Doc Martens school shoes that are 'still new' after 'intensive use' back for 2025
The shoes are £70 and come in sizes ten to three, in black patent leather. This season, the versatile 8065 Mary Jane shoe is retooled in black-on-black monochrome and will be the envy of the playground.
If you something even cuter, Schuh is selling the Dr Martens Maccy II girls junior in black for £70, they come with a bow detail and are also patent leather.
The Mary Janes are a two-buckle shoe that is built from a high-shine and easy-to-clean glossy patent leather and secured with hook and loop straps.
They're highlighted with a brogue design across the toe and feature an internal padded collar for added comfort.
Finished with an extra flexible sole with black stitching.
You can clean the shoes with a damp cloth, and they are fitted with easy-on and off straps.
If Docs don't suit, another alternative are the Kickers kids' patent school shoes for £70 from Marks and Spencer.
Shoppers love these Mary Jane shoes, one said: "My 9 year old loves these as her school shoes - comfy and cool."
Another added: "Last year I bought for my grandaughter the Maccy II J Black Patent Mary Jane shoes. She found them very comfy and cool, and they seem still new despite the intensive use they have undergone. This year we chose to purchase the new two buckles shape with glossy finish, looking perfect for the rainy days."
And: "These are so gorgeous. My daughter looks so lovely in them and it feels special sending her off to reception in her DM's."
One person was disappointed the buckle was not a real buckle, they said: "These are lovely shoes. So sturdy. I just wish the buckle was a real buckle and not Velcro."
A third option is the Dr. Martens black polley II bow y patent lamper shoes for £90 from Next.

Parents praise Kickers 'comfy from the off' school shoe range lasting kids 'years'
Kickers has launched its Back to School campaign providing shoppers with a great opportunity to save on footwear While the school summer holidays are still going strong, parents might be considering setting aside some funds to purchase clothes and shoes for the new academic year in September. This can often be a financially stressful period for families, so the sooner these purchases are sorted, the better. Kickers, a brand renowned for its quality school shoes, is offering a fantastic deal on essentials ahead of the new term. The brand has kicked off its back-to-school campaign, Back with a Kick, which offers a 10% discount on first orders and free delivery for those who spend over £60. Haircare brand ghd launch four new tools that make curls 'last all day' Debenhams slashes £55 off 'exceptional' 2-in-1 fan shoppers call 'best purchase' Back with a Kick is being hailed as the brand's most impressive collection yet, boasting styles to suit every pupil. The range is designed to help children stand out for all the right reasons, ensuring they feel confident from their first day back in the playground. Within the collection, customers can select from a variety of shoes including the Kickers Youth Tovni Lacer Leather shoes in Black, priced at £58 - or £52.20 after the 10% discount - which offer a blend of sporty and smart. Available in sizes 3 to 6 for children, these shoes feature a low profile and sleek flat sole, reports the Mirror. Moreover, the shoes are durable, practical, and overflowing with style. They're also crafted from durable, high-quality matte leather and finished with flat cotton laces. Another choice is the Junior Girls Kick T-Bar Meadow in Patent Leather Black for £52.20 reduced from £58, a glossy patent leather shoe featuring floral buckles and a T-Bar design. Alternatively, customers can purchase the Junior Girls Adlar MJ Scallop Leather Black shoe for the same price, which is available in sizes 1 to 13 and draws inspiration from the Mary Jane style. This shoe boasts delicate scalloped detailing, is made from premium leather and the design is hard-wearing and comfortable to wear. If this specific range doesn't appeal to everyone, customers could also consider the McKenzie Parkin Junior for £35 from JDSports which is available in various sizes and is made from synthetic leather. The footwear also includes lace fastenings and a padded collar for comfort. Beneath, they rest on a cushioned midsole and feature a grippy rubber sole. An alternative choice is the M&S Collection Kids' Leather Riptape School Shoes for between £36-£38, which are offered in sizes 2 and a half to 9. The Kickers range, nevertheless, has received excellent reviews on their website as one customer commented: "I have bought 3 pairs of Tovni shoes for my granddaughters and they've loved them. They've been hard wearing and lasted the school tough test well." Another remarked: "We always buy Kickers for both my boys for school. Long lasting, comfy from the off and just a great all rounder shoe for boys with a cool but smart trainer style look. Top notch, would recommend." However, not all customers were satisfied, with one sharing: "Too small. Width was very narrow." "This is our second pair. The first pair lasted two years. Good quality and nice style," praised another shopper. Nonetheless, the Kickers' Back with a Kick campaign, offering 10% off and free delivery, seems like an excellent option for parents seeking durable, high-quality shoes for the Back to School season.
