In collaboration with National Geographic, these eye-catching boots use a faux fur upper printed with a tiger print from the Photo Ark book by photographer Joel Sartore. Launched in 1950 by Nathan Clark, the original Clarks 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. Clean lines and an unfussy lace fastening has been teamed with our signature crepe sole.
