The Start-Rite Luke 2273 is a straightforward, hard-wearing black leather school shoe for boys. A generous rip-tape strap makes it quick to fasten and easy to adjust, and the plain leather upper keeps it firmly on the right side of even the strictest uniform policy.
Key Features
- Durable leather upper: Hard-wearing leather built to survive a full school year of playground wear.
- Rip-tape fastening: Quick and secure to fasten, so children can get themselves ready without a fuss.
- Cushioned footbed: A padded insole helps keep young feet comfortable from registration through to home time.
- Hard-wearing outsole: A grippy, moulded outsole delivers steady footing on corridors, playgrounds and pavements.
- Classic school-approved styling: Smart, plain black finish that meets the vast majority of UK school uniform policies.
Performance Overview
Luke is built for the reality of primary school: running, scuffing, standing in puddles and being kicked off at the door. The leather upper takes a polish and hides everyday marks well, the cushioned footbed absorbs the impact of hard indoor flooring, and the moulded outsole gives confident grip in the wet. It is an honest, no-nonsense shoe at a sensible price.
Benefits
- Built for the school run, PE corridors and everything in between.
- Leather uppers wipe clean in seconds and polish back to a smart finish.
- Cushioned support helps minimise fatigue over a long school day.
- A trusted British school-shoe name backed by generations of fitting expertise.
- Sensible pricing on a shoe designed to last a full term and beyond.
