Clarks Launch 'Every Shoe Tells A Story' Facebook Competition

MANCHESTER, England, September 9, 2010 - From beautiful designer heels to battered old trainers - what story do
your shoes tell?

Clarks invites you to share the story behind your favourite pair of shoes
to be in with a chance of winning a GBP3,000 holiday of a lifetime or one of
7 free pairs of shoes given away weekly for six weeks!

During the Facebook competition "Every shoe tells a story" the judges
will pick their 7 favourite stories each week to win a free pair of shoes. In
addition, stories can be voted on by the public and in order to win the grand
prize the story must make the top 10 finalists at the end of the competition.
The judges will choose the winner of a GBP3000 Trailfinders Gift Card from
these finalists - so make sure you tell all your friends to vote!

We believe in the transformational power of shoes, which is why we put so
much care into every pair. Shoes can change the way you look and feel -
whether it's giving you the confidence to ace that interview, or helping you
dress to impress on that nerve-wracking first date.

Shoes are one of the most personal items of clothing we can buy, moulding
themselves to our feet and carrying us through good and bad; every shoe
really does have a story and we would love to hear yours as part of our Stand
Tall Walk Clarks campaign.

The competition launches on 7th September and runs for 6 weeks - to enter
simply visit www.facebook.com/clarks.shoes?v=app_125751337471199 and
upload a picture of you and your shoes with a sentence or two about their
story and how they make you feel.

Submission and public voting will be open from 8th September to 18th
October; the grand prize will be announced on 27th October.
