Recognizable for its signature center stitched seam, the Desert Trek oxford has been a footwear classic for nearly 30 years. The roomy toe box allows for natural toe spread, while the genuine plantation crepe outsole cushions the foot and buffers shock. Clarks has been in business for over 100 years making very fine men's dress shoes in a variety of styles. Featuring a wide range of top-quality components, Clarks gives you the options you desire in the quality you demand.

Continue to love these!!!
I have owned a few pairs of these so my review is pretty accurate.Pros:Incredibly durable and long lasting, comfortable and pack easy (fold pretty flat in your bag). Looks nice enough to wear to a nicer dinner or venue, but feels and looks timelessly comfortable and fashionable with a pair of jeans and a t-shirt also.Cons (or “need to knows”):They are leather, so Clarks accounts for break in when they make them. ORDER THEM A HALF A SIZE SMALLER THAN WHAT YOU WEAR. They will be a bit tight when you try them on...and that's ok...they will break in to be comfy after a few wears. I have wide feet and wear orthotics and these break in great for me. No arch support to speak of, but any shoe insert fixes that (and feels better than any manufacturer insole anyway).

Do yourself a favor and purchase two pair NOW!
These are my favorite shoes and I plan to order a second pair to store just in case Clarks ever decides to stop making this wonderful shoe! They take some getting used to and you have to have a break-in period but you will not be sorry if you are patient. When they first arrive, the leather is very VERY stiff and I had some trouble even getting them on. The first day, I could only wear them for a few hours, the second day a little longer and by the third day, I was wearing them through the day. Now, a week later, they are my daily shoe. I do use a heal insert to help with plantar fasciitis but even with those in, the shoe fits true to size once it is broken in. As to longevity, this is a replacement pair for me. My previous pair lasted three years then I wore through the sole, however the leather upper is in perfect shape so I may re-sole the shoe one day for a back-up pair. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Brownn sueede the besttt
I wear a 10.5 in sneakers , 9.5 in Desert Clarks and for this shoe, the 10 was perfect.The shoe is just amazing in looks , compliments from strangers everyday..I especially love the contrast with the tan on the heel of the shoe. I have flat feet and these work just perfect for me just note that the shoe is probably gonna be a tad heavier than you're used to but its not bothersome.Overall happy wid the purchase

Do It. Perennially Cool.
This is my second pair of Treks. I consistently wear a 9 in most shoes, and these - as with the first pair - run a full size LARGER than normal. 8s fit me perfectly. Perhaps others received "off" pairs, and thus why theirs seemed normal sized or small, but I would not recommend ordering your normal size. Go down. These are perennially cool. With jeans, they rock. They're also super comfortable. I've owned many styles of Clarks. All the crepe soled shoes are absolutely awesome. BUY THESE or WALLABEES. Fantastic. And Amazon consistently is lower than the usual $140 ticket price found nearly everywhere else.

Not horrible...but not as good as hoped either.....
Based on previous reviews about these running big, I ordered my 'normal' size 11 knowing a bit big is far better than a bit small. When the shoes arrived, they were very snug. I had to return and order a half size larger. (good thing Amazon's ordering/return system works so well) Receive the 'right' size as promised. The shoes are pretty comfortable but do have a few quirks. First off, there is a slight pinch on the top of the big toe where the leather bends while walking. Secondly, there is a decided 'pop' in the leather with each step, again in the toe area as the leather bends then relaxes with each step. I'm hopeful that once worn a bit, both issues will remedy themselves. The shoes are very nice looking and I've had several compliments on them already. The toe pinch does seem to be going away and I hope the popping sound does as well. The shoes appear to be very well made. They are not light as the sole seems to be very durable. All in all, I'm glad I ordered them as I expect them to be great shoes. Just not the slipper feel I'd hoped for, but are very comfortable none the less.

These were all I wore in my youth. Love the look and comfort. Ordered a pair a few days ago and was forced to return them. It may be that the last or pattern has changed; more likely my feet have widened. Either way, these were painfully tight across the wide part of the foot, and though the uppers are relatively soft, there is so little space above the foot that they could not have re-formed sufficiently to allow them to have been worn. I'm sure they're still a good choice for people with narrow feet, but I found that even ordering a full size up did nothing to attenuate the discomfort.

I love these shoes.
These shoes are great, timelessly stylish and very comfortable. I read in other reviews that the fit ran large, but this wasn't true of my experience. I was apprehensive of placing my order after reading about other's fitment issues, so I went to the mall and tried on another style of Clarks shoe in my size and found them to fit correctly. I felt confident these would fit similarly, so I placed the order and was right. I wear a 9 in athletic shoes and an 8 in casual or dress shoes; I ordered an 8 and it fits perfectly. Im just guessing, but maybe the reviewers who found that the fitment large mostly wear athletic shoes and didn't consider the sizing difference when moving to a casual shoe. As others have described, the finish of the beeswax leather is not as shown in the picture, but more a chocolate brown out of the box. I've now been wearing these for about three weeks and can say that over said time the shoes are beginning to develop finish comparable to the one pictured, and that I can see them looking just like it with future wear. All in all a great shoe, they go great with jeans or chinos, and are as comfortable as they are stylish.
