Lidl is offering a pair of leather clogs for £7.99 that bear a resemblance to a £38 style from Marks and Spencer (M&S). The supermarket, known for selling fashion and homeware at low prices, regularly updates its in-store offers.
The current range includes the Esmara Men's Leather Clogs, described as delivering 'extra comfort'. The style arguably resembles M&S's Suede Corkbed Mule, which retails at £38, though there is a notable price difference between the two.
Comparing the Two Styles
For some fashion fans, the M&S shoes may be the preferred option. The suede mules feature a closed-toe design with a single buckle strap and are available in a neutral 'stone' colour. The Lidl mules are similar in style, with a closed-toe design and buckle accent, though the neutral shade is not an exact match for the M&S pair.
Despite this, Lidl's leather shoes could still appeal to customers seeking clogs at a lower price. Shoppers interested in either pair can compare product images and descriptions before making a decision.
Product Details and Reviews
Lidl's description for the Esmara Men's Leather Clogs states: "Leather upper, lining and footbed for extra comfort. Anatomically shaped footbed. Adjustable buckles for a secure fit. Lightweight EVA sole. Sizes: 7.5-11."
The M&S product description reads: "Effortless comfort meets relaxed style in these suede mule slide shoes. The closed-toe flat design features a single buckled strap for a secure fit, while the corkbed sole provides lightweight, flexible support throughout the day. Finished with a practical stain-resistant coating to maintain their pristine appearance with minimal effort."
The M&S mules are available online in three additional colours. While some sizes are currently out of stock for the 'stone' option, the size range typically runs from six to 12. The design has impressed reviewers, earning an average rating of 4.5 out of five.
Lidl's website does not allow customers to share feedback, but M&S customers can leave reviews. One satisfied shopper said: "Brought specifically for holiday but will use for everyday during summer as comfortable and stylish." Another added: "Purchased for a wedding abroad but these have been excellent. Comfortable, with options to dress up or down. Love them." More praise noted: "Excellent quality, finishing, comfortable. I would buy again another colour, as I know this one will be with me for ages because of the quality." A customer agreed: "Really comfortable, look great and good quality. Size runs perfect."
