Martine Rose x Clarks FW24 Offers a Puffed and Playful Spin on Archival Classics
A bold collection of reimagined Clarks styles in dopamine-inducing hues, exotic textures and pillow-like padded uppers.
Martine Rose and Clarks have returned with a fresh drop of new footwear that injects archival Clarks styles with bold color, textured leathers and padded uppers.
Since the British-Jamaican designer’s appointment as a guest creative director for Clarks in 2023, Rose has pulled the Boston-based shoe brand into new territory with her melting pot of modern influences. Cleverly titled “Coming Up Roses” the collection takes a comfort-centered approach without sacrificing on style.
Favorite styles like the Oxford and The Loafer return from the previous season in inflated leather down padding. Allowing the puffy silhouettes to take center stage, Rose douses each pair in singular colors like classic black, lilac purple, and tangerine orange.
The new collection reinterprets the Wallabee-inspired Clarks Torhill Hi with a walnut brown faux crocodile and a gold-foiled Martine Rose x Clarks tag. For an easy yet expressive slip-on style, The Clog appears in faux-crocodile, leather fur, as well as performance upper fabrications, resting atop a textured athletic midsole.
Rose and Clarks also offer two heeled options, including the mid-heel Loafers and the pointed low-heel Slingback styles, both continuing the down-padded uppers.
In September, Martine Rose also unveiled a reimagined Clarks Desert Trek in a collaborative capsule with Supreme. The Martine Rose x Supreme Clarks Desert Trek was introduced in three color ways and made in a similar faux crocodile.
Take a look at some of the highlights in the gallery above. The Martine Rose x Clarks FW24 collection is available now exclusively at Martine Rose and Clarks web stores, and will also be available globally on October 10th at select retailers.
