Just in time for World Book Day, Clarks has just released a collection of kids’ footwear inspired by iconic Roald Dahl books, from Matilda to Charlie And The Chocolate Factory
Celebrated on the 7th of March, World Book Day encourages children and adults to dress up as their favourite fictional characters. From Harry Potter to a Charles Dickens classic, you can expect to see a wide range of fancy dress costumes from the world of literature.
Whether your child doesn’t fancy going the whole way with a costume this year or if they want to sport a piece of footwear with the design of their favourite book all year round, look no further than Clarks’ recent collection, which has been designed with some of Roald Dahl’s most iconic characters and stories in mind.
This new footwear line, launched just in time for World Book Day, offers options for all kids and allows children to adorn shoes inspired by hit titles, from James And The Giant Peach to Matilda.

It’s worth noting that some of the designs are no longer in stock, though Clarks has noted they are coming to virtual shelves.
The new line of children’s footwear includes designs based on Matilda, James And The Giant Peach, Charlie And The Chocolate Factory, and The Enormous Crocodile. With styles varying from sandal roamers to sneakers, these shoes feature bright colours and styles that spruce up any outfit on World Book Day and beyond.
This line includes styles from the classic high-top to leather roamers to summer sandals. Made from water-resistant materials to protect the shoes through your children’s own adventures, the shoes are machine-washable and feature toddler-friendly double rip-tape fastening for a secure, custom fit and easy on/off.
This collection also includes a Microban odour control lining to ensure the footwear stays feeling (and smelling) fresh without needing washing after every wear. The trainers come equipped with a reinforced toe, which adds protection and durability, and flexible, lightweight rubber soles make them easy go-tos for all your kid’s activities.
Prices start at £28, the highest price being £42, and sizes range from 3 to 12.5 (years) in the various styles. Standard and wide fits are also available to better suit your child’s feet and offer comfort whenever they wear their new favourite kicks.
Nearly all of the James And The Giant Peach options are not currently available, but you can find a full list of the options still for sale below.
