Recently, the brand teamed up with British designer Christopher Raeburn, who unveiled the results of the collaboration at his show during London Fashion Week in September 2015. Now, Clarks Originals has turned to cool Shoreditch-based retail store Goodhood for a new unisex collaboration.

Two new shoes, based on the classic Clarks Original Wallabee, have been introduced, with both models fitting both men and women. One of the shoes has a fuzzy fur lining and discreet paintbrush detailing, while the second, lower model, features all-over paintbrush detailing. Both models have branded hang tags and removable Goodhood lace tassels, adding a bit of playfulness to the classic Wallabee. The shoes retail for £110 and £120.

"I grew up wearing Wallabees through the British acid house era and it is a shoe I love. We focused on trying to stay true to the original and updating it with sympathetic details taking inspiration from the music videos of that era. The finished product is interesting but totally easy to wear and we know our customers are going to love them," says Goodhood co-founder Jo Sindle.
