I didn't want to have to do this because I love my Clark's so much! But I was out last night with friends and my third pair of Clarks fell apart, always the same place, this song cracks and just starts falling apart. This is so disheartening because I do love them so much and they are so comfortable. I really feel but now I'm gonna have to go on a hunt for a new favorite shoe. Sorry but the sole should be as good as the rest of the shoe.
