Probably the only option, and that’s the rub 11 April 2026

I keep using this site because it often is the only place with the stock I need, but it’s a bit of a faff and could be a lot better. I buy shoes for my child every few months and for everyday wear this place delivers what I actually need, even if the journey there tests your patience. Pricewise it can be all over the place — sometimes you’ll find the manufacturer cheaper, sometimes this site is markedly dearer, so I do a quick cross-check before committing. The site itself is sluggish at times: pages take ages to load, and if you switch tabs you might come back to half-loaded content — annoying when you’re juggling kids and time. Filtering is another pain point. They use their own size labels rather than the maker’s, so ordering several pairs labelled as "site UK 6" for the same kid gave wildly different fits. I’ve ended up returning one pair and keeping another that was labelled the same. Worst bit is the intermittent spinner that pops up the moment you scroll product pages — the page locks up for a second or two and you can’t do anything. If you’re trying several products to find an in-stock size, that delay repeats for each listing and it adds up. Still, I’m glad most orders arrive fine and customer service has been reasonable when I’ve needed it. So, not a glowing recommendation, but for stock and availability it does the job — with patience.
