We investigate modifications to the $k_\perp$-clustering jet algorithm whichpreserve the advantages of the original Durham algorithm while reducingnon-perturbative corrections and providing better resolution of jetsubstructure. We find that a simple change in the sequence of clustering(combining smaller-angle pairs first), together with the `freezing' of softresolved jets, has beneficial effects.
