Media Preview/NYC
Clarks footwear company has mastered the art of fashion comfort…we can vouch for this as our go to chelsea boots style we got a few months back-is our go to pair of foot coverings when we know the hours running around the city are a given---and whether we are wear jeans or leggings/dressy top combo.
Kinda like sneakers…we save our über lightweight ones for track work and shorter races…but go to our slightly heavier training ones for endurance-distance for protection, energy return and comfort…Clarks aren't necessarily the lightest weight fashion/comfort brand on the market we have tried on…but they def. go the distance---meaning shoes that don't get switched out ASAP for strictly comfort shoes….because they are
that too.

| Leather Boots/Booties... |
Fall 2014 Clarks women's serve up selections of height-via block heels, wedges, pumps, tall and shorter boots (booties), and chic flat options-for work and casual occasions. All are made remarkably well-impressively so given the prices…and feature high end finishes and details that separate these keepers from the footwear version of disposable (fall apart) fast fashion.
The City Collection-moto, menswear, vintage, equestrian and western influences---in refined neutrals, warm deep tones and muted colors…sleeker silhouettes that are more contemporary looking.
