks better wearing them and the worn out part of the shoes is no longer an issue.

i only buy shoes with good arch support for my kids. school shoes is however a problem.

was told by dr that kids who went round not wearing shoes most of the time were found to have stronger feet, with better flexibility and mobility, fewer deformities like flat feet or toes that curve inwards, and less complaints
