Clarks Originals: Desert Boots or Wallabees?
Clarks Originals have recently celebrated the 60th anniversary of its Desert Boot, by creating six new and unique designs that represent every decade since its launch in the 1950′s. Our favourite one has got to be the 1990′s model, a blue suede shoe covered with the Union Jack, reminding us of the Britpop years and Noel Gallagher’s epiphone guitar.
We’ve also seen quite a few collaborations launching. The Peter McKee x Clarks desert boots at Modculture, features a Mod-style look , which isn’t suprising considering Peter McKee has done some artwork for Oasis. We havent heard of anyone stocking the shoes though…
The Clarks Wallabee is also source of interest through its non production sample model that has been made from Barbour fabrics. Unfortunately, according to Selectism, there are no plans for it to be stocked in the near future.
No trackbacks yet.
