Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
While the materials are durable, they are not inherently waterproof. We recommend using a protective spray to increase resistance to moisture.
How should I clean the crepe sole?
Use a damp, lint-free cloth to wipe the sole. Avoid using oil-based cleaners or detergents.
Are these suitable for long-distance walking?
They are designed for daily casual wear. While comfortable, they do not feature the intensive arch support found in dedicated hiking or walking shoes.
Do these boots run true to size?
Clarks Originals generally follow standard sizing, but it is best to measure your foot and check the specific size guide for UK measurements.
Can I replace the soles if they wear down?
Because of the unique construction of the Desert Trek, it is best to consult a professional cobbler regarding re-soling options.
Are the laces included?
Yes, each pair comes with matching flat laces designed to complement the boot's style.
Troubleshooting
Crepe sole appears sticky or picking up dirt
Gently clean the edges with a soft brush and avoid walking on excessively hot asphalt or surfaces that cause the rubber to soften.
Suede uppers look dull
Use a soft suede brush to lift the nap and restore the texture of the material.
Boots feel slightly loose
Consider using an insertable insole for a tighter fit and added arch support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Desert Trek boots last for years, proper care is essential. Since the sole is made of natural crepe rubber, it is prone to absorbing heat and sticking to debris if left in direct sun or high heat.
- Storage: Keep boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- Cleaning: Use a specialized suede or leather brush to remove dust from the uppers. For the crepe sole, gently wipe with a damp cloth; avoid harsh cleaning agents that can dissolve the rubber.
- Weatherproofing: Applying a protective water-repellent spray suitable for your specific upper material is recommended to guard against unexpected spills and light rain.
- Compatibility: These boots pair exceptionally well with straight-leg denim, chinos, and casual cotton trousers.
