Big boots to fill: Romeo Beckham in LA yesterday

Stiletto aficionado Victoria Beckham once criticised Americans for their love of comfy Ugg boots.

But it seems her son doesn't share her disdain.

Romeo, 5, was spotted kicking around LA in sheepskin shoes while on a shopping trip with Posh.

The middle Beckham boy followed his mother - and her stylist - as she trawled for new outfits in a range of stores, including Abercrombie & Fitch.

Before moving to LA, she said she was unimpressed with the Stateside approach to fashion.

Victoria, who is currently working on a new collection of high-end frocks, said at the time: 'They dress down quite a lot here, don't they? It seems to be in keeping to go to Starbucks in tracksuit bottoms and Ugg boots.’

And while she has stayed true to her over-styled look, her family has certainly embraced all-American living.

As well as fashion, the Beckham boys now also share the US obsession with basketball, and are regulars at LA Lakers games along with their father David.

The former Spice Girl has previously said her family has no plans to return to Britain.

She says: 'We've loved every minute so far. I can't see us going back.'
