I have purchase Clarks sandal for nearly a decade . about ten year ago , I stumble upon a Clarks sandal that fit I absolutely perfectly - comfortable right out of the box . they be so comfortable and fit so well , that I could actually jog several mile in they without the slightest difficulty . when they get long in the tooth , and know that style change and company go out of business , I buy three replacement pair of that issue of the Clarks Sandal . last year when the last of those three pair finally expire , I see the Hudson advertise at Amazon . think this be the sandal I have grow accustomed to , I purchase two pair . to my disappointment , they be not quite -lrb- almost , but not quite -rrb- as well fitting as the previous edition . I think that stem from the fact that Clarks change the design of the rear strap . on the older style , I could position my foot exactly over the center of the sole of the sandal -lrb- use the front strap -rrb- and then snug up the rear strap for a perfect fit . with this new design , there be a limit to how far you can pull the rear strap in . to get the same snug feel , I now have to tighten the two front strap , but this cause my foot to come too far back on the sole for optimal comfort . in another review , I read that a trip to a shoe maker to adjust the strap help overcome a similar problem . I suppose , if the rear strap be shorten and the end nicely stitch off , my problem would be solve . but then these sandal would have cost I more than the $ 79 and change advertise here . I 'll try another brand first -lrb- this time at a shoe store -rrb- . if no other maker come close , then I 'll be back to Clarks . lastly , when I purchase the orininal set of three -lrb- and the pair I start with -rrb- , they be still make in England . not anymore , if that matter ...
