Clarks Men's Touareg Vibe Oxford

This "Vibe" shoe is not the same as the Touareg seen in the 5 star review. As evident by the middle stripe being overlayed instead of inset. This "New" Touareg Vibe version is made to lesser quality. The "leather" appears synthetic and the outer sole is some sort of plastic that is slick and will surely crack before the shoe is broken in. Clarks should be ashamed to release such a product but I guess isnt surprising for a company that has obviously sacrificed quality to save money in both materials and manufacture after moving production from the UK to Asia. Returned shoes before wearing. I would not recommend.

I’m giving this three stars because they’re still decent dress shoes. However, Clarks has made a change in the quality of their materials. These shoes don’t look/feel nearly the same quality as Clarks in the past. May have to switch back to Born’s after this pair. *Update* 5/1/18 Ive had these shoes for a considerable amount of time. They have lasted through the lousy MN winter, and dont show any signs of needing replacement. I will be buying another pair of these when the time comes.

UPDATE: Im dropping three stars from my original 5 star review - the reason is on the photos. After only 6-7 months of wearing these shoes (and wearing them a lot I have to admit), the inside looks extremely worn out. Dont know what materials Clarks used for the inside, but its no good at all. Dont think Im gonna buy Clarks anymore, seriously just look at what theyve become. ------------------------ So, I was big fan of ECCO shoes. Well Im still is, but it gets harder to cough up $200+ for a pair. Then I bought Clarks for the first time few years ago, and now I have 3 pairs of Clarks. They are well built, last long, comfortable, and cost half that of ECCOs. These particular shoes look good for a smart-casual attire in the office, and suit jeans just as well. They are comfortable, good cushioning for a long day on feet. Color is nice. They seem to run a bit larger - there is some room in the toe area, not an issue though (wouldve been worse if they ran small). Im very pleased

Bought these to replace an older pair, but dont make them like they used to. As mentioned in other reviews, the center strip is outset and not inset. The quality of the leather and build not as good. And, the color is not representative of what is shown in the Amazon product photos.

I already own this shoe in black, so buying a pair in brown was a no-brainer. This is a comfortable shoe. There is no "break-in" necessary, the shoe feels right as soon as you put it on. The size is just right. I am usually wary of buying shoes online, because if they dont fit, or if you dont like them, YOU have to pay to ship them back. So, in effect, youre paying $6-$8 just to try on shoes. Could you imagine if stores in the mall charged you for every shoe you tried on? Right, theyd go out of business, fast! I digress. This is a versatile shoe thats wearable for casual or dress casual occasions.
