Used kids shoes in Allahabad typically sell for ₹100 to ₹500 (about $1 to $5). Children outgrow shoes in months, so many are barely worn, and the sole is what tells a buyer how much life is left.
Selling kids shoes in Allahabad
Allahabad is a historic city at the confluence of the rivers, with a major university and an enormous population of students preparing for competitive examinations. Books and study furniture dominate the second-hand market.
The older parts of the city are congested and the university area is concentrated, which makes collecting several items in one trip practical. Bicycle and two-wheeler handovers are the norm.
Study materials sold at the end of a preparation cycle are excellent value, but check editions and for missing pages. Syllabuses change and an outdated edition is worth much less.
Allahabad, in Uttar Pradesh, has around 1.1 million people, which means a deep enough buyer pool that most things sell without having to travel far to hand them over. Lucknow, Kanpur and Ghaziabad are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Allahabad
Demand climbs ahead of the festival season and again in the run-up to wedding season, when clothing, jewellery and home items all move faster.

What kids shoes are worth
What lifts the price
- Recognised brands with proper fitting construction
- School shoes and wellies in common sizes
What pulls it down
- Odour, which is difficult to remove
- Very small sizes worn only briefly but heavily
Working out what yours is worth
- Photograph the soles as well as the uppers
- Check the insole for a moulded impression
Getting it ready
- Look at the sole wear pattern and the inside of the heel. A shoe worn heavily on one edge has moulded to a specific gait.
- Clean them thoroughly, including the insoles, and remove or replace anything soiled.
Photograph
- The pair side on, clean, standing
- The size marking, plus any scuff, split or worn toe
Put in the description
- Size as marked, width fitting if given, and internal length in centimetres
- Sole and heel wear pattern, and the state of the insole
Brand, size and type: “Clarks School Shoes, Size 11F, Black Leather”. The width fitting is a genuine search for parents whose child has been measured, and it is almost never included in listings. Say leather or synthetic, and whether they are school shoes or casual.
Listing is free and there is no selling fee, so the whole amount the buyer pays stays with you. You and the buyer agree the handover between yourselves.
