The hunt for the perfect pair of boots is an eternal quest, especially for those seeking both comfort and style. And it seems like M&S has struck gold with their Wide Fit Leather Buckle Ruched Ankle Boots, currently priced at £79. These boots have garnered over 900 five-star reviews, with customers singing their praises.
The secret behind their popularity lies in their innovative Insolia Flex® technology, incorporated into the low-wedge heel. This technology promises to keep the ball of your foot in the correct position, ensuring all-day comfort. And it seems most customers agree. One shopper raved, “Very comfortable boots. I don’t usually have wide fit but decided to try them, so I could wear socks when it’s cold… good value; would recommend.” Another reviewer echoed the sentiment, stating, “My better half loves these boots. The wide fit makes them very comfortable to wear. They are well made and stylish.”
Many have also highlighted the boots’ durability, perfect for the colder months. “Lovely boots , look good and feel sturdy enough for the winter and comfortable for long walks,” wrote one satisfied customer. Another simply gushed, “These boots are just perfect! They are extremely comfy – just what I was looking for! I’d recommend them to all my friends.”
However, not everyone has been as impressed. A few reviewers expressed disappointment, noting that while initially comfortable, the leather on the top of the boot hardened after a few wears, causing discomfort and even bleeding. “When I first put these boots on I thought they were so comfortable… “But after wearing them two or three times, the leather is so hard at the top of the boot it has made the top of my ankles bleed… and now it hurts to wear them,” wrote one unhappy shopper.
Despite these mixed reviews, the boots still hold a strong 4.5-star rating, showcasing the positive feedback from the majority of customers. If you’re looking for alternatives, consider the Matron Ella Ankle Boot from Clarks, priced at £90. These boots boast relaxed ruched styling, soft leather uppers, and a 4.7-star rating based on over 500 reviews.
For a more budget-friendly option, Next offers Pavers Casual Biker Boots for £45, available in various colors. One reviewer called them “the most comfortable pair of boots I’ve ever worn,” while another found them to be less comfortable than expected. Ultimately, the best boot for you depends on your individual needs and preferences. However, the overwhelmingly positive feedback for M&S’s Wide Fit Leather Buckle Ruched Ankle Boots makes them a compelling choice for those seeking a comfortable and stylish addition to their winter wardrobe.
