Just got these guys in the mail today in the Grey Distressed suede.  Heed my warning, when ordering Clarks Desert Boots, be sure to SIZE DOWN A FULL SIZE!  I normally wear a size 9 in every other shoe, but a size 8 in CDB is absolutely the perfect fit.  As for the boots themselves, the leather feels great, and the suede on these isn't "fuzzy" like couch suede, but more subtle and soft like well-worn suede boots should feel.  The sole is very comfortable with a definite spring in the step that I did not expect.  If you're looking for a great casual boot, you can't go wrong with a CDB.
