2. Clarks school shoe range
Rufus Edge Youth
Fine - clearly a shoe
Scape Civic Youth
Not acceptable - not made of leather or leather look.
Looks more like a trainer than a shoe
Street Spark Youth
Fine - meets our expectations

3. Vans Vans ‘Old Skool’ Not acceptable - not leather/leather look
Excessive branding
Looks more like a trainer than a shoe
Branding
Vans black leather unisex
Acceptable
It is all black and leather
It has a brand label but it is not excessive
Some trainer styling e.g. the rubber strip, but on balance is more of a shoe than a trainer

4. Converse / ‘Cons’ Excessive branding.
The whole thing is clearly more of a trainer than a shoe
We could not find any Cons that would be acceptable.
Cons One Star (also for Jack Purcells)
Not acceptable.
All black and leather.
But, the branding is excessive and rubber toes will not be allowed, as they always make it look more like a trainer than a shoe.
No rubber toes will be allowed

5. Adidas Black leather Gazelles Superstars
Not acceptable due to rubber shell toe and branding. Clearly a trainer.
Black leather Gazelles
Stan Smiths would be acceptable assuming that trousers were worn correctly, i.e. with the hem meeting the footwear. The branding would almost all be hidden then, apart from the writing on the edge of the sole, which would not be easily seen.
Branding
Unacceptable - not all black due to lettering.
Branding is too excessive.
More of a trainer than a shoe
Stan Smith

6. Nike
These are clearly trainers rather than shoes. They are the wrong material too.
Air Force One
Branding
Nike will often be unacceptable as they often have a lot of branding on them
Would not be acceptable. Even though it is black leather, the excessive branding means it is more like a trainer than a shoe
Huarache

7. Dr Marten’s
These would not be acceptable as we are looking for shoes not boots. The yellow stitching is very visible and means they are not all black.
Dr Marten’s shoes - Mono
It might seem to be petty but since Dr. Marten’s make shoes for the same price with black stitching (Mono), we ask that you choose those if this is the brand you want. These fit every part of our expectations.

8. Black socks Black tights - £3.50
These would not be acceptable as we are looking plain black sock/tights. The branding is very visible and they are not all black.
Black socks - unisex £ pack
