Do you measure boys' feet in store?
Yes, all Cordners stores offer free children's foot measuring. We recommend a fresh measurement every 8-10 weeks for growing feet.
Which brands are best for active boys?
Geox, Pablosky, Garvalin, Kickers and Crocs are our most popular hard-wearing brands. All have reinforced toes and machine-washable options.
Do you stock waterproof school shoes for boys?
Yes, Geox, Clarks and Start-Rite all offer waterproof school shoes. Filter by Waterproof under the fit/feature options.
What's the difference between formal and casual shoes?
Formal shoes typically use polished leather, oxford or derby cuts, and thinner soles. Casual shoes use softer leathers, slip-on or lace styles, and thicker cushioned soles.
Can these shoes be resoled?
Goodyear-welted shoes (look in our Loake, Clarks Originals and Lloyd & Pryce ranges) can be resoled by a good cobbler. Bonded-sole shoes usually cannot.
Are these shoes comfortable straight out of the box?
Most modern shoes from brands like Skechers, Rieker, Gabor and Clarks are designed for immediate comfort. Traditional leather shoes from Loake or Dubarry will need a few wears to soften.
