It's crazy to think about back-to-school shopping already, when the kids haven't even broken up from school yet; however, it can be a pretty pricey affair and it's always best to get ahead of the rush. And this year, Clarks is making it easier on parents.
The iconic British brand, known for its quality, comfort and durability, has dropped the prices of its kids' school shoes to the lowest they’ve been in a decade. With the cost of living still hitting hard, this is a welcome saving for families getting prepped for September.
Talking about the new back-to-school collection, Dawn Porto, Clarks’ Global Head of Product, said: “We’re incredibly excited about this year’s Back to School launch. We’ve listened carefully to our customers—they asked for affordable pricing, trend-led designs, and the same trusted quality. We’ve delivered on every point.”
The new collection, with 70% being new styles, reflects Clarks’ commitment to making quality shoes that actually last, at an affordable and accessible price point.
Whether you’re after something classic or need a pair sturdy enough to survive term after term, we’ve picked the standout styles to shop now while prices are this low, starting from £25.
