Parents love 'comfy' school shoes that 'last longer than others' for £10
Decathlon’s Lightweight Rip-Tab Shoes Soft 140 school shoes have been reduced from £14.99 to £9.99 as part of the retailer’s back-to-school promotion. Parents praise the shoes for being lightweight, comfortable, easy for children to fasten and sufficiently durable, with several saying they repurchase them annually. The shoes are waterproof, available in several colours and sizes, and hold a 4.8-star online rating, although one reviewer noted they are not especially durable. The promotion also includes discounted Adidas backpacks, Adidas trainers and a QUECHUA flask, while Clarks and Marks & Spencer are cited as more expensive alternatives.
