Godders12 Does what it says on the tin Good fit, accurate description, high quality product.

Dressers4Me Back to school. These trainers are lovely and soft but the best part about them is that they are real leather and can be polished. She hasn’t worn them yet therefor I can’t vouch for they’re comfort. I would recommend these trainers for boys or girls. I’m located in North Lanarkshire, and I’m 76 years old and I purchased them online at line at M&S. I only read a couple of reviews before I ordered. I am not associated with M&S in any way. The quality is very good but she’ll need to wear them first before I can give an honest opinion plus I must add that they seem to be good value for money.

Moosh79 Perfect for school Perfect shoes for school, comfortable and not too stiff - my son really doesn't like shoes without some flexibility. Priced brilliantly, pleased with our purchase 😁

Graham family Really good quality and price. My daughters’ school has very muddy grounds and we were wasting money on many shoes. These are much more practical / easy to wipe clean and a much better price and the girls like wearing them too as they say they are much comfier than the more expensive/ prettier shoes.

Unhappy shoe buyer1000889 Not fit for purpose These shoes lasted for one term before the sole started to detach from the shoe (both shoes) and let water in. My girl is 6 stone and does not walk to school. Obviously a manufacturing fault and terrible throw away shoes - bad for the environment and bad for the pocket. I was so disappointed in marks and spencer. I really expected something better from this brand. I was told in the Torbay shop that school shoes are not meant to last for an academic year and ‘what do you expect.. they’re not even leather’ comments from a sneering shop manager. Finally customer services sent me a refund after many emails…

MrsTris Great comfy shoes Very pleased with these. Good price and son with sensory issues says they are comfy. Inside feels nice and squishy.

VG26 Not great. The shoes don’t stay done up too well. Very tricky for a 4 year old to do independently.

Rony 39 Lovely school shoes My son is really happy with the shoes! Comfy and warm!

Projectmum Fell apart in 2 months Two pairs of these should in September. 2 months on, both boys have holes in the soles where they have completely worn away. I’ve been buying this style for years with no issues. Sort it out M&S!

JMgn Poor quality, waste of money Whilst they have been comfortable for my son they have not lasted very well. Within a few days the Velcro on the bottom strap wore off and doesn’t stick down properly. The Velcro which attached on the tongue to keep it in place has also worn away. And the soles of the shoes are really worn. They’ve only been used since back to school in august until now (beginning nov) and I’ve had to buy replacement shoes. They weren’t expensive shoes but thought the quality would be better than lasting only 3 months.
