Clarks Philippines

Clarks

Few brands have managed to blend heritage, comfort, and timeless style quite like Clarks. Founded in 1825 in the English town of Street, Somerset, Clarks has grown from a small family bootmaking business into a globally recognised footwear icon. Known for its classic designs, impeccable craftsmanship, and commitment to innovation in comfort technology, Clarks has earned a reputation for creating shoes that are as practical as they are stylish. From the iconic Desert Boot to sleek modern loafers, Clarks continues to offer footwear that appeals to both trend-conscious fashion lovers and those who simply value quality and durability.

The History Of Clarks

The story of Clarks starts back in 1825 in the sleepy Somerset village of Street, where brothers Cyrus and James Clark turned a small tannery into the beginnings of a footwear empire. James, ever the innovator, repurposed sheepskin off-cuts to craft the very first slipper, the “Brown Petersburg,” combining comfort, practicality, and ingenuity—a philosophy that would define the brand for nearly two centuries. Early production relied on a network of local home-based workers, reflecting the Clarks’ Quaker values and a genuine commitment to community.

By the late 19th century, Clarks was modernising in style. Under William Clark, factory production embraced cutting-edge tools like the Singer sewing machine, while innovations such as the Hygienic range, left- and right-specific shoes, and children’s sizing systems cemented the brand’s reputation for comfort and precision. These moves weren’t just technical—they were visionary, setting benchmarks that the global footwear industry still respects today.

Post-war, Clarks became a bona fide cultural touchstone. The Desert Boot, designed by Nathan Clark, and the moccasin-inspired Wallabee transcended footwear to become symbols of style, worn by everyone from Mods and Beatniks to reggae and hip-hop artists. Meanwhile, Clarks continued to refine comfort with technologies like Active Air, Cushion Plus™, and Contour Cushion, proving that practical shoes could still be effortlessly stylish. Today, the brand remains headquartered in Street, Somerset, still blending nearly 200 years of heritage with contemporary collaborations and global influence, a quiet powerhouse in the world of modern menswear.

Why Does Clarks Stand Out?

• Authority in Comfort and Fit: Clarks has always been a brand built on the science of walking. Its dedication to foot health sets it apart, pioneering the foot-shaped shoe in 1883, innovating children’s sizing with half-sizes and multiple width fittings, and developing modern cushioning technologies like Cushion Plus™ and Active Air for long-lasting comfort.
• Cultural Icons That Transcend Time: Clarks’ simple designs have repeatedly become symbols in global subcultures. The Desert Boot (1950) became a uniform for Mods, Beatniks, and Jamaican dancehall culture. The Wallabee found a following in 1990s New York hip-hop, famously worn by members of Wu-Tang Clan. Timeless designs like the Desert Boot, Wallabee, and Desert Trek remain instantly recognizable yet minimalist, effortlessly transcending trends.
• Heritage, Craftsmanship, and Ethics: Rooted in Quaker values, Clarks balances innovation with a strong ethical foundation. The company’s early commitment to social activism and community welfare shaped its factory practices, while every shoe begins with a tradition of craftsmanship, ensuring durability and quality that stands apart from fast-fashion competitors.

Clarks succeeds where few brands can: it combines scientifically engineered comfort with timeless, culturally resonant style, making its shoes relevant everywhere—from Jamaican dancehalls to New York streets to corporate boardrooms.
