NN.07 puts a buckle across the Desert Boot, giving a Clarks staple a suggestion of the monk strap. It’s the strongest intervention in the Copenhagen label’s first collaboration with Clarks Originals, a limited-edition collection called “Contrast in Conversation.”

The black full-grain cowhide upper gives the silver hardware something to work against, while the natural crepe rubber sole keeps the boot connected to its casual origins. Beneath checked suit trousers, that broad strap becomes the detail that loosens up the tailoring.

The Wallabee takes a quieter route, its brown full-grain leather finished with silver lace tips and NN.07 hangtags. An inked sidewall matches the upper, drawing the moccasin construction and crepe sole into one tonal shape. Worn with cuffed denim, it puts the emphasis on leather texture and the curve of the toe.

Across both styles, NN.07 treats Clarks’ streetwear heritage as part of a wardrobe that already includes suits. The buckle simply gives the Desert Boot another way to dress for the occasion.

The relationship between tailoring and casual footwear also runs through NN.07’s fall-winter 2026 collection, where loafers accompany a wardrobe built around flexible formality.
