Customer Reviews Clarks Desert Boots

Comfy CVlarks - Very comfortable. Rums about a half size long.

Good old "D" boots! I have been wearing Clark's D boots for about 30 years. I bought my first pair in college, and have been in love with them ever since. There is nothing out there like them and probably never will be.

Beautiful - The shoes are exactly what I was looking for and I was unable to buy them in my state even by special order. This was truly a wonderful find.

A classic shoe - These are great shoes with timeless style and apeal. The fact that they are endlessly comfortable as a walking shoe is only matched by their classic shoe.

Excellent Shoe - Bought my first pair, same color. in Saudi Arabia in 1961. They felt great, true to size then as now when I just ordered a new pair. Can't go wrong with these shoes for comfort and ease.

Very pleased - These boots are the most comfortable run- about shoes I own. Next to Sperry boat shoes they are the best.

Clark's Desert Boot - A classic staple for any man's wardrobe. I ordered these via phone at 8:00pm on a Monday night and the box was in my office at 10:00am the NEXT MORNING(!). Insane customer service - the best. I highly recommend these shoes - incredibly comfortable and they pair well with jeans and/or khakis. Timeless style.

Clarks Desert Boot - This has been my favorite shoe for over 25 years. I first started wearing it in college and law school. It is great with jeans and incredibly comfortable!

GARY - I wore these shoes in high school, now I even found a lady who pegs pants. Back to the future I guess. I could not believe how fast these shoes arrived, the next day. THANKS.

Clarks Desert Boot - I wore these as a little kid in the early 70's and they were about the only thing my father wore for casual wear. When I found out that I could get them, I guess I wanted to be like my father. I don't think I quite carry his presence in them yet, but my mom was sure suprised to see them again. One complain, the laces come lose fairly regularly and they don't provide a very tight fit.

A Classic Rediscovered - I love to wear shoes that I've been wearing for most of my life. That's why I still wear Converse Chuck Taylor High-Tops (in white, natch) even though there are new high-tech athletic shoes on the market. I feel the same about Clark's Desert Boots---they are comfortable, feel great (after a little breaking in) and are retro-cool. I didn't know that they were even still around---and then I found 'em on this website---and I'm a happy guy. Kudos to all concerned.

Must wear them in. A classic shoe which needs to be broken in for max comfort. After a few days of wearing them they form to the foot and feel like you've had them for years.

Cream of the crop - The Clarke desert boot is one of the finest products I`v ever worn. I`m 69 years old and I`m on my second pair and ready to purchase a third. I have believed from a small boy on, that whatever you put on your feet had better be the very best money can buy, simply because you`re on your feet all day every day, and you cant afford to have foot problems. The Clarke desert boot is not only functional and good looking, they`re like slipping into an old pair of bedroom slippers but yet have the foot support of Brogans.

Classic - This is one of the original Clarks styles. Very versatile, can be dressed up for work or casual, and always stylish!

Finally - Been looking for these for a long time...finally decided to purchase online- great, durable shoe, good for work or after...

A Timeless Classic - I was first introduced to this classic "desert boot" back in the early '70s. I really fell in love with them for their comfort and for their "basic-ness". They weren't flashy or extravegant, but they had an "earthiness" about them that struck a chord with me. But they were hard to find and I went for years without seeing them. Thanks to the internet I was reintroduced to the Desert Boot in the '90s and have not been without them ever since. And I will continue to wear them in the future. I just hope Clark's understands that there are "hard-core" desert boot enthusiasts out here and that they never, ever decide to quit making them.

I've been wearing these boots since the 1950's. Need I say more.

Desert Boots - Back to the 60's - My older sisters got me a pair in the mid-sixties, a year before they had worked their way in coolness down to the kids my age, so I got teased about my shoes for a year, until all the other kids were wearing them too. It's fun to go retro, and back to childhood roots by buying and wearing these. They work well with jeans. Just noticed last night that I stepped in gum though.

Wearing for over 50 years - I got my frist pair in 1949 haven't been able to buy since the 80's. Ive had all colers also in tan and grey leathers.I am so glad I can now buy again. In 1949 they were I think $3.95 a pair!! Now there a arm and leg!!! Still love them!!!

Solid shoe - Very comfortable shoe. Only problem with it is that I think the soles are too flimsy. It's a gum sole and seems like it'll wear out in two months. I've only been wearing them for 2 weeks.--so far so good. They provide no traction whatsoever if the ground is wet. I live in LA so it's no problem for me; I wonder how people in seattle have dealt with this shoe... I tried this shoe on in the store before so I already knew what I was getting. I suggest everyone do that if possible.

Great shoe but need to bring back wide widths - I've purchased new pairs of desert boots every year since 1976 usually through L.L. Bean but now they are very hard to find. I love this boot. Back in the 90's they were making them in China and I have to admit they were made better in China, they had a slightly thicker sole and they had a liner on the inside and most important they made them in "WIDE" widths. Around 1999 Clarks quit making the wide widths, I found a store in Canada that still hade some wide widths and bought them all. Now I need new desert boots but can't find any wides. If anyone reading this knows someplace that sells them with wide widths please e-mail me, I'm in desperate need, these are the only shoes I'll wear. I've tried buying the current medium widths but the toe area is just to narrow. I don't know what it is with Clarks nowaday's they were always the one place you could get wide size shoes. Also I've noticed that the current sole on the desert boots is thinner - not a good thing! I believe the Desert Boots that were made in China during the 90's were the best. I wish Clarks would bring back that line of the original desert Boots.

Width - I very much like the Clark desert boot and Walaby but they are too wide. If there were a narrower width I would buy many pairs. In the future if these shoes are offered in a narrower width I would like to be contacted. Thank you.

A Great Product Never Dies - I got my first pair of desert boots after I saw George Harrison wearing a pair on the cover of the Abbey Road Lp. He has been a great influence in my life so why not assume he knew something about comfortable shoes. Well it is obvious that he knew something about shoes. The desert boot is the most comfortable shoe and the best thing a person can do for his/her feet. Thanks to Clarks for keeping them around!

Clarks Desert Boot - This is my first pair of crepe-soled Clarks and so far they're great. I really like how these boots conform to your foot. The leather is soft, but still feel rugged. It seems that these along with Wallabees are all wider than marked, but that allows for more toe room.
