I wear Clarks all the time and the new ones are light weight and have good arches. It's good to have good arch support if you are standing for long periods of time on your feet. I work out and buy Nike Air Running Shoes for their great support. I have no back pain wearing these brands and if you need further support may I suggest an arched orthotic for your shoes and I wear Powerstep which were around $30. If you go with the orthotic in your shoe, make sure you wear the orthotic to fit in your new shoes. I sure hope this helps.
