“The end of the second world war saw dramatic expansion for Clarks as they moved into world markets.

In the early 1950s Nathan Clark introduced the Desert Boot. Modelled on the simple, comfortable boots that his fellow army officers found in the bazaars of Cairo, the boot had attitude, and quickly gained global popularity. It was followed in the 60s by Lance Clark’s Wallabee -­ a simple moccasin style that was to become another Clarks classic.

The 1960s also saw huge success for Clarks children’s shoes as their unique fitting properties set the standard for comfort and fit.”
