Here, we asked stylist Ryota Yamada to suggest styling ideas using the innovatively evolved "Nature IV," and we asked him to show us how to wear each of the three colors. All of them are sophisticated street styles that capture the current trend, while taking advantage of the design and comfort of "Nature IV".

STYLING1

This is a kitschy outfit with a "90s" look. The tie-dye T-shirt and denim with remade sides give it a 90's look.

STYLING2

The big silhouette Gurkha shorts give the outfit a 90s street look. To avoid making the outfit look childish, I chose a subdued gray color for the "Nature IV. Also, the patterned hat accentuates the coordinated look and the street style.

STYLING3

The overall silhouette is a little more relaxed, which is what I'm in the mood for. I've added a desert camo jacket, but it's all in one earth tone, so it neutralizes the hardness of the camouflage. On my feet, I wore black "Nature IV" to tie it all together. Remember, camouflage goes well with black."

Clarks, which has been pursuing foot health and comfort for a long time, created the Nature IV in February 2017 with full force. There are four key points. First, the last (wooden form) for comfort. The lasts are handmade by craftsmen, one by one, and embody the brand's unique attitude of putting the feet first. Second is the insole. The insole, with its high cushioning and flexibility, absorbs shock and enhances walking performance. Third, the mesh upper, a symbol of innovative design, enhances breathability and stylish design. Finally, to ensure a comfortable fit, the single seam also creates an excellent fit while keeping the number of parts to a minimum. These four points make up the Nature IV, a model that brings together the best of Clarks' shoemaking and forward-thinking technology.
