Canvas Espadrilles

For my husbands visit into hospital they are just fine

Bought the espadrilles in the sale, good buy so bought 2 pairs

My husband has 3 pairs of the expatriates and finds them really comfortable.He hopes more colours might soon be available wears them every day.

Compare to previous M and S espadrilles, the design on this shoe with the band across the top of the foot makes them difficult to put on and uncomfortable to wear, with the elasticated piece being pointless. Returning to store. Disappointed

I have purchased espadrilles from Marks and Spencer’s previously and they were very comfortable. This year the design has changed and they are elasticated on one side only and that make them tight on my instep.

Happy with the shoes the fit etc was good and quick delivery

I read all the reviews on these before purchasing. Many said they were coming up small so I ordered one size up. That was good advise but they are still very tight over the top of my foot...I am hoping they will stretch a little.

These espadrilles were an instore impulse purchase and I was very pleased, that is until I got home and tried to put them on. Putting them on was a complete nightmare as the fit is very tight despite my feet being a half size and the espadrilles were therefore larger. I then checked the reviews and found that almost every reviewer had the same problem. Has I seen the reviews before the purchase I wouldn't have even bothered and would have saved myself a morning returning to the store to get a refund. Sadly the designers have failed very badly with this product however one lesson I have learned is that I should have tried them on instore.

Husband and sons have worn and been more than happy with M&S espadrilles for several years. Their go to summerwear/slippers. Not any more.. The design and quality has altered. The interior sole used to be a padded comfortable cotton one, now is cork. But more importantly there used to be elastic inserts on both sides allowing easy and comfortable fit. Now only one smaller elastic insert which makes sliding foot in almost impossible. I must assume a change of manufacturer and lower cost implications. Profit before an almost perfect product. Still trying to find an alternative.

The product is fine, as shown, unfortunately the sizing is completely different to the pair I have previously owned and was attempting to replace. The old pair of size 8 fitted like a glove, I cannot even get my foot into this new pair of size 8. Extremely disapointed, they will be going back!
