These simple and stylish girls' school shoes from Start Rite have a riptape fastening for adjustability and a comfortable fit. The elongated heel stiffener to help counteract pronation and the leather lining helps absorb moisture and help keep feet dry. Start-rite believe it's really important to measure a child's feet accurately before buying them every pair of shoes, as ill-fitting shoes can have a serious impact on your child's foot health. To be sure that your child is wearing shoes that fit properly, you can either visit one of the John Lewis stores, where trained staff will measure and fit your child with shoes, or if that's not convenient, use one of our specially developed fitting gauges to help you measure your child's feet at home.
