Clarke Shoes UK! Affordable Footwear at any Time!
Clarke Shoes UK have shaken off their fuddy-duddy image of yesteryear, yet still offer great value for money footwear.
Because they've been around for so long and weathered all kinds of economic climates over the decades, you can rest assure that Clarke Shoes will ride the looming recession of 2009 and beyond, very well. When times are tough and money is tight, one of the first cutbacks is on luxury items, including pricy brand name shoes and boots. Thankfully, the range of great looking footwear from the stores of Clark Shoes UK will still enable those of us on a tight budget to have great looking comfortable shoes and
boots adorn our feet, with the only cutback being in brand, not in beauty.
A Breif History on Clark Shoes UK
Only a bare footed wanderer living among a Neolithic ruin of remote rocks and rubble could claim to have never heard of the Clarke Shoes Company of Great Britain. Almost every working class commoner in England, Scotland, and Wales, would have had their feet protected and adorned in a pair of discount Clark shoes at some point during their lifetime, from Clark baby shoes right up to footwear for pensioners. No wonder the Clarke Shoes company is still going strong well into the 21st century.
Businesses certainly come and go in the modern age as more entrepreneurial types compete with long established companies. There is very little on the business forum that hasn't been experienced by Clarke Shoes UK. They've weathered recessions, rapid changes in shoe fashions, fierce competition, and other types of turmoil that long established businesses go through. Not a lot of younger people know this, but Clarke Shoes UK has been operating as a family run company now for a little over 100 years. The history of Clarke Shoes UK and those legendary Clarks Originals, are firmly in the history books along with the Desert boot and other great innovations in the manufacture of national footwear.
There aren't that many UK shoe manufacturers and retailers that have a historical presence in modern day Britain. Clarke shoes goes back so far that the OAPs will remember brands such as the Clarkes Wallabee (still in production, albeit with a bit of restyling). The 1970's saw the launch of the ultra strong polyurethane soles resulting in tough and durable finish to budget footwear. This also made the shoes light, so Clark shoes UK now hit the market with affordable, lightweight, and virtually indestructible shoes and boots that everyone could afford.
Clarks Shoes Style and Comfort set to continue in 2010!
The world we live in today is a very different world that we lived in just 3 generations ago that's for sure. Not only were jobs lower paid, but there wasn't the credit of educational opportunities around that we see today. So when you think that a company such as Clarke shoes UK is still around after all this time, it really does tell you something about the quality and affordability of this innovative shoe company. It is only because Clarke shoes are able to adapt with the times and produce never-ending new lines of fashionable and affordable footwear, that we are lucky to have them around in 2010.
It doesn't seem like a decade ago when the hyped up Dooms Day Millennium was born, and since that time we have seen both growth and decline in footwear fashions. Fancy niche footwear such as Womens Earth shoes, the floatable grotesque Croc shoes and sandals, Dansko Clogs, and many others, some which are still with us, and many that are not. As always, and despite it all, good ole Carks shoes UK is as solid as ever. The Clarks Shoes UK retail outlets are still found in every major town and city nationwide, and this familiar and well loved affordable, fashionable footwear, is likely to be around for many generations to come.
For anyone who's familiar with Clarke shoes and their range of high street shops and outlets, there is something else which helps make this brand what it is, and that is the staff. It seems to have been a company policy of Clark shoes UK to carefully cherry pick their personnel. Not only are the front line employees at Clark shoes UK super friendly, but they certainly seem to know a thing or two about feet and fitting. This is not only comforting to we adults looking for new footwear, but it's especially reassuring to parents who go to get their children measured up for new shoes.
Hip Footwear Says: Clarks Shoes. Established in 1950 and still here in 2010
Despite their critics, Clarks shoes must be doing something right otherwise they would simply have gone out of business decades ago. The footwear market is pretty hostile these days as relentless competition continues to squeeze its way into the game. Even with so much rivalry, Clarks shoes continue to hold their own as they carry on producing hip footwear in a broad range of styles for all people of all ages, and still at the Clarks affordable prices. From 1950 to 2010, this is one UK shoe maker that plans to stick around for generations to come.
Clark Desert Shoes - The First Clarks Original
Clarks Desert Shoes are part of the Clarks Originals collection. In fact the Desert Boot, was the very first Clarks Original and was the idea of Nathan Clark (great grandson of one of the founding brothers of Clarks). The somewhat modified version of this Clark Classic is still a best seller to this day.
