Best School Shoes In 2022

For this post I have put together our top picks and buying guides for the best school shoes currently available. For more top picks and buying guides, see my back to school check list.

Girls School Shoes

Start-rite Girls Angry Angels Matilda Brogues

My Top Pick:

My favourites are the Start-rite Girls Angry Angels Matilda Brogues as they are super stylish, classic and made of soft leather which is comfortable for kids feet. Both my daughters have worn these exact school shoes at one time or another! Make sure your child can do their own shoelaces if you decide on these ones!

Boys School Shoes

Kickers Kick Lo Vel Kid's School Shoes

My Top Pick:

My favourites are the Kickers Kick Lo Vel Kid's School Shoes as they are super stylish, designed to promote healthy feet and ideal for a smart but practical boys school shoe. I also like the velcro fastening for easy dressing.
