Women's 261227394 Desert Boots

This is my second pair of Clarks Desert Boots. I bought my first pair about 18 months ago and have lived in them virtually every day and they are the most comfortable pair of shoes I have owned - hence buying a second pair. However, I do offer several points of advice. The first is that they are a 'D' fitting and so relatively narrow. The second is they absolutely do need wearing in - they are very stiff and unyielding on first wearing but, in my opinion, they are worth persevering with - it probably took a good couple of weeks wearing them every day before they finally softened down and became like a second skin. The other thing to be aware of is that they have crepe soles, which means they don't have great grip - particularly noticeable when walking on smooth, wet surfaces. And, finally, they are not waterproof. However, if you love a traditional desert boot, then I don't think you will find much better than these.

Some confusion in the listing about the colour. I thought I was ordering olive, but in fact it was the light oak. Not a problem, but the listing needs revising. The sizing does come up small, so as other buyers have suggested, order a half size bigger than your usual shoe size. I did, and they fit perfectly. They are softening up well after wearing for a day, so overall I am happy.

This shoes are wonderful and perfect. I bought it 10 years ago and i needed a new pair now. The price is very interesting (blue navy) but they are black instead. It's not a problem for me because i love the both ! The fit is perfect for me. I am really happy !

Having read previous reviews about them coming up small I bought a 5. I am usually a 4.5 and have narrow feet. I felt like Cinderella’s step sister trying to squeeze my feet into them! They’re going back and probably won’t be replaced as the size 6 is too expensive. Very dissapointed in Clarks. I am 64 and have been wearing Clarks shoes all my life!

I originally ordered a half size larger than I normally wear but on arrival they were too small. I then re-ordered a half size bigger still and they fit perfectly although a bit sloppy on the heels.

Absolutely love these boots! Ordered yesterday afternoon and picked up this morning from an Amazon locker nearby.They were super tight when I first put them on but after just an hour wearing around the house they’re loosening up already.They do wear and change colour pretty much straight away, if you’re looking for a sleek boot which doesn’t show wear these won’t be for you.Will definitely be buying more of these Clarks desert boots. I think I’ll be wearing them a lot.

Knocked down one star as slight scuff marks on one shoe which was disappointing as purchased for a gift but nothing too bad. I ordered a half size bigger as reviews mentioned that this style comes up small. Slightly looser than I was hoping for but okay - would have been too small if I'd have purchased the usual size of the recipient.Fast delivery.

Really pleased with my new boots. I listened to the other people's comments and got half a size bigger and they are perfect
