Kickers

How Kickers made its mark

Since 1970, Kickers has built a reputation for distinctive footwear with real personality. Founded in France, the brand quickly stood out for doing things a little differently, creating styles for the blue-jean generation with details inspired by denim, sturdy soles, soft nubuck and signature finishes. Over the years, Kickers has become a familiar name in the UK, known for a look that still feels instantly recognisable today. That balance of practicality, comfort and self-expression is a big part of why the brand continues to appeal to new generations, in the classroom and beyond.

Easy to wear, easy to love

There is something reassuringly easy about Kickers. They’re the kind of shoes people come back to because they are stylish without feeling overdone, comfortable for everyday wear and smart enough for all sorts of occasions. From casual trainers to classic boots, the brand brings together comfort, durability, practicality and self-expression, all with a distinctive heritage feel that continues to resonate with new generations. Kickers offers styles for the whole family, from women’s and men’s options for work and weekends to school shoes for growing feet and infant shoes designed to support little ones. Whether you’re buying a first pair, replacing outgrown shoes or simply looking for a reliable go-to, the brand makes it easy to find the right fit.

Signature Kickers school shoes

Made to handle everyday life

For many people, Kickers school shoes are the first thing that comes to mind. They’re a long-time favourite because they feel comfortable, look smart for school and are made to handle busy days, with practical details to match.

• Easy fastenings for busy mornings

• Secure fits for all-day wear

• All-black styles that work well with uniform

With options for different ages, it’s easy to find the right pair of Kickers shoes for every stage of school life.

Mary Jane and T-bar styles for girls

For girls, Mary Jane and T-bar shoes are a timeless school-shoe favourite from Kickers. Both have a classic shape that works well with school uniform, while still offering the sturdiness kids need. Ballet-flat-inspired Mary Jane shoes keep things simple with a single signature strap across the front, while T-bar styles bring a slightly more structured look. Leather pairs are a practical choice for their durability, while buckle fastenings and black patent finishes give them a smart, slightly dressier touch.

Trainers and low shoes for boys

For boys, Kickers includes plenty of everyday styles with a neat, school-friendly look. Black shoes are a dependable choice, with patent styles for a slightly more polished finish, while sportier trainers offer a more relaxed feel. Hook-and-loop fastenings are especially practical for busy mornings and independent dressers, while lace-up styles give a more classic finish.

Backpacks to complete the look

While Kickers may be best known for footwear, the brand offers more than just shoes. Backpacks and accessories bring the same recognisable style, with practical details such as padded straps, useful pockets, roomy compartments and durable fabric. A Kickers backpack is a handy choice for school, commuting or adventures beyond, and an easy addition for kids who already love the brand.
