Treads School Shoes for Girls & Boys

[Ad-gifted] Happy New Year again everyone and I am sure the kids are all ready to head back to school after the long Christmas and New Year Holidays.  To celebrate going back to school, we are featuring Treads School Shoes for girls and boys in our post today.

If you are a parent who has an active child in school or if you walk to school a lot, then one of the challenges you would face is scruffy shoes or shoes that get worn off quickly.  As a parent myself, I am always looking at trying to find good quality shoes for my kids.

We have received two pairs of Treads shoes to feature on our blog, I can immediately tell just by feeling and looking at the shoes that quality and style is something the team at Treads Shoes take seriously. Made with permair leather, these shoes are lightweight, sturdy and flexible.  In this post, we are featuring the Montana Brogue Girls and the Madrid Boys shoe.

Keep on reading to find out more about the brand, the shoes as well as how you can win yourself a pair of Treads Shoes (of your choice) for your child.

Treads School Shoes for Girls & Boys - Giveaway & Review

My 9-year-old daughter is wearing the Montana – Brogue Girls School Shoes (UK Size 2 1/2 to 3).  These shoes are classy and yet offer a design perfect for middle or high school kids who want to look older wearing lace-up styled school shoes.

The timeless Brogue design has been designed for comfort, style and most importantly durability.  My daughter said the shoes were comfy to wear and the padded heel collar made her look slightly taller whilst offering a cushioned foam footbed for comfort.

Made with permair leather, the shoes felt sturdy and firm to the touch but still adaptable and flexible as she walked and ran easily wearing them.

My almost 7-year-old is wearing the Madrid Boys Leather School Shoes (UK size 12 1/2 to 13 ).  The shoes are practical and perfect for active boys like my son who love to run about and play football during break time.

Also made with permair leather, the shoes felt equally sturdy yet comfy for him.  He said that the shoes felt more padded than his current pair, offering protection for his toes and additional soft padded ankle for comfort and support.  It was easy for him to get his shoes on-off thanks to the touch fastens rip tape.

Again, I found his shoes were well suited, purposeful and lightweight at the same time.  I loved the little detailed stitching on his shoes which made it unique and easily identifiable compared to other popular shoe brands.

How much do the Treads School Shoes cost and how can I buy them?

The Montana Girls’s shoes costs £35-£45 and you can purchase it here while the Madrid Boy’s Shoes costs £45 and you can purchase it here.

Things to note:

  • Strobel construction – Treads are constructed using a “strobel” technique where the upper is placed into a mould and the sole is then injected around it creating one unit without the need for any gluing. This not only creates a really strong bond but offers additional flexibility, perfect for active kids.
  • 12 Month Indestructible Guarantee – Their 12-month indestructible guarantee is an expression of our confidence in the material and workmanship of our shoes. If the shoe you buy falls short of these high standards, you may return it to them within 12 months from the day of purchase.
  • Dual Fit Technology – Simply try the shoe on as it comes out of the box. If the fit is comfortable and to your liking you’re good to go. If however, you feel you could do with a bit more room just remove the orange EVA foot bed to convert to the wider fit option. Removing the foot bed also gives more depth, making dual fit footwear ideal should you wish to use orthotics.
  • Free UK Delivery -Orders sent via their Standard Delivery Service should usually arrive within 3-4 Days of your order being placed.
  • 30 Day Satisfaction Guarantee – They offer a 30-day satisfaction guarantee on their entire range.

About Treads 

Treads shoes have been developed as a result of a single dad’s frustration when it came to buying school shoes for his son. A frustrating cycle of how often he had to replace the shoes, sometimes in a matter of weeks. Regularly parting with £50 plus each time and soon realising the shoes were not fit for purpose; even the shoes previous generations had grown up with and learned to trust.  He knew there had to be a better solution and as someone who works in the shoe industry, set about creating the ultimate school shoe that would stand up to the rigours of any schoolyard. Some 2 years later, and after extensive research and development, Treads Shoes was born.

In Italy there is no obligation or need to buy shoes for children for school, but I think it would be ideal instead. To give uniformity and not create jealousies, as well as comfort. I really like those of your girl!

I did not know that Cristina, I guess you are right, in a way kids can be creative but then the rich ones will start wearing big brand names. Having shoes like these in a way does show some uniformity
