‘Ooh, have you seen M&S’s take on The Row’s white sandals?’ said Krissy Turner, The Telegraph’s Shopping Editor in one of our meetings last week.
Most of us hadn’t because, to put it bluntly, M&S isn’t on our priority list of shoe sources. In the past, there’s often been something wrong with its shoes. Clunky seams, cheap finishes… even when its ready-to-wear is peppered with gems, M&S shoes have a fusty, desiccated cloud hanging over them, not helped by the fusty, desiccated displays in store.
The record also marked the launch of the Guinness World Records Impairment Records Initiative, which sees the introduction of an initial 23 classification categories for physical, intellectual, and visual impairments.
Adam Brown, director of records at Guinness World Records, said: “It’s a privilege to launch our Impairment Records Initiative today, a project which will make GWR instantly more relevant and accessible to millions of people around the world.
“The project has been a number of years in the making, so to see it go live with the announcement of three fantastic new record-holders is incredibly humbling. We really hope that in launching this project and crowning new record holders, we will encourage many more people with physical, intellectual or visual impairments to get in touch and attempt a Guinness World Records title in the future.”
