Clarks Desert Boots

[dernsaw]

Just picked up my first pair ever at Nordstrom Rack in Clackamas, OR for $30.00. I love them.

If you are new to Clarks DB, which one would you get "normal" brown leather or the beeswax one?


Could somebody please explain what's the difference / big thing with beeswax leather instead of "normal" leather is?

thanks.

the beeswax seems darker to me in terms of colour.

those BA's I posted a few pages back were all $55 @ Nordstroms, so you might wanna stock up on the $30 and sell them or just wear them when you need a new pair!

Clarks at my Nordstrom Rack are also usually $55 and are usually in totally beat-up condition.

I ended up picking up a pair from banana republic - 40% coupon - 15% for ~ $50

The black suede is ok, but I agree with you on the leather.

whered did you get the coupons from? I cant find any 40% coupons anywhere. and the only 15% coupons I know of are the ones that can't be combined with other offers

Caved and bought a pair. Got the beeswax ones since I figure they'd be easiest to match and wouldn't raise too many eyebrows at work.

hmm i think need someone to help me to get it, because i live far away from Nordstrom rack. haha. maybe next time when i need the new one

Tried on a pair today on the way home from work (beeswax) @ Nordstrom rack. They had a few semi-beat up pairs in my size for $59. Figured I'd think abut it over the weekend, but they were more comfortable than I thought.

the charm of the beeswax model is their development when worn, just dry denim. am I correct?

 

[karmaguy]

so i've got a pair of the beeswax DBs but for my next pair I want something a little more unusual (color or pattern). Anyone have any suggestions for a company that makes DBs other than Clark's (or BB's pearl & co series)?
