Colorful Corduroy Collaborative Footwear

Aleali May Joins Clarks Originals on a Colorful Capsule

Designer and stylist Aleali May is the latest force to work with Clarks Originals as the two deliver a series of colorful footwear. The classic Wallabee boot silhouette serves as the foundational design and it was officially teased online on Instagram.

May unveils a look at the Clarks samples in five bright tones -- this includes blue, yellow, red, orange, and beige. The shared element between all of the tonal options is that it is made from corduroy materials to channel a soft feel and look. Due to the selection of the fabric, there is a natural ribbed detail that subtly details the upper. Other notable details include the signature A motif on one of the flaps and the pebble crepe sole unit.
