Customer Reviews Clarks Natureveldt

Not the same shoe, uncomfortable fit - After wearing more than eight pairs of these shoes in the past 20 years, I found this year’s model completely different, uncomfortable and unwearable. I returned them, tried another pair and had the same result. Not the same shoe at all. Something is seriously wrong with the footbed.

Not really Wide at all - I just got an 11 Wide in this shoe. It is NOT wide. I have a 5 year old Natureveldt that is regular width that is the same width as this new shoe that is supposed to be more expansive. I am very disappointed.

Naturevelts - I bought a pair of the Naturevelt years ago and they were comfortable, but after only wearing them sporadically, they completely fell apart at the sole/upper connection. Very poor durability for the price. Won't buy them again!

Sad that these used to be my favorite shoes. Clark has given up European quality for unwearable products. At least the Finn Comfort Metz is still made in Germany and worth every penny! Do your homework!!

I can't believe that there have been only 5-star Overall reviews. I used to get Natureveldts when they were made well, IN ENGLAND. Back then, they were one of the most comfortable shoes on the planet. Now they're made IN CHINA and other countries. The shoes are tight and uncomfortable. Same size, same width as before. Also, they used to offer an Oily Brown Nubuck material. Now just "leather". It really sucks. I wish they'd make them with the same size, comfort and quality that they used to. So while the old England-made shoes might get 5 stars, these Chinese-made shoes get 1 star.

Disintegrating Inner Soles - This is my third pair of Natureveldts. The first two lasted a long time and were disposed of when the heel wore down too much to wear any longer. My third pair, which I have not owned all that long, has disintegrating inner soles (below the "leather upper". I first noticed it when I'd take my shoes off and leave black smudge marks (disintegrated dust) on the floor. The inner rectangular patterned sole is so disintegrated whole chunks are now missing. The shoes are literally no longer wearable. The heels and soles are fine. I should have gotten many more years out of these shoes. A major disappoint and product failure in my view.

Mike - The new Natureveldt was nothing like my first GREAT pair. These fit tighter, and the toe-bed irritates my foot. After I noticed the problems I discovered that the shoes are now made elsewhere and the toe bed has been changed. I tried them too long to return them, but can't wear them. I'm just wearing the old pair into dust until I can find something like them.

Great comfort poor looks - This is an extremely comfortable shoe. I detest the looks however. I had a pair form 3 years ago. Comparing the old and the new, I find the newer model has better cushioning but the front of the shoe is very wide and ugly. I don't know why Clarks refuses to make shoes with refined looks. It seems to me that they are obsessed with producing clunkers.

Clarks aren't what they used to be... Tried on 3 different pairs all the same size and color and none fit the same...I bought my last pair of Clarks...only thing that made me happy was the service Zappos gave me...no one has better service and customer relations.

Squeak, squeak, these shoes squeak - Squeak, squeak, these are the squeakiest shoes that you will, squeak, ever own. Every step, squeak, you will hear, squeak, the same annoying, squeak, sound: squeak! No amount of comfort, squeak, they offer your feet, squeak, can make up for the, squeak, sound that will drive you, squeak, crazy and make you really, really, squeak, angry. Don’t say that, squeak, no one warned you. Squeak. I really wanted to like these shoes, but I just couldn't.
