Clarks Men's Bushacre 2 Chukka Boot

Product Information

But for this boot, the upper is made with pull up leather, which is richly packed with oils and waxes. If you’re looking for a bit more comfort, go ahead and splurge for the Desert Boot 2 and enjoy that leather lining and better foam insole. Because of this, the boot will rarely need conditioning and the leather is fairly water resistant without being treated. This lends a rustic charm to the boot, but makes it a hard sell if you need a boot for anything formal. I’m not blown away by it, but it’s definitely durable enough to last for a year and a half to two years of consistent wear.

This amount includes seller specified domestic postage charges as well as applicable international postage, dispatch, and other fees. The Desert Boot 2 and the Bushacre 3, being the newest models in Clark’s stable, have removable foam insoles which make a HUUUGE impact on comfort as compared to the older styles.His family shoe business had been around for decades prior, but once they started producing the Desert boot, demand for Clarks shoes skyrocketed. It seems like the Bushacre 2 was built to solve a few of the main issues we have with the Desert Boot. Seriously, suede is a cool material with reasonable durability and a unique, signature texture that makes for great casual kicks.

I took a closer look at one of the top chukkas, the Clarks Bushacre 2, breaking down piece by piece so you can decide if it’s the right boot for you. Because the sole is so durable and the leather upper is richly packed with oils and waxes, you’ll get great mileage from these boots, even though you won't be able to resole them.

So the Bushacre 2 uses a similar quality leather and has the same shape and construction, but the sole is harder and more durable.

As we've come to expect from the brand, Clarks has designed these great boots for anyone looking for a versatile design.

We picked up both of these Clarks icons to give you a detailed breakdown of the major differences so you can pick the best boot for your needs. But as the years progressed, shoe technology became a little more advanced and folks started t o shy away from the simple crepe rubber sole.

The “Originals” Desert Boot has a burgundy ¾ length leather insole that’s glued down to the support board/midsole. D/E on a Brannock device and usually take a 10 D in wider-fitting dress shoes, including Alden’s Barrie last and Grant Stone’s Leo last.

Here are what we consider the most useful posts on the site if you're looking to put a little more effort into your appearance. It has some sort of ultra thin suede or faux suede fabric lining around the rear half of the boot that transitions into a twill fabric lining for the front half of the boot. The highlight of the Clarks Desert boot is the richly oiled pull up leather and the simplicity of its construction.The “Originals” Desert Boot was always the better option over the Bushacre 2 because of that natural crepe rubber sole – essentially two die-cut slabs of coagulated latex that’s harvested from latex trees by tapping them like you would tap a maple tree for maple syrup.
