原文: The perfect boot that will go with just about anything. Chose these over the Desert Boot with the crepe sole, despite some reviews that talked down on the quality of the threading, laces and adherence to the sole (I think some guys maybe received factory defective versions).
I couldn’t be
lieve I found these for $47 here on Amazon, and outside of some initial skepticism - anytime you find a brand like Clarks run a boot at this price, you think it’s for a reason that maybe isn’t so great - I figured I’d give these a go. Thought if the soles did end up having issues, I could always run them to a cobbler to have them fixed. This style of chukka is legendary; iconic - you know it. Everyone from James Dean to Steve McQueen has rocked this style and made them what they are. The Bushacre 2 is beautiful boot that you can wear with jeans, chinos, a henley, tee, button up, denim jacket, heck - even a suit in the right setting. I’ve worn them a few times already and the beeswax leather (yes, leather, don’t let other reviews fool you) has a beautiful patina on the toe box. Part of the allure of these is that they will look better over time, as they wear.
I popped them out of the box and bent them myself immediately, back and forth, to break them in some. Haven’t put any oil or protectant just yet, but probably will soon enough in order to make sure they last. I haven’t worn the crepe sole DB, but have found these pretty dang comfortable thus far. Also like the fact these won’t absorb dirt like the crepe sole will. I’m also sure you could put an insole in these for additional comfort and support, if you feel so inclined.
The laces: I’m thinking the guys complaining about laces might be pulling a bit hard, they seem fine to me - then again, I’ve had them for just a week. :)
Note: Buy a whole size down, as these do run a bit large.
Overall, an awesome quality alternative to the Desert Boot, at a ridiculous price. Glad I pulled the trigger.
Will check back to let you all know how it goes in the coming months.

这是一双百搭的完美靴子。,尽管一些评论讨论了棉线的质量,鞋带和鞋底的牢固程度(我认为有些人可能收到工厂的缺陷版本) ,但我还是选择这双靴子而不是绉纱鞋底的沙漠靴子。
我不敢相信在亚马逊上以47美元的价格就可以买到这些东西,除了一些最初的怀疑任何时候你发现像Clarks这样的品牌可以以这样的价格买了一只靴子,你会认为这里面会有一个不太好的原因我想我还是试试吧。我想如果鞋底出了问题,我总能跑到鞋匠那里把它们修好。这种chukka风格是传奇的;标志性的你知道的。从詹姆斯迪恩(James Dean)到史蒂夫麦奎因(Steve McQueen),每一个人都在颠覆这种风格,让它们成为现在的样子。“Bushacre 2”是一双漂亮的靴子,你可以搭配牛仔裤、斜纹棉布裤、亨利牌(henley) t恤、t恤、系扣上衣、牛仔夹克,甚至是一套合适的套装。我已经穿了几次了,蜂蜡皮革(是的,皮革,不要让其他评论愚弄你)在鞋尖上有一个漂亮的光泽。这些衣服的魅力之一是,随着时间的推移,它们穿起来会更好看。
我把它们从盒子里取出来,自己立即把它们折弯,来回地折,把一些坚硬的地方折断。我还没有给靴子刷任何油或保护剂,但可能很快就会去刷,以确保它们持久可用。我还没穿过双绉底的DB,但到目前为止,我觉得这些真的很舒服。同样,它们不会像绉纱底那样吸收灰尘。我也相信,如果你觉得有必要的话,你可以在里面放一个鞋垫来增加舒适度和支撑感。
鞋带:我想那些抱怨鞋带的家伙可能会有点用力去绑上携带,但它们对我来说似乎很好不过话说回来,我只穿了一周。:)
注意:买全号的,因为这些确实有点大。
总的来说,这是一款超酷的沙漠靴,价格也很离谱。我就很高兴买下了。
会回来检查,让大家都知道它在未来几个月会怎样。
