I wore these daily for two years while working in Afghanistan from 1965 to 1967 and then some after returning to the States. I plan to get another pair and am so glad to have found them again.

After wearing Wallabees for 10 years, I tried the Desert Boot...another great, comfortable Clarks shoe. With that crepe sole and suede, you really can't get a much softer shoe. Not much arch support, and the half-length leather insole is disappointing, but not uncommon on shoes at this price. I wear a size 11 normally, and the 10.5 fits great. Can't wait to get these soles dirty!

Very good feel, nice and soft. Looks good with casual and street apparel. Feels true to my size, I wear an 11.5. Can't big up Clark's desert boot anymore. Love 'em. Oh, and Zappos have outstanding service, I am overseas and never had a problem with returns or anything else.

I think these boots broke in before I made it out the door. You can really do anything in these boots. extremely comfortable. Great heal cup and width (mid width). I and to add more arch support, but I got big ones. Everyone is right and I'm glad I read these reviews before I bought them. Downside! I downsized a half size. Perfect. Cheers!

Absolute Class -
I wore Deserts as a young boy and felt like a proper adult in them. Now, many years later, I feel the stirrings of a much younger me in my Sand and Black Deserts. There is absolutely no footgear (I can think of) on the same level as my Clarks.

I have waited 60 years for another pair of Clarks desert boots. I wore them when I was in the service...USN--Korea...(just got too busy with life I guess). Now that I am an old man, I indulged myself and I was not disappointed. They are every bit as comfortable as I remember. The only thing that has changed is these old feet and my Clarks are easy on them, too. Thanks.

I owned a pair of these many years ago. Putting my feet in a new pair is like meeting up with an old friend. Same easy going fit, soft feel, quality materials. I have a high arch, yet these flat shoes fit just fine. They're the shoes I reach for in the morning, most days.

I ordered shoes at around seven pm one evening (computer is upstairs) and I could swear the shoes were at the door by the time I came down! Zappos has by far the best online service I have ever experienced.

My husband wore these shoes 40 years ago and was so excited to find that they are available again. I purchased them for his Christmas present. He loves them, are exactly what he wanted, but they run about 1/2 size smaller than his regular size 10. Other than the size running small, the shoe is very nice. The leather is soft and pliable, the color was exactly what he wanted and are as well made as they were years ago. Good purchase.

Love the boots! They were pretty tight across the top of the shoe, but stretched out after a few days. Fit great now. Ordered a full size smaller than I normally wear because they run big. Originally, I ordered the dark brown color, but returned them because they're too dark for my taste. Zappos returned them quickly and efficiently and sent me the new color. Very happy. Almost always shop at Zappos and you should do the same.

Zappos is amazing! I ordered this pair of shoes at 3:00 PM on Thanksgiving, and they were delivered before 3:00 PM the next day. Amazing! Clarks desert boots themselves are as billed: comfortable, good fit and well made. I ordered the same size as I buy in a running shoe, and the fit is good and comfortable. The leather is very soft and sole pliable, no breaking in issues. The price was the same as other places on the web, but it's hard to imagine other places having next day shipping included in the price. I am extremely satisfied with Zappos and Clarks' desert boot.

The Desert Boots that I bought for my husband are exactly what he has wanted for years. They are not in stores, but we were so happy to find them on line. Owning a pair of these boots has been a dream of his since he was a young boy. They are comfortable and stylish, and my husband is very proud of finally having a pair of desert boots to wear.

The product was just as described. Shipping was immediate and I was given next day air for no charge. I have used Zappos before and will definitely use them again.

Return to the Chukka Boot. Bought these at John's Shoes on 14st in Manhattan. Wore them to a class reunion for 8 hours the next day. Comfortable, quiet, and cute like a bulldog's face. Another pair or two in another color? Definitely.

\r\nThese were better than the originals I wore in the mid to late 60\'s. Usually "The New 60\'s"\r\nitems are cheap knock offs. NOT these. They fit,\r\nfeel and look like the originals.\r\n\r\nThanks for bringing these 60\'s favorites back safe and sound!!

First, I want to talk about the sizing. This is the first pair of Desert Boots that I have ever bought. I own about 5 pair of Desert Trek and wanted something different. That being said: If you own Desert Trek and are considering this style, then buy 1/2 size down from your DT size. I wear an 11 in the DT and in these I ended up taking a 10.5. Now, for the comfort. These are as comfortable, if not more, than my Desert Treks. Right out of the box they felt good. My only complaint was I couldn't get used to the strings not coming up the shaft of the boot, but that was quickly taken care of with a leather punch. I love these boots and I'm sure they're going to go as far as my other Clarks. The boot looks good, I have already had people asking about them. They have a cool retro look about them (I'm 35 and missed out on the 60s swinging London period). Comfort, class, style. 3 important things to look for in a shoe, and they're Clarks so you know you're getting something good. About Zappos. I've been ordering from Zappos for about 8 years now and am always impressed with the excellent service they provide. I ordered these Monday at 3 pm (EST) and they were at my door on Tuesday 10:30 am. Amazing. The customer service at Zappos is top notch and if you need to exchange anything they make it so easy. If I wasn't a "people person", I wouldn't even bother with stores anymore.

Amazing! I ordered these shoes on the internet at 7:30 PM. At 10:30 the next morning, UPS was at my door with the shoes. Well done Zappos!\r\nAs for the shoes, I think this is the fifth pair of these I have owned. The first pair was as a freshmen in high school way back in the 1960\'s. This shoe never goes out of style. They fit true to size. Need no breaking in and they last forever. They do not hold up well to water, ice or snow, so keep them dry.

I was shopping for desert boots on the net when I found Zappos. Found what I was looking for and ordered them. The customer service reps were fantastic in their help. The quality of the boots were just as I remembered them as a teen, wore them all the time. Great service, ordered them one day and had them at 8:30 am the next. Any time I want quality shoes or boots I will definitely use Zappos. Just can't beat them.

The desert boots I recently purchased from Zappos.com are the same shoes that I wore in the sixties. They are just as comfortable as they have always been. Zappos.com followed through and did what they said they would do. I look forward to continuing my relationship with Zappos.com.

Loving my Clarks Desert Boots, old school, but still cool. My 11.5s had room for a cushioning Spenco insert. I tried inserts with an arch support, as the boot is quite flat, but not enough room for those. I usually buy size 12 in running shoes so I can add the Spenco inserts, so the Clarks may run a little big. I wear 11 flip-flops, but shoes can vary from 11 to 11.5 depending on brand. Anyway they're looking good with my white jeans. Thanks Zappos for excellent service and variety.

Unique, well crafted shoes of decent materials -
The Desert Boot is almost a slipper- light, soft, relaxed, casual, comfortable. Don't expect a work boot or walking shoe, there isn't sufficient support for comfortable all day contact on concrete. Classic style for a casual date or shopping around town, the light color is perfect with denim. I have owned 5 variations of Desert Trek, Fox, and Boot. Light suede colors will pick up stains quite easily, within several minutes. Darker, waxy leather uppers will stay looking brand new for years with occasional saddle soap. It's nearly impossible to wear out the crepe soles on these things, though they will darken considerably with use and change the overall appearance of the shoe. Zappos will not disappoint. Received within 24hrs of order. Amazing.

Love, love, LOVE these boots! It's a shame that Ugg has discontinued this style. They have been really popular here in Maine. They look stylish but are super comfortable, WARM, and stay dry and new looking even after walking through snow, rain, mud and slush. I treated the leather bottom part with Nikwax, which really waterproofs the leather. I am a kindergarten teacher and spend lots of time outdoors all year long in all kinds of weather. Uggs are the one boot I can depend on to keep my feet toasty. I agree with the other reviews that these run small. I normally wear an 8.5, but ordered a size 9, which fits perfectly.

Great for fall and spring weather...
And they get a surprising amount of compliments. Watch for sizing and be sure to protect with suede spray. If you'd like arch support, order a 1/2 size down and still have room for insert. Otherwise, order a full size down.

My Husband Loves Them -
My husband thoroughly enjoys every aspect of the Clarks Desert Boot. He's a casual dresser (except when a special occasion comes around) and when he's not wearing sandals, he's wearing his Clarks. They are casual enough for everyday, but can be worn for "business attire" functions. At least here in sunny California!
