Some people really love to give a warm welcome
Helps weed out the wusses when they first join.
Should get rid of the Introduction sub forum and make them post in GD first of all
. If they can survive the onslaught they're ready for the internet.
I'm gonna guess the OP is the actual son and is trying to figure out if he can get away with wearing pumps or whatever - and he's simply subbed 10 years off his year of birth
If he's anything like my nephew was he will have his shoes wrecked within weeks from kicking rocks and footballs and whatever kids seem to do. With that said I'd just get some plain black but reasonable quality shoes that can handle a kicking.

Can't believe the OP has posted this. Shoes are shoes, plimsolls are plimsolls. The former are for wearing as part of school uniform, the latter for partaking in organised physical activity.
That picture of those plimsoles sent shivers up my spine. I remember mum buying me a white pair - the fit was horrible and I couldn't run properly in them. I flat out refused to wear them. Dad agreed and bought me a pair of lace up Hi-Tec trainers and I was forever greatful.
School shoes = Clarks surely?
Why a father is asking this on any forum beggars belief. Is this why kids run amok these days?

I have small feet and one day I bought a pair of school kid trainers - black lace up and they were the worst trainer I have ever worn - in fact they were dangerous in wet - soles were crap and I kept slipping.
Still good way of keeping these vandals off street if they break their legs.

Is it just me or are people in this thread being particularly unpleasant, even for GD
OP is just trolling. DOB: 1995
Troll on gd and you get trolled back.
Even if it was a serious thread, i dont think anyone is being particularly harsh, plimsolls for school because his mate has them?
Really?
Like, do you even parent brah?
I thought they were and always daps. Get your daps out for PE.
I notice your Location, I was a kid in and around Bristol/Somerset area, so it must be the regional name down there

Daps for me too (Gloucs)
Not for me in London or Newcastle. Probably regional!
