Author: Mark Haddon | Thursday 14th November 2024
Clarks has teamed up with Netflix to revive its iconic 1987 Hardware line, this time with a Stranger Things twist. Fans of the show will appreciate the subtle series references throughout, adding a touch of Hawkins nostalgia to these sturdy, retro-inspired sneakers. Available in both children’s and adult sizes, the collection's design balances 80s-inspired color pops with Clarks’ signature durability, offering sneakers that are equally suited for casual wear or a relaxed Netflix night.
The shoes feature vibrant, retro tones, combined with bouncy foam footbeds and smooth linings, creating a comfortable experience in true old-school style. The leather uppers and rubber soles ensure long-lasting wear, and the rip-tape straps add convenience, perfect for slipping on quickly before a game or a night out.
An extra nod to 80s nostalgia is found in the packaging—each pair comes in a replica of Clarks’ original 1980s box, complete with bespoke Stranger Things detailing. Adding to the excitement, Clarks and Netflix have partnered with Raleigh to revive the classic ‘Win a Bike’ competition from the 80s, with a limited-edition, Stranger Things-themed Chopper bike as the grand prize. Keep an eye on Raleigh and Clarks’ social media for a chance to win this one-of-a-kind collectible.
In summary, the Clarks x Stranger Things collection offers a tasteful blend of retro aesthetics, comfort, and durability, capturing the spirit of both brands in a unique collaboration that pays homage to a classic era.
