The Rhino Sherman 8238 is a smart black leather lace-up from Start-Rite's Rhino senior range. It offers a more grown-up profile than a junior school shoe while keeping the toughness older students need from footwear worn five days a week.
Key Features
- Durable leather upper: Hard-wearing leather built to survive a full school year of daily wear.
- Lace-up fastening: Quick and secure to fasten, and easy to adjust for a comfortable hold across the instep.
- Cushioned footbed: A padded insole helps keep feet comfortable from registration through to the end of the day.
- Hard-wearing outsole: A grippy, moulded outsole delivers steady footing on corridors, stairwells and wet pavements.
- Classic school-approved styling: Smart, plain black finish that meets the vast majority of UK school uniform policies.
Performance Overview
Sherman pairs a clean, formal lace-up upper with the substantial construction Rhino is known for. The leather softens to the foot over the first weeks and polishes back after scuffs, the cushioned footbed reduces fatigue on hard flooring, and the moulded outsole delivers dependable grip in wet weather. Laces allow a properly adjustable fit as the foot changes.
Benefits
- Built for long corridors, busy stairwells and the walk to and from school.
- 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 school year and beyond.
