Zen Garden-Inspired Footwear

The Footpatrol x Clarks Originals Collection is Tranquil

The Footpatrol x Clarks Originals collection is a series of footwear styles created in collaboration between the brands to achieve a tranquil aesthetic for consumers to appreciate. The footwear comes in the form of the recognizable Wallabee Boot and Desert Trek Cup, which are both constructed with deep gray suede and covered with a pattern that will call to mind the aesthetics of a Japanese Zen garden. This helps to transform the laidback footwear into a truly intriguing style perfect for everyday wear to incorporate a touch of texture into a wardrobe.

The Footpatrol x Clarks Originals collection is slated to arrive both in-store and online starting June 29, 2023, and is certain to be a must-have this summer and fall.
