原文： ATTENTION MEN: I have done all the work for you.
I know what you're looking for.
You are looking for a boot that looks manly, both rugged and refined. You want to wear it to the office with khakis, and you also want to wear it with your jeans to chop wood in. You definitely don
't want to worry about it in the snow, and you need it to keep your feet dry. Men don't like wet feet.
You're not a cowboy in Montana so you can't buy cowboy boots without being a dork, and they can't be too heavy because you need to outrun wild animals if necessary. It can't be too tall or too low because you need it to be versatile for in-and-out-of-office use, and it absolutely has to have a low profile with clean, simple lines and stitching, because that's what gentlemen wear. And of course it can't have too tall of a heel because women wear high heels. Men just have heels on our boots and we don't talk about them.
Also, because men like leathery things, you need them to be leather, and not shiny or too clean looking...but a sweet looking, aged, broken-in, badass man leather. Suede can be appropriate in certain occasions, but you want real deal leather. After years of searching, I have found the perfect leather man boot.
The dark brown leather chukka Clarks Bushacre 2 Boot is the same shoe as the Desert Boot, but has a much more durable synthetic sole. It's not as springy as the Desert Boot, so some might say they're not as comfortable. I disagree and literally wear these every day. I've had the Clarks Desert Trek before (not the Desert Boot, but with the same crepe sole) and sure they were comfortable. However - the soles started to wear down pretty quickly, and they literally melted - MELTED - to the seat of my car on a hot day. That's not happening with these babies. The Bushacre is durable as crap and I love them.
I sprayed my dark brown version of the boot with a waterproofing agent from Target that makes these repel water beautifully, and the spray made the boots look darker, more aged and like I've had them for a long time. I also put mink oil on them ever 3 months or so. I've had them nearly 12 months but they were wonderfully broken-in like a glove after a few weeks of regular wear. The boot has only has 4 total eyelets so this helps with comfort, as does the nicely placed reinforcement in the heel which guides the break-in process.
One thing to note regarding size - these guys run big. For example: I wear a 9.5 in Nike for workout shoes. I ordered an 8 in these and they were a bit snug, but have broken in beautifully.
I'm about to say something that maybe I shouldn't because it might be premature to make predictions for 30 years down the road. I will be wearing these boots 30 years from now. They probably won't be the ones on my feet at the moment and I'll probably be on my 3rd or 4th pair then. But they'll be the Bushacre.
I like to wear things until they wear out, and if I find something good and quality I like to make the original last as long as humanly possible. Therefore, I'll continue to wear these every day, I'll get them resoled every so often, and plan on them lasting 10 years. Then I'll buy another pair.
Clarks, please never stop making these boots. If you do I'll have to swim to England and protest at your front gates. Then I'll have to buy 4 more pairs so I can have them for the rest of my life. Thank you for making a rugged yet refined boot that looks good in any occasion, and one that kicks every other boot to the curb with its durability, agility and versatility.
Dudes. Quit researching and buy the best man boot out there for the price. And don't forget to take the cowboy boots off your Amazon Wish List.
P.S. These have very poor traction on snow/ice...I fell last winter cartoon-style with my feet above my head. My shoulder and ego both suffered minor bruises.

译文： 我做的一切都是为了你。
我知道你在找什么。
你正在在找一双看起来很有男子气概的靴子，既坚固又精致。你想穿卡其布的牛仔裤配这双靴子到办公室或者砍木头。你想要在雪地里走也不用担心，并且让你的脚保持干燥。男人不喜欢湿脚。
你不是一个蒙大纳牛仔，你不买牛仔靴，他们不能太重，因为如果必要的话你需要与野生动物赛跑。它不能太高或太低，因为你需要它是能办公室内外使用，它必须有一个干净的，简单的线条和低的拼接外形，因为这是绅士们穿的。当然，鞋跟也不能太高，因为是女人穿高跟鞋。男人穿高跟鞋，我们不谈论他们。
其次，因为男人喜欢皮革的东西，他们的皮革不需要闪亮或太干净…但要看着舒服，复古，破碎的，绉绉的皮革。绒面革能够在适当的场合穿，但你想要真正的皮革。经过多年的探索，我找到了一个完美的男士皮靴。
深棕色的皮革针织衫，bushacre 2靴鞋和沙漠靴相同，但有一个更耐用的合成鞋底。这不像沙漠靴一样有弹性，所以有些人可能会说他们不舒服。我不同意并且每天都穿。在之前我有Clarks沙漠靴（不是沙漠靴，但同样绉鞋底）并且很舒适。然而，鞋底很快就磨损了，在炎热的天气里，它们真的化了，融化在我的汽车座椅上。这些是不会发生的。bushacre很耐用，我爱他们。
我用一个防水剂把我的深棕色的靴子喷了一个防水剂，而且喷雾使靴子看起来更黑，更有年代感，就像我已经穿了很长一段时间了。我也会每3个月左右涂貂油。我已经穿了将近12个月，它们就像手套在几个星期经常使用后的感觉。靴子有4小孔，这有助于舒适，也很好地引导脚趾摆放过程中的突破。
关于尺寸的一件事要注意，它穿了之后会变大。例如：我在运动鞋上穿9.5的耐克鞋。我订了8的有点紧，但会在穿过之后变得刚好合脚。
我想说一些我可能不应该说的话，因为在未来的30年里预测可能为时过早。30年后我将穿这双靴子。可能不会是我现在这双，我可能穿了第三或第四双。但一定是bushacre。
我喜欢穿的东西，直到他们穿了，如果我找到好的东西和质量我喜欢把原上只要可能。因此，我会继续每天穿，我会让他们解决经常和他们长达10年的计划。那我再买一双。
Clarks, 请永远不要停止制造这些靴子。如果你这样做，我就得游到英国，在你的大门前抗议。然后我还得再买4双，这样我就可以在以后的日子里穿了。谢谢你做的坚固而精致的靴子，看起来在任何场合都很好，一个踢其他引导到它的耐用性，灵活性和多功能。
帅哥。停止研究和购买最好的人靴子在那里的价格。别忘了把你的亚马逊愿望清单上的牛仔靴脱掉。
注：这些都很差的牵引雪/冰…我在我的头我的脚落去年冬天卡通风格。我的肩膀和自尊心都受到轻微的挫伤。
