Don't stress. sabukaru for Clarks Originals™: Gore-Tex Capsule Collection

Tsuyu - the Japanese rainy season - is notorious. Just as Japan starts to comfortably sink into the warmth of summer, heavy rains begin to hit. It’s changeable and hectic, humid and wet, wreaking havoc on all. But who says the rain needs to ruin your day? In Japanese philosophy, nature and human existence are tightly interwoven - wabi-sabi reminds us at its core that the impermanence of nature is beautiful and should be embraced. Whilst the less enlightened struggle and hide from dramatic downpours, those who come prepared don’t need to stress. Always in touch with both culture and nature, they are opting for adaptable and dependable fashion - and finding Zen on rainy Tokyo streets. In this editorial, sabukaru explores our Gore-Tex Capsule - a collection of dynamic and versatile designs which build style and calm into the chaos of Tsuyu season. Re-interpreting an ethos of practicality intrinsic to streetwear legacy, we’ve combined iconic silhouettes with the functionality of waterproof Gore-Tex technology, creating shoes that are lightweight, breathable, and most importantly weatherproof. Featuring premium Gore-Tex suede uppers and durable, cleated Vibram soles, our Gore-Tex styles offer assured protection with every step.
