Shoes like Clark's circa 2005
So I was recently in a Clark’s outlet and at least the men’s shoes seemed obviously a victim of shrinkflation, ie they felt a lot cheaper and lesser quality. Which makes sense as they’re still doing 2 for 99 or I guess men’s just went up to 109. But they were 50 dollars each at the outlets back in 05, so they simply have to be lesser quality now. And it’s really obvious.
So what’s a men’s shoe that has the quality of older Clark’s at maybe 100 a pair now? Anything or do I have to step up to like the Redwing Irish Setter at more like 200?
I mostly want kind of half and half leather boots/shoes. Comfortable. I guess if they also have women’s options that would be interesting too for my mom and sister who had liked Clark’s back in the day.
