Product Description

Men's classic suede leather boot
Take a hint from WWII's British soldiers, who were apparently quite fashionable, because the Clarks Desert Boot was inspired by them. A durable yet flexible authentic plantation crepe sole creates an extra comfortable platform on which the foot sits, while a durable suede leather upper is made to last. Discreet lacing crosses high on the vamp, and thick stitching around the sole adds extra texture. Padded footbed. Leather upper. Crepe outsole.

A Clarks original.
Men's shoe. Imported.

Customer Reviews

Timeless my foot!
I used to pretty much live in these boots, but for some reason--possibly related to the move to Far East production--Clarks now only make them in a much narrower fitting than before. They've also ramped the price up since they came back into fashion--they used to be a great, cheap option for students and the like, but they're now about three or four times the price of the cheapest alternatives. A sad end to a great British tradition of comfy, economical, yet stylish and well-made shoes.

Desert Boots - What A Fantastic Find!!
I have looked everywhere for desert boots without any luck. They did not seem to exist anymore. This was a shoe that I had worn forever. On a whim I checked Amazon and was pleasently surprised to find these shoes. They are exactly what I wanted. Great shoe, great service.

Surprise - not versatile
I've had mine for a few years, but they have low mileage because they only go with blue jeans. If I pair them with khakis, it looks like I'm wear footsie pajamas. They don't go with navy chinos because the pants look dressy and the boots look way too casual. Something looks is off when I pair them with black jeans. They look great with blue jeans, so if you wear BLUE jeans regularly, get 'em.

Oh, and they are cold in wintery temperatures (45°F and below) because they are Desert Boots. They are cool & comfy in the summer, but colder than slippers in winter.
