Clarks are the best looking boots.
Clarks is the originator of the desert boot and they are under a $100, plus they are so comfortable I can't believe it. There is little arch support but for some reason they don't feel that way. I have a herniated disc and I find these to be the shoes/boots I reach for every day.

Slightly Mixed Review -
These are great looking boots but I will say that there comfort level is not the best. Great for a 2-3 hour jaunt around the neighborhood but any longer than that, good luck.

My new favorite shoe -
Just discovered Clarks Desert Boots and they are quickly becoming my new favorite shoes. Awesome style, great comfort. Lace them loose. Felt a lot bigger than my normal size. I'm usually an Adidas Originals kind of guy; the crazier the color the better, but these add a nice retro, subtle touch to my wardrobe.

I read the reviews on these shoes for weeks before making my purchase, and I was only increasingly sold on them every time I looked at them. First of all, the shoe fit perfectly. I ordered a half size up like some people suggested, but they were too big. So I ordered my correct size, 10, and they really do fit like a glove, and they really are pretty comfortable. Second, I am speechless at how fast Zappos is. I ordered on Saturday and received them Monday. When I called to exchange them for the proper size, I received THAT pair Tuesday! And all of the shipping was done for free. I can only say long live Zappos and may you be continuously be prosperous.

Make me feel like a hippy -
From what I hear, if you've ever worn a chukka boot, you've worn this shoe. For those who haven't, it's very, very quiet. I kinda feel like creeping and lurking and sneaking up on people while wearing them. I ordered my size, and while they do feel loose-ish in dress socks or thin cotton, fall-weight cotton socks fill them out nicely. A boot that doesn't feel like a boot, no wonder they were all over the seventies! I like this boot and will now be adding it to my staple of shoes.

The best in the world -
I am originally from London, England and I've been wearing Clarks for a very long time. As far as comfort, excellent and style, words cannot describe. I still have pair since 2001 and still going strong. These boots can go with any type of dress code from jeans, slacks even shorts. Keep up the good work Clarks, love you like cook food...

A newer version or style of anything is never better than the originals. Thanks Zappos from allowing me to have a pair of the original desert boot Clarks.

Clean, Sharp, Classic -
They look good. They're casual, with just the right amount of 'dress'. They look good with jeans and khakis. They're a great alternative to the trendy 'athletic-inspired' shoe. They're classic. You gotta love Clarks. Plus Steve McQueen wore 'em. Need I say more!?!
(I will say one more thing though: Even though the shoe basically fit, following the suggestion to buy a size smaller, it's kind of tight in the toe, but slips off the heel. It's a minor problem, but should definitely be fixed.)

Very Sad!
I love Clarks Wallabees and I have been wearing just one pair for the last 2 years and it still looks great and feels comfortable. I thought I would try the Desert Boot to switch it up and I was VERY disappointed. The shoe was very uncomfortable and my feet felt cold in them. The back of my heel began to hurt because the shoe is so stiff and the quality of leather is nothing like it is with the Wallabee. The look of the shoe could be mistaken for a Doc Marten and I find that insulting. Stick with the Wallabee!!! Also, if you are a woman and you are buying this shoe, it really looks like a man's shoe when you wear it.

Lovely -
Wonderful looking shoe, but absolutely no cushion in the heel, the heel feels like heck, you would think with all the technology today they could do something about, how about just make the whole shoe flat like the front, which feels fine and knock off that sorry excuse for a heel they have on there, I need to find something that looks similar but feels superior!! :(

Clark's Classic Desert Boots -
After wearing out classic tan Desert Boots from wearing them nearly every day in Afghanistan, I've ordered two more pair for Iraq: A tan, and a black for more "formal" occasions. It's good to see that Clarks are still as durable and comfortable as my first pair...back in the 60s!

I have been looking for this shoe for a while and when I found it on the website I couldn't believe that they had them. The price and the speed that they came in were awesome! They fit great and look awesome with anything.

Great looking shoe. I've been searching all the malls and Clarks stores for this model and color. Nothing. Then a friend referred me to Zappos.com. They got it and the size I wanted. Came out cheaper plus FREE SHIPPING when I bought it online. Came in EXCELLENT condition. I will DEFINETLY buy shoes and recommend Zappos.com to my friends.

Clark's almost classic desert boot -
This man's desert boot is the closest you will find to the original '60s classic. If you loved the original, you will love these. If you don't remember the originals, you will love these anyway! Great with jeans, khakis or cords, and in a variety of fabulous colors. You'll want them in all the colors!

Desert Boots -
I'm happy with this shoe. Used to wear desert boots all the time as I was growing up. I've gotten good comments from friends. I think they're a little jealous, because we all used to wear them. Maybe I'll try some of the other colors. They didn't have my size when I ordered so I had to get l/2 size up. They fit pretty well so now next time I order I'm not sure what size to get.

Great boot!
This is a great boot. Its straightforward design gives it the robust look that I was looking for. It is a comfortable shoe as well. This is my second pair, I had a low-cut version before. The only weak point seems to be its sole that I went through in slightly over a year of daily wear. But the fact that I ordered a similar shoe again says it all.

Great throwback shoes -
Like going back in time. Very comfortable except my feet are older now...may need to try heel gel inserts to absorb a bit more shock. Feet stay cool and cozy. Only minus is the flimsy laces (also just like they were in the past), but replacements are e-z. Will buy dark brown too. Zappos is tops.

The right thing -
The retro cool look of this shoe was perfect... they go with blue or black jeans, or cuffed slacks. Dressed up or down, they work. The fit is slightly large, which is good since they did not come in the 1/2 size that I would normally buy. Very comfortable right out of the box; I'll use them a lot. I looked and couldn't find these anywhere in stores.

I have worn this venerable shoe for more than thirty five years. My father wore his for more than fifty. I am very sorry Clarks is discontinuing this style.

First buy atZappos -
I was unbale to find these shoes in store, so I went to Zappos. These shoes are OK, but most of all, Zappos is great. They offered me free "2 business days delivery"!
I think I will go again with them next time I need shoes.
They would even be able to make you buy shoes when you don't need them, just for the pleasure of dealing with them.

Watch your size!!
Love desert boots and bless you zappos for having them available. If you've not owned these guys before watch your size. I wear US 11 1/2 - 12 but wear a 10 1/2 desert boot. They stretch out with wear so a bit tight to start but then they ease in just right. Perfect for all your modern action needs.

 |  | Just wanted you to know that your service is extrodinary. I was a center supervisor for UPS and we would actually have your customers ask our drivers how in the world their order could be in little ol’ Glendive, MT the next morning when the shoes were ordered 7:00 p.m. the previous night. You certainly make UPS look good. I make sure and tell all my friends about Zappos, and they love it, thanks! |  | ~ Patti P., September 17 2008
