Kickers' 'durable' Back to School shoe range that 'lasts all year'
Kickers have launched a new campaign with 10% off first orders for school returning in September While the school summer holidays still feel like an age away for kids, parents may already be thinking of putting some money aside to buy new clothes and shoes for the new year in September. This can often be a stressful time for families in terms of expenses, so the earlier these are sorted, the better. Kickers, a brand known for quality school shoes, has a great deal on essentials ahead of the new term. The brand has launched its back to school campaign, Back with a Kick, which has 10% off first orders and free delivery for those who spend over £60. Back with a Kick has been described as the brand's strongest collection to date, with styles for every student. The range is said to help kids to stand out and be noticed for all the right reasons, ensuring they feel fearless from the first day back on the playground. Plus, the shoes are durable, functional, and brimming with style. Among the collection, shoppers can choose from a range of shoes including the Kickers Youth Tovni Lacer Leather shoes in Black for £58 - or £52.20 after the 10% discount - which are a blend of sporty and smart. The shoe comes in sizes 3 to 6 for kids and they have a low profile and sleek flat sole. They are also crafted from durable, high-quality matte leather and are finished with flat cotton laces. Another option is the Junior Girls Kick T-Bar Meadow in Patent Leather Black for £52.20 down from £58, a shiny patent leather shoe with flower buckles and a T-Bar style. Alternatively, shoppers can grab the Junior Girls Adlar MJ Scallop Leather Black shoe for the same price, which comes in sizes 1 to 13 and is inspired by the Mary Jane style. This shoe features delicate scallop detailing, is crafted from high quality leather and the style is durable and easy to wear. Kickers Back with a Kick range Product Description If this particular collection isn't for everyone, shoppers could also try the McKenzie Parkin Junior for £35 from JDSports which comes in a range of sizes and is cut from synthetic leather. The shoes also feature a lace fastening and a padded collar for support. Underfoot, they sit on a cushioned midsole and have a grippy rubber outsole. Another option is the M&S Collection Kids' Leather Riptape School Shoes for between £36-£38, which are available in sizes 2 and a half to 9. The Kickers collection, however, has been rated highly on their website as one shopper said: "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 said: "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." Not everyone felt the same way, however, and one customer shared: "Too small. Width was very narrow." "This is our second pair. The first pair lasted two years. Good quality and nice style," said another shopper. However, Kickers' Back with a Kick campaign, with its 10% off and free delivery deals, sounds like it could be a great choice for parents looking to get long-lasting, great quality shoes for Back to School season.

M&S 'best jeans ever' that come in 'perfect length for summer' and 7 colours
Marks and Spencer's High Waisted Cropped Slim Fit Jeans come in a range of colours and are perfect for spring when the weather can be a bit changeable Springtime weather is always a bit hit and miss; one minute the sun is shining and the next it's pouring down with rain. So, it's often tricky to decide what to wear and the perfect number of layers needed to keep you comfortable. With the temperatures up and down lately, now is the prime time for a pair of lighter jeans. And Marks and Spencer's M&S Collection High Waisted Cropped Slim Fit Jeans may be just the ticket. Priced at £32.50, they're available in seven different colours from soft white, green and light pink, and soft green, to the more classic light and dark denim options. Plus, they cater to all heights with short/petite, regular, and long sizes on offer and sizes 6 to 22. Made from 98% cotton and 2% elastane they will likely be soft and have some give. While the jeans boast a slim fit along the leg, they steer clear of super-skinny-jean territory and are cropped neatly above the ankle. Paired with a chic belt, a tucked-in white shirt, they can be dressed up with some heels for an evening out, reports Devon Live. For those who favour a roomier cut, Nobody's Child's Mid Wash Denim Cropped Wide Leg Jeans are on sale for £47.20 and have the same cropped style but with a wider leg, for added comfort. Additionally Next's Mid Blue Wide Crop Lift Slim And Shape Jeans are a great alternative if you want something you can easily lounge around the house in but also look chic and cool. Costing £52, the trousers come in mid blue and white and lengths regular and petite. Although if the slim fit trousers are more your bag, you're not alone as the jeans have received over 80 glowing reviews and an impressive 4.3 star rating. One happy customer said: "Really pleased with these. Superb fit and perfect length for summer. Have bought them in another colour too." Another hailed: "Love these jeans have had them before. They are very comfortable and I purchased the green ones which a nice shade of green. Nice for Spring and summer. A good fit not too tight." A third praised them as a 'wardrobe staple' and said: "Excellent value, good fabric and flattering fit. At 5ft 3ins I buy size 10 regular and length is just on my ankle, which is perfect for me." However, some customers noted some sizing issues. One M&S fan mentioned: "Lovely fit without being bulky around the tummy area and not too wide on the leg. Colour is slightly off white, but that's not an issue for me. They do come in quite short, and I needed the longer length, which never happens usually. Nice thick denim, pockets, and underwear are not visible." Echoing this, someone else added: "I bought two pairs of these in the cream and pink. The pink were lovely - fitted well and were comfortable however the cream were really narrow at the bottom of the legs and didn't fit nearly as nicely so have returned these." Although for the most part, the jeans are a hit with shoppers, with one particular customer praising them as the 'best jeans ever '. They said: "I bought these jeans last year (well 8 actually) in the 10 regular. I have absolutely lived in them in both medium indigo and black. However I've been waiting and hoping for the long and last week they arrived. They're perfect- slightly longer but still cut beautifully and a high-ish waist."
