Clarks' new Axcel Walk trainers are proving popular with shoppers, who praise them as comfortable from the moment they put them on. The trainers, priced at £65, are available in four colours and sizes four to eight in D (standard) width.
Shoppers Snap Up New Clarks Trainers
The Axcel Walk trainers are new to the Clarks website but have already attracted positive attention. Shoppers can purchase them for £52 when bought with another pair under the 'two for 20% off' deal. Colours include green, beige, black and gold metallic.
The design draws inspiration from the popular dad sneaker trend, featuring a chunky silhouette and sporty, retro aesthetic. Lightweight and flexible, they are suited for everyday wear, with a statement rubber outsole and breathable mesh uppers for grip and comfort.
Design and Styling Versatility
Inside, the trainers have a soft textile lining to keep feet comfortable and sweat-free. A classic lace-up fastening system ensures a secure, adjustable fit. Their versatile design allows them to be dressed up or down, pairing well with jeans for the office or errands, and with leggings or joggers for workouts.
Elsewhere on the high street, Marks and Spencer's Leather Side Detail Trainers retail at £49.50, featuring a regular fit, lace-up fastening and Freshfeet technology to minimise odour. Alternatively, FitFlop's F-Mode Flow Fabric/Suede/Leather Flatform Trainers cost £90, combining a retro-inspired chunky sole with ergonomic comfort technology.

While no negative reviews have been received, one shopper deducted a star due to the 20mm heel, noting: "A nice-looking trainer. A wee bit high at the heel but comfortable." Another five-star review read: "Lovely trainers. They look nice and were comfortable all day as soon as I put them on." A further review stated: "Very comfortable trainers. I have trouble getting shoes to fit as one my feet is a bit deformed after breaking it."
