Clarks Originals delivers yet another iteration of the Wallabee silhouette for the season. This time around, the brand draws inspiration from hiking purposes and adorns the shoe with details that are ready for hiking and adventure. The pale green hue is the latest update for a pastel look for the season.
The upper is made from nubuck materials and has contrasting details in the form of leather trimming. It continues to retain its moccasin style and has details including the smaller Clarks Originals triangle tag that is true to the brand. It has an FCS-certified detail on the sole unit that ensures that the shoe has been made responsible using materials from forests that are conscious.
