fantastic deal on clarks desert boots. regularly buy these at the full £95 but was looking at these last week when they went down to £47.50, didn't take the plunge and then saw they went even lower.
if you've never had a pair I recommend you get some as these last for years.
they also have a light cream pair in sale at the same price.
almost a full size run available at the time of posting so get in there quick.
Terracotta at the same price: http://www.clarks.co.uk/p/26114404

Jink (basically low top desert) in beeswax £39.50: http://www.clarks.co.uk/p/26106718
A few other Jink styles for £55 in suede (decent colours too)

Sizing runs large...consider ordering a size or half a size down from your usual - my fit in Clark's desert was 7.5 and I'm 9 in Addidas Gazelles, 8.5 in Converse Chuck's.

Remember to order one size down from your usual size...I'm a 9 in addidas, 8.5 in converse, and the 8 in clarks were too big for me. Just ordered 7.5, so will see if those fit. (ordered beeswax tho).
Really, the best thing to do is go and try them on in a clarks shop, then order online. The sizing is very strange for deserts.

Cheapest I've seen these. Not the best of colours but at this price I can live with that!
Don't forget 5% Quidco on these too.

I bought two pairs of these in the USA for under US$100 last year during a sale. To be honest they are not that great a pair of desert boots.
I much prefer my older Timberland Chukka boots to these, as they are pretty warm (not what you'd want with a desert welly).
Certainly very lightweight but the soles look like they won't be very durable.

I've been wearing desert boots for years and since they were actually made in England ... The quality of these hasn't changed much but prices seem to have been going up all the time ... This is the lowest I've ever seen these being sold anywhere in the world. Originals aren't cheap so this is a great deal. I bought two pairs too :sunglasses:

How do you find the sizing? I got a few other originals (no desert boots) and they've always been a bit snug. I just ordered some Desert boots and went for a half size up, looking at the above comment and a few others on the net regarding the large fit, I'm now a bit worried they'll be too big...

"Following customer feedback, we have changed the fit of our Desert Boot. This style is now a G fit, so we recommend purchasing your usual Clarks size."
Which is no use to me as I haven't bought Clarks in 30 years or so but that might help someone!
HOT HOT HOT tho, these are very reasonably priced right now. As recommended by Anthony Bourdain! Hence I must buy a pair...
EDIT: Super, got some green ones(?!) in a 9.5, let's hope they're all that! Happy tho, been on the lookout for a while, TYVM OP @richwright1!
