Wearable Contemporary Style and Comfort with Clarks, Now Open at SM Aura

On your next food crawl or food trip, you'll need one more essential aside from a hefty appetite. Often overlooked, comfortable footwear comes in handy in between multiple dining venues. Walking the pavements and the streets of the concrete jungle all day long can take its toll on your feet. But thanks to the expert shoemakers since 1825 at Clarks, walking can be a breeze while looking good too. It's all about "wearable contemporary style and comfort" at Clarks...

Clarks recently opened its newest store at SM Aura Premier showcasing its latest collection of classic footwear. At the newest store of Clarks, you'll find timeless designs like the The Batcombe Wing and many more, designs that have made the Clarks name synonymous with comfort and style the world over. A rich tradition and history that began in 1825 has made Clarks one of the enduring brands from the United Kingdom, and the newest store at SM Aura reflects the brand boldly moving forward with the times...

The clean and uncluttered space of the new Clarks store at SM Aura offers a refreshingly engaging retail experience for loyal Clarks fans and potential new consumers of the revered British brand. Pristine whites with warm and earthy accents of wood tones highlight the extensive design collection of Clarks, from its iconic footwear to contemporary and modern expressions of style and British aesthetics.

The management team behind Cinderella Marketing Corporation and VIP guests formally opened the new store at SM Aura, as guests entered to experience first hand the quality and craftsmanship of Clarks though its extensive collection. 

Richie Coronel Santos (L), Vice-President of Imported Brands for Cinderella Marketing Corporation, welcomed guests at the opening of the new Clarks store at SM Aura. Loyal customers of the brand always know what to expect from Clarks, but leave it to Richie Coronel Santos to share more details behind the brand. 

During the opening, guests were treated to try and bring home a pair of Clarks, attended to by the efficient and courteous staff. The level of service adds to the retail experience at Clarks. Free-flowing wine and champagne along with cheeses and charcuterie added to the festive vibe at the newest Clarks store.

Founded by brothers Cyrus and James Clark over 192 years ago, Clarks remains a family business to this day with its original headquarters in Somerset still in use. Through the years, the company has seen both style and footwear trends evolve, but the classic lines remain at the core of brand, from the sleek contour of The Ellis Gilbert...

...and other equally classic designs that proudly carries the brand name. The lace-up design, premium leather and detailed stitching exude that look that's become synonymous with Clarks.

Casual. Smart. Elegant. Timeless. And it's all here at the newest store of Clarks at SM Aura.

Work or play? Or both? Just choose either black or brown and you're covered for both work or play with Clarks.

At the center of the store, customers can spot the timeless lines of a true Clarks classic. Introduced back in the early 1950s, the Mens Desert Boot by Clarks remains an iconic design that's not only tough but comfortable as well. Designed by Nathan Clark, great grandson of founder James Clark, the Mens Dessert Boot draws inspiration from the suede boots worn by British officers in the military desert campaigns of the Second World War. Available in both leather or suede, the Mens Dessert Boot by Clarks features the signature crepe sole for effortless wear and style all year around. Utilitarian and pragmatic with that hint of urban style, it's the perfect pair for your travels and adventures. Through the years, many others have adapted the timeless design, and like they say at Clarks, "often imitated but never bettered." Just ask Anthony Bourdain about  his favorite tan suede Mens Dessert Boot by Clarks which you can spot on No Reservations and Parts Unknown.

The Desert London in leather or suede features a similar style to the Desert Boot without the distinctive high ankle silhouette, but just as comfortable and tough too.

New designs include casual all condition footwear using the latest proprietary Trigenic technology for comfort and performance...

...to casual footwear that's perfect for that weekend getaway. Clarks too has evolved, transitioning from the street to performance footwear for active lifestyles and modern yet laidback designs with its ever expanding collection.

And making that final choice can be difficult, but that's all part of the fun and experience at Clarks.

Ladies, don't feel left out just yet, Clarks got you covered too. You can enjoy the same legendary comfort of Clarks in a variety of smart and elegant designs for any occasion.

As trends come and go and continue to evolve, my choice comes down to comfort and understated yet elegant lines at Clarks...

...and I'm ready to walk and keep up with the pace for the next food crawl and food trip in total comfort.
