    I received mine today - They are lovely but....

    BEWARE - they seem small for size to me - Might be worth considering going up a size
  • Received mine today and agree they are small made. I've reordered half a size up so hopefully they'll be better. I'm impressed with their delivery as the order confirmation said Thursday. Thanks again OP.

    im not sure about mine, im normally a 7 but recently found some styles fit better with 8, anyway ive gone for the 8 on these and they are tight over the foot/toes area and really loose around the heel/ankle ??? im not sure now if i should keep both pairs :(

    Got a pair of black and a pair of brown today, I am normally a 7 but ordered 8 cos I wear thick socks with boots and they fit ok, if I had gone any smaller they would have had to have gone back though!

    I got an 8 and they're more like a 7, so am taking them back as they don't have any 9s left:rolleyes::rolleyes:

    Agreed these are very small compared to normal Clarks sizing. Mine will have to go back! The "orange" stripe on the black ones is the edge of the leather - it is quite noticeable, so I would probably have used a bit of black marker pen if the look didn't grow on me. There is also a plastic bit at the back of the heel over the leather which makes it look quite chunky. But definitely good sturdy boots at a great price.

    I wasn't keen on the stripe either, but nice boots. Shame they were sized wrong as most of us seem to have found them too small:(

  • I got mine today too, am normally 5.5 but 6 fits well, like the black ones, but ordered the brown with supposedly matching leather bag,which is a completely different colour, the boots are a reddish mid brown and the bag dark brown without the red tone so they will be going back.

    Mine have just arrived, I ordered the brown (although thought i was getting the black, cos they are called ebony) Im pleased with the the brown and they fit as I didnt go for the half size that I technically am but dont often buy. I have to say the active air cushioning seems fantastic, so comfortable, im very impressed x
