Clarks are not just shoes you have; they are shoes you love.  By that standard, this model falls short. The inside materials are wonderful to the touch , but there's very little arch support. Also, the "vents" in the sole allow the smallest puddle to soak your socks. If you plan to be on your feet a lot or walk long distances in these shoes, they seem to be a poor choice. I only wear them now when I'm going to be at my desk all day.
