Our iconic women's Desert Boot has been updated in a lavender suede from the Charles F. Stead tannery. Launched in 1950 by Nathan Clark, the Clarks original Desert Boot was inspired by a rough boot from Cairo's Old Bazaar. An instant hit, it became the footwear of choice for off-duty army officers. The lavender suede is teamed with clean lines, an unfussy lace fastening and our signature crepe sole.
