Black School Shoes & White School Shoes in Singapore
Most local schools in Singapore require all white school shoes and most international schools require black leather school shoes. So if your child needs cool new kicks, whatever the colour, the shops below are perfect for you. PS: If your little one needs rain boots for stomping in muddy puddles at preschool like George and Peppa, the usual suspects like Amazon.sg and Lazada should have a decent selection.

This old school shopping centre in Singapore has everything sports – and shoe-related under the sun. You won’t find black leather school shoes here though, just white school shoes and trainers. You can always go for Classic Keds or Chuck Taylor All-Stars, while style hawkers might prefer Adidas Stan Smiths or Tretorns. This is a good place to pick up sports shoes to go along with PE uniforms at international schools.

Vans: White & black school shoes and slip-ons


Vans is one of the stalwarts in school shoe options here in Singapore, and while they’re a little higher priced than most, we can vouch for its quality. Our kids will be wearing them almost every weekday of the year, after all! The Old Skool, Slip-on and Authentic styles are our recommendations for school shoes – plus they each come in white or black too!

Most schools are very specific about the type of school shoes needed. However if the rules are more relaxed and you are after some trainers or affordable black school shoes (non-leather) or white school shoes then there is a small selection of wallet-friendly shoes that might fit the bill at Decathlon. Definitely a good spot to pick up trainers for PE uniforms!
Superga: White school shoes


Superga’s velcro sneakers are great for kids to wear as school shoes! They’re lightweight, highly breathable thanks to the pure cotton upper and have decent friction. No black school shoes here though, so best for kids whose schools require white school shoes.
