Kids At Clinks

I bought a pair of school shoes for my daughter aged 6, but she had an accident on a trampoline at the beginning of the 6 weeks holidays and had a pot on her leg for all the 6 weeks. The pot came off after she had been at school for 3 days. I did not put her new shoes on until the pot came off so she wore them in total for 3 days. The soles came off at the front of both shoesand this after only 3 days of wear!!! I have taken them back to the shop today and the assistant refused to accept them back saying it was down to abrasion??? I tried to put my point accross but to no avail. I bought my daughters last school shoes from ASDA and they lasted about 6 months. I dont think the service I have had from CLINKS is acceptible as I think any childs shoes should last a lot more than 3 days bearing in mind that she has not been able to run about and jump about for those 3 days at school as was advised by the hospital to take it easy and so she stayed in at playtimes and lunch break I will definitely be taking this issue further and will NOT EVER BUY SHOES FROM HERE AGAIN!!!

This is a very popular kids shoe shop, so be prepared for a wait! They operate a ticket system where you have to wait for your number to be called, and at peak times of the year (right before schools go back in autumn!) it can be chaos! All other ties it is just low level madness!
Service is great though, and I trust the fitting staff having had some bad experiences elsewhere. I recently went in and a member of staff stopped me buying a full priced pair of shoes for my daughter, and ended up recommending some sale shoes instead — proving that they’re not just after your money!
Range is excellent, stocking everything from Startrite and Clarkes to Hush Puppies and also much trendier designer ranges. Always leave really happy and have never had a problem with shoes bought there.
