Clarks has launched an online marketplace, allowing customers to shop with over 100 different brands

Customers can now shop thousands of third-party products from the likes of Adidas, Nike, Mountain Warehouse, Hugo Boss, Under Armour, and Marc Jacobs via the Clarks website.

The footwear specialist is also working with several independent brands such as Apatchy London, Toby Tiger, and Tinc.

Brands now at Clarks’ offer a range of categories including womenswear, menswear, childrenswear, accessories, and lifestyle products.

The launch forms part of the retailer’s growth strategy as it looks to evolve from a specialist footwear retailer to a curated lifestyle destination.

The brands have been phased onto the website and will offer more than 100 brands at the end of the week.

Clarks president UK and EMEA Joe Ulloa said: “From the outset, it was essential that every brand partner reflected the values that have defined Clarks for over 200 years - premium quality, comfort and value.

“Brands now at Clarks’ represent an exciting new chapter for us. It allows us to offer a broader shopping experience, while staying true to the heritage and trust we’ve built.”

Sam Tolhurst, co-founder at Apatchy London, said: “ We’re thrilled to partner with Clarks at such an exciting moment in their evolution. As a brand with over 200 years of heritage, their continued innovation in retail makes this a natural collaboration.”
