Overview: Clarks' light trail boot
The Clarks Pace TrailHi WP is a men's boot that mixes the comfort of a sports shoe with the look of a hiking boot. It combines black nubuck, a padded collar, laces and a thick C360 Foam sole.
It is made for anyone who wants a comfortable, hard-wearing boot for everyday wear, with a modern trail look and a black that is easy to match.
Design and style: black with navy details
The design rests on a black nubuck with overlays and marked stitching, a toe reinforcement and a padded collar with a navy lining. The technical-looking laces run through fabric eyelets and the black pull loop with a blue thread makes the boot easy to put on.
The Clarks logo appears discreetly on the side. The sole, thick and wavy in profile, carries a navy stripe at the heel and the C360 Foam inscription.
Materials and finish
The outer is nubuck, a leather with a slightly sanded surface that gives it a velvety feel, stands up well to use and is easy to care for. The collar is padded and in fabric.
The sole combines a thick C360 Foam midsole, which cushions, with a rubber outsole with lugs, which grips on damp and uneven ground.
WP (Waterproof) designation
The model name includes WP, Clarks' Waterproof designation, a construction made to resist water. For the protection to be effective, keep the nubuck clean and protected with a spray.
Even so, they are not boots for submerging or wading: in heavy rain or standing water, avoid prolonged contact.
Everyday comfort
The comfort of this model rests on the cushioning of the C360 Foam sole, a comfortable last, a padded collar that holds the ankle without squeezing and laces that let you adjust the fit.
Like any leather footwear, it adapts to the foot with wear. It is worth trying them on with the socks you will wear in winter.
For which occasions
These are boots for autumn and winter: everyday city life, rainy days, walks in the countryside, travel and casual clothes.
For deep snow or technical mountaineering there are more specific shoes; for urban and mid-season use they are a comfortable, hard-wearing option.
How to wear them
With straight jeans or cargo trousers, they look very good. With dark chinos, they add a sporty touch. Black goes with any colour and the navy of the collar and the sole goes with blues and greys.
On top, parkas, quilted jackets, hoodies and chunky knitted cardigans all work.
Our opinion at Calzados Vesga
Our verdict is very positive: it is a comfortable, well-cushioned boot with a very current trail look, discreet in black. It delivers what it promises as an autumn and winter boot.
For anyone who wants a black, sporty, comfortable boot for everyday wear, it is a very safe choice.
Size guide and fit
The model comes in EU sizes 41, 41.5, 42, 42.5, 43, 44 and 45. The last is comfortable. If you are between two sizes, choose the larger, especially with a wide foot or thick socks.
To measure, stand with your heel against a wall, measure to your longest toe and leave 5 to 10 mm of room. That space stops the toes touching the end and lets the foot swell during the day. The laces will let you adjust the room over the instep.
Care and cleaning
Nubuck needs specific care. Brush it with a nubuck or suede brush to remove dust and apply a protective spray before first wear. Marks are treated with a suede eraser. If they get wet, let them dry at room temperature, away from radiators and heaters.
Do not machine-wash the boots or submerge them. Clean the sole with a brush and a damp cloth. Store them with paper inside so they keep their shape.
Before you decide
They may not be what you want if you prefer dress footwear or a light, flat boot. The sole is thick and gives them a bulky, sporty look.
They are perfect if you want a black trail-style boot that is comfortable and grips well, for everyday autumn and winter use.
