Felix Maginn awarded Best Dressed by Esquire

Last night Felix Maginn, singer/guitarist of the popband Moke, won the title of "best dressed man of 2011".
And as he is a true Clarks Originals ambassador who nearly always wears his Desert boots, we thought he deserved some extra attention.

The awards took place last night and were held by Dutch men's magazine Esquire. The jury chose Felix as winner due to his "international reputation".

As they stated "Maginn won because his style goes beyond the clothes he wears. It includes his haircut, but also the whole atmosphere that Moke has." The jury came to the decision together with 31,223 voters.

Congratulations Felix!

Clarks Originals video

It should be summer but it's pooring rain in Amsterdam. We just received this clip made by Annegien van der Ende documenting the press event we did for Clarks Originals earlier this month. This perfect boat trip, Moke's accoustic performance and the new Originals collection makes us longing for summery days again. Enjoy!
