FAQs

How do I clean the leopard print suede?

Use a soft suede brush to remove dirt. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner and protector spray is recommended. Always allow them to dry naturally.

Are these shoes suitable for all-day wear?

Yes, the lightweight curvy wedge sole and breathable leather sock/lining are designed for everyday comfort, making them suitable for extended wear.

What is the heel height of the Funny Dream shoe?

The heel height is 30mm, offering a comfortable and subtle lift.

Can I wear these shoes in the rain?

It is not recommended to wear suede shoes in heavy rain or wet conditions, as water can stain or damage the material. Consider using a suede protector spray for light moisture resistance.

What does 'TPR outsole' mean?

TPR stands for Thermoplastic Rubber. It's a material known for being lightweight, flexible, and having good grip, contributing to the shoe's comfort and stability.

Are the sizes true to standard UK shoe sizing?

Clarks generally adheres to standard UK sizing. If you are typically a UK 5, this size should fit as expected. Info needed: Consult a Clarks size guide for specific measurements if unsure.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dirty or stained

Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, apply a suede cleaner according to product instructions, then use the brush to restore the nap.

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable initially

Wear them for short periods around the house to gently break them in. The leather lining and suede upper will soften and conform to your foot over time.

Shoes feel slippery on certain surfaces

Ensure the TPR outsole is clean and dry. While grippy, extreme wet or smooth surfaces can still reduce traction. Clean the outsole periodically to remove any build-up that might reduce grip.

Laces come undone frequently

Ensure you are tying the laces securely. Consider using a double knot if needed, or re-lacing to ensure even tension across the eyelets.

Loss of shoe shape during storage

Stuff the shoes with acid-free tissue paper or use shoe trees when not in use to help maintain their original shape, especially for the suede upper.

These shoes require no special setup; simply slip them on and adjust the laces for a secure, comfortable fit. They are compatible with most casual attire, from denim to relaxed dresses. To maintain the premium leopard print suede upper, it's crucial to follow specific care guidelines. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions, as water can stain or damage suede. For routine cleaning, use a soft suede brush to gently remove dirt and dust. For deeper cleaning or stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and protector spray to help repel water and prevent future stains. Always allow suede to dry naturally away from direct heat. Store the shoes in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees or tissue paper to help maintain their shape.
