Boat shoes are the best alternative to sandals for summer, and Marks and Spencer has dropped the perfect £50 suede pair that rival Miu Miu ones loved by Rochelle Humes
Although summer is obviously the perfect time to dust off your sandals and bare your toes in the sunshine, sometimes the occasion calls for something a little bit different. And this season, it’s all about the boat shoes.
They’re dressier than a pair of trainers, but just as comfortable and breezy as a pair of sandals, which is why it’s no surprise that celebs like Rochelle Humes have been showing off how they’re styling them this summer. Rochelle was spotted in a pair of £730 Miu Miu Faded Suede Loafers on Instagram, but we managed to find a fantastic affordable option, with Marks & Spencer’s Suede Flat Boat Shoes retailing at £49.50.

The M&S pair feature similar design details to Rochelle’s luxury pair, with a rounded toe and a lace up front, not to mention the lacing detail down the sides too which gives them that classic boat shoe look. Despite their affordable price, the M&S shoes are also made from 100% real leather, with a soft, smooth suede finish.
This means they’re lightweight to wear and will flex with your feet as they move, keeping them comfortable all day. Real leather is also durable and long lasting, so the Suede Flat Boat Shoes should last you a lifetime.
A flat sole keeps them casual and easy to wear, and you could just as easily style them for the office with a midi dress and blazer as you could for running errands in a pair of linen shorts and a T-shirt. Rochelle opted to style hers with some on-trend denim bermuda shorts and an oversized rugby top, leaning into the casual preppy vibe.
Although M&S’ pair come in a light taupe colour, we did spot some other colour options over at Dune, with its Gala Suede Boat Shoes , which are currently on sale down from £99 to £49. They come in both tan and white suede, as well as a dark brown smooth leather finish, giving you plenty of options to suit your style.
We also found a great pair at Next, with the £46 Tan Brown Forever Comfort Leather Round Toe Boat Shoes available in both standard and extra wide fits. You can also pick them up in either tan or black suede, with the style also closely resembling Rochelle’s Miu Miu pair.
However the Marks and Spencer Suede Flat Boat Shoes have been getting rave reviews from shoppers, with one saying: “Super comfortable and easy to throw on on a summer’s day or dress up for work.”
Another agreed: “Really comfortable and stylish loafers. I’m really pleased I bought them. Go great with my ankle grazers.”
Whilst a third wrote: “Just love these shoes, it’s like wearing slippers! So comfortable! Would definitely recommend.”
In fact the Suede Flat Boat Shoes have received exclusively five star reviews, meaning they’re definitely a big hit. You can pick up your pair for £49.50 now.
