Both soles split within 3 months

No, I don't recommend this

Whilst I was quite satisfied with these shoes initially, both soles split across their entire width within 3 months. It was my first purchase of 'Airflex' technology after 10 years of buying Autograph shoes. I won't be buying 'Airflex' again. I see from the other reviewers I'm not the first to suffer with wet feet!

I wouldn't call them wide fit

Yes, I recommend this

These arrived this morning with another pair of more expensive shoes which I have written a glowing review for. These aren't expensive shoes yet the quality is there. Nice leather, padding round the ankle etc. I did have a little trouble getting them on. I think they will give after a few wearings, but they are in no way what I would describe as wide fit. I don't usually need this in a shoe, so expected a bit of toe wiggling extra room. It wasn't there. I am hoping they will give a little. They aren't bad shoes for the money.

Yes, I recommend this

I purchased these shoes from M&S as I had previously bought a similar pair some 10 years prior. The old ones have just worn out. I have been living in New Zealand for the past 9 years and to this day have not found anything to compare with the quality of these shoes for the same price. They were delivered in a really quick time. Overall I am very impressed with not only the quality of the product but also the service from M&S.

Avoid Buying These Shoes

No, I don't recommend this

Sorry to say I was another victim of the cross-hair tread design and like other reviewers a split appeared right across the centre groove within 3 months of purchase and absorbed an entire puddle!! Have written to M&S and whilst they have agreed to refund I'm begging them to remove this product until Airflex redesign their sole preferably back to their more durable 'dimple' tread design.

Great work shoes

Yes, I recommend this

These shoes are excellent for every day wear. I walk approx 8 miles a day and they are comfortable straight out of the box. Good value and long lasting.

Quality of material for soles of these shoes?

No, I don't recommend this

I have bought Airflex shoes for several years now and have always liked the comfortable style and design. Unfortunately the quality of the material used to make the soles appears to have been downgraded in the past year (it seems to be quite 'rubbery' now and notably less rigid than previously than previous Airflex products). I bought 2 pairs of Airflex shoes in early June 2013 ( including a pair of Airflex™ Leather Wide Fit Toe Cap Shoes ) and the sole split within 3 months of use, which at a purchase price of £49.50 per pair I did not feel was acceptable value. On the positive sidethe M & S store purchased these shoes from did fully reimburse me for this purchase, even though I hadn't retained my receipt which I was grateful for. I hope the material for the soles can be improved to make the shoes as durable as they used to be (earlier pairs have lasted at least one year without splitting in this way).

Shoes lasted 10 weeks - do not even think it

No, I don't recommend this

Same as everyone else, conformable shoes. Then at about 10 weeks the sole split in 2. What I find most annoying is that M&S are still selling the shoes! Stop selling the shoes, it is tarnishing your brand.

Poor quality - split sole

No, I don't recommend this

Had these shoes for a couple of months and both soles have split. Thought it might have been just my pair, but other reviewers have mentioned this too. Avoid.

Do not buy these shoes

No, I don't recommend this

Great fit, very comfortable but not good for frequent wear. My first pair of these shoes lasted 8 weeks before they split across the sole. Thinking that I had been unlucky, I exchanged them for an identical pair. The second pair lasted 6 weeks before they split across the sole. I am surprised that they are still being sold (and so are the staff at the M&S store where I bought them)!

Broken within two weeks

No, I don't recommend this

I bought these shoes online mistakenly thinking they were good value - they are not. Within two weeks (11 days to be precise), the sole of both shoes split right across the middle. The shoes have a serious design problem.

rather a disappointment

No, I don't recommend this

Unfortunately I have to echo the other reviewer, who mentioned the design fault with the sole. The uppers are scarcely worn, and there is plenty tread remaining, yet the sole is split all the way through after only a very few months of wear. One will quickly end up "down at heel" forking out £50 for these - best avoided.

Not this time!

No, I don't recommend this

I purchased these on line as they were similar to ones my husband already had. They turned out to be much narrower, in spite of being the same fitting, so I returned them and we tried to get some in two different stores only to find that if you did not take size nine, or thereabouts, you were out of luck! The assistant at Finsbury Pavement said she could sell lots more of the larger sizes if she could get them. We ended up buying from Clarks. Sorry M&S, we usually can find what we want in your store!

I bought both wide and extra wide in size 6.5 for my husband and both were the same size, ie not extra wide or wide at all. They were returned. I tried size 7 and met the same problem.

Unfit for purpose

No, I don't recommend this

I recently purchased these shoes which I found to be amazingly light and comfortable. However, I found they had cracked across the sole from inside to outside the foot following the tread which is it's weakest point. In other words there is clearly a design fault with the patterning of the tread. I have since noticed that tread design has been changed on other similar shoes. This may be a coincidence, but in my opinion they should be withdrawn from sale if there are others with the same problem. I'm taking them back to the store for a replacement. Hopefully!?
