M&S to start selling Clarks school shoes online and in 8 stores this week - full list

M&S is to start selling Clarks school shoes online and in eight of its stores from this week as part of a new partnership deal.

It means parents will be able to purchase Clarks shoes direct from the posh supermarket at the same time as their food shop.

M&S told The Mirror that the shoes are already being sold in eight stores from today, with the range to go live on its website later this week.

The shoes will be sold under the M&S Kids range and joins other brands that Marks already stocks, including Ben Sherman, Original Penguin, Elle Junior, Russell Athletic and Havaianas.

Other retailers - such as Hype, Jack & Jones Junior, White Stuff, Little Joule, and Somebody’s Child - will also launch on M&S.com this summer as part of the "Brands at M&S" partnerships.

The new deal with Clarks comes as M&S plans to launch a sustainable "Back to School" campaign.

But the supermarket faces stiff competition from budget grocers, including the likes of Aldi which claims to have the "cheapest" school uniform at £4.50.

M&S kidswear, womenswear and beauty, director, Jill Stanton said: “For millions, an M&S uniform with Clarks shoes is a rite of passage – so we’re making it even easier for parents by offering the option to purchase these together on M&S.com, as well as in eight of our destination stores.

“Our kidswear mission is to remain the ‘go to’ for Back to School whilst growing our daywear offer and that’s all about being more fun for everyday – more comfortable, more colourful, more casual.

“It’s a really exciting time for M&S Kids and we’re looking forward to hearing our customers’ feedback, from both parents and kids.”
