Kids' Freshfeet™ Scuff Resistant Infant Cross Bar Shoes with Silver Technology

Looked nice but the sole was a bit hard for my daughter and the fit was on the small side for her.

This is my second pair of school shoes from M&S and they are just as good if not better than Clarks shoes in my opinion they have been harder wearing. My only reservation is checking that they fit, the tip of the shoes is very hard so you can't feel your child's toes as they don't give at all. However my daughter says they fit and that they are comfortable so fingers crossed!!

These shoes kept in good condition for the second half of last academic year. They look good and are the most comfortable school shoes she's had - very padded at the bottom. She loves the fact they have a butterfly on them and we love that she looks smart. They still look almost new, although that said she's only allowed to wear plimsols inside school so they have only been used in the playground and on the school runs. Tempted to buy the next size up now incase they run out of stock in the future.

They look gorgeous but when my grand daughter tried them on, she said they hurt. This was probably because they were a very stiff leather,compared to shoes that were softer and more comfortable. But as every parent knows,children aren't patient enough to wear shoes in. Once they've said they hurt, they'll never wear them. So back they must go! Any chance of using a softer leather,more like Footglove?
