      Hi


      I went to their website and saw 3 types of shoes, Raymax , Comfortmax, Promax . What is the difference and which is the recommended.

      My DS has very bad habit of wearing school shoes like slipper since P1. He does not take care of his shoes and all his shoes are "out of shape". His shoes only can least him for 1 Term. Last week just bought him Neckemann, hope this brand can least him longer.

            I bought Bata shoes for my son too.

            I usually brought 2 pairs for him every year.

              me too.
              I have a boy too and his shoes last him less than one term, we used 5 pair last year.

              I also bought him a pair of Neckermann shoes. I like them a lot because they are a lot thinner/narrower then any other pair of shoes I have seen so far, so his foot doesn't move left and right in it. He doesn't have a narrow foot but all the other school shoes are ridiculously wide (beside the canvas type, but no way I'm buying that). Unfortunately, they only had one pair in his size, and I was ready to buy as many as they had. They had a temporary shoe sale at the IMM.

              So if anyone knows where I can buy more Neckermann school shoes please let me know.

                      I've been getting Stride Rite and Saucony for my ds1 for years. They last!
                      His white Nikes were quite lasting too. Not so for Rxxbxx ehich i abandoned after two months.

                        neckermann is $20
                        I found a pair in my DS size at the Childrens Place at the Jurong Point mall yesterday, only one pair again. It's hard to find shoes in his size, it's like every other kid is his size too, and it was all sold long time ago.
