Clarks Launches Walking Footwear Range

Sensible shoe specialist Clarks is launching a range of proper outdoors footwear which is due to appear in the shops this July, 2009 and uses technical features which have been tried and tested on existing footwear from the brand.


The new Openair collection features, says Clarks,  'lightweight, protective boots and shoes that are ideal for hiking, trekking and hitting the urban trail'. The range includes lightweight walking boots and shoes which incorporate Clarks' Active Air underfoot cushioning and Rock, a rubber outsole compound which is said to deliver 'a combination of superior grip, stability and abrasion resistance'.

On top of that, Clarks is also using familiar Gore-Tex waterproof and breathable linings in expectation of the arrival of the great British summer. We'll be getting some in for review in due course along with pricing and more technical details.
