Clarks Men's Desert Boot Bushacre 3 Chukka

Product Information

Because of this they only last me 8 months, although the leather upper seems like it could last three times as long. Overall, the Clarks Bushacre 3 may be more durable and comfortable, but the Clarks Bushacre 2 may be simpler and have a softer, more casual look. This type of rubber outsole also holds up much better when exposed to water, than its predecessor, the Desert Boot.

The upper is made of smooth leather, which looks more sophisticated than its suede predecessor, making the Bushacre 2 perfect for more formal settings as well. Clark’s Bushacre 3 is a chukka that’s a leveled up version of Clarks better known Desert Boot: a thicker outsole and shock absorbing insole make for an experience that’s both more sturdy and comfortable.Replacing the crepe sole for a denser rubber sole makes these boots not only more durable, but gives them better traction on wet surfaces, as well as better water-resistance.

Because the sole is so durable and the leather upper is richly packed with oils and waxes, you’ll get great mileage from these boots. The same can be said about Bushacre 3 as well, however, it has a sturdier material which can be more durable in the long run. This lends a rustic charm to the boot, but makes it a hard sell if you need a boot for anything formal.

Sizing is on the bigger side, meaning, that going down a half or a full size is recommended, for the perfect fit. Because neither has much arch support, they may not be the best option for people who have foot problems or require extra support. All of these factors mean that if you’re spending all day in them, the Desert Boot will probably be more uncomfortable, especially for heavier guys or guys or those who struggle with the kind of foot pain that well made boots help remedy. The sole on the Bushacre 2 answers a lot of the complaints we had with the crepe sole on the Desert Boot.
