Clarks’ Cloudsteppers Drift Faye sandals are reduced from £45 to £36 in the retailer’s summer sale, with a TopCashback promotion potentially bringing the price down to £20.69 for eligible new members. The sandals feature a flexible grippy sole, buckle fastening and Cushion Soft footbed, and shoppers praise their comfort, durability and suitability as slippers. They are available in sizes four to eight and three colours, although the lack of half sizes may make fitting difficult.
