Clarks moves into Autumn Winter 2013 with a collection of styles which each embrace the key trends of the season. Influenced by the Edwardian era and the 1990s, the range also delves into the extensive archive collection to produce a multitude of styles reworked with a 21st century twist. NEW EDWARDIAN Inspired by an era of decadence, the residing theme in this part of the collection harks back to a bygone era of tailored style and sartorial indulgence. Classic styles are reinvented for today's modern man through the use of colour and material, to create a look that balances traditional and forward-thinking in equal measure. Brogue, lace-up, buckle and strapping details form the basis of the range which utilises a colour palette of rich browns and classic blacks. Standout Styles: - Dorset Strap – this classic shape sees the revival of the monk strap, a must-have detail for Autumn Winter 2013
- Edward Limit – a modern classic, this brogue comes in luxurious patent leather in a deep and rich burgundy colour-way, the on-trend texture and colour for the season
ACTIVE RETREAT This part of the collection capitalises on the tradition of craftsmanship with an array of country and 1990s grunge-inspired styles. Time-honoured traditions are revisited using antique finishes, archive inspirations and discreet detailing. While grunge styling from the 1990s is revived and fused with sports influences in earthy colours to create a mix of casual everyday styles. Standout Styles: - Darby Desert – following on from the success of the adaptation of Nathan Clark's popular archive style which featured in the Spring Summer 2013 collection
- Newby Jump – a Clarks' archive classic, this style has been updated and refreshed through the use of fabric and colour-pop laces. Its signature rippled sole design has been influenced by the paratrooper boot
- Favour Speed – influenced by sport and crafted in a mix of suede and leather, this style is the epitome of modernised grunge
