Dr. Kong Singapore Black Friday Supportive School Shoes for Growing, Healthy Feet
Share
Black Friday is here and for parents, it’s more than just a sale.
With the school holidays starting and the new academic year approaching, November becomes the smartest time to refresh your child’s footwear, update school essentials, and stretch your budget with meaningful purchases.
Whether your little one has outgrown their school shoes, needs a more supportive pair for holiday activities, or you want to upgrade their backpack before the new term, this guide shows you how to shop wisely while giving your child the comfort and support they need.

Why Black Friday Matters for Growing Feet
Kids’ feet grow rapidly sometimes one full shoe size every 4–6 months. Combine this with lots of walking, running, and playing during the school holidays, and supportive footwear becomes more important than ever.
Poor or worn-out shoes can lead to:
- Flatfoot discomfort
- Heel and arch pain
- Balance issues
- Over-pronation
- Faster wear and tear
Black Friday gives you the opportunity to invest in healthier choices at better prices, without compromising on quality.

👟 School Shoes: Support for Daily Growth
School shoes are one of the most important purchases for children, simply because they wear them every single day, often for long hours. A supportive pair not only provides comfort but also helps protect their feet during crucial development years.
When choosing school shoes during Black Friday, look for:
✔ Durable, High-Quality Materials
Kids are active, and school shoes need to withstand daily wear and tear without losing shape or support.

✔ Firm Heel Counter
A strong heel structure keeps the foot stable and properly aligned during walking, standing, and running between classes.

✔ Non-Slip Outsoles
Ensures better grip on various surfaces especially important in school environments.

✔ Breathable Design
Helps reduce sweat and discomfort, keeping feet fresh even on long school days.

✔ Correct Fit & Growth Space
A thumb’s width of space at the front allows for natural foot growth without causing discomfort.
Why Buy School Shoes During Black Friday?
- Lower prices for high-quality options
- A chance to buy one pair for now and one pair a half-size bigger for later in the year
- Perfect timing to prepare ahead for the new school term
- Better stock availability before the year-end rush
A good pair of school shoes is an investment in healthy foot development and Black Friday is the smartest time to upgrade your child’s everyday essentials.
Make Smart Holiday Choices
Black Friday is the perfect opportunity for parents to invest in essentials that genuinely support their child’s posture, comfort, and long-term foot health. By choosing ergonomic footwear and school gear now, you’re giving your child a stronger, healthier start to the year ahead.
