The Clarks Tapa Pure Y school shoes are built to meet the demands of a busy school day. The lightweight, flexible sole allows children to move freely, whether walking to classes, playing during breaks, or participating in school activities, without feeling weighed down. The low heel design contributes to natural posture and reduces strain, making them comfortable for all-day wear. The Microban® odour control lining is a significant benefit, actively working to inhibit the growth of odour-causing bacteria, which is particularly useful for shoes worn for many hours daily. This helps maintain a fresh environment inside the shoe, contributing to foot hygiene. The lace fastenings are crucial for ensuring a secure and personalized fit, adapting to different foot widths and preventing slippage, which is vital for safety and comfort. The classic brogue styling with perforated details, available in patent or supple leather, ensures these shoes meet most school uniform requirements while offering a smart, polished look. Their robust construction is designed to withstand the wear and tear of daily school life.
Your Clarks Tapa Pure Y shoes come ready to wear. Simply adjust the lace fastenings to achieve a comfortable and secure fit for your foot. Ensure the laces are tied firmly but not too tightly to allow for natural foot movement throughout the day.
These shoes are primarily designed for school wear and are compatible with most school uniform policies due to their classic black brogue style. They are suitable for children and young adults requiring a durable and smart shoe for daily educational environments.
Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your Tapa Pure Y shoes:
Cleaning Uppers:
For patent leather: Wipe clean with a damp cloth to remove dirt and scuffs. For extra shine, use a patent leather cleaner specifically designed for glossy finishes.
For supple leather: Gently wipe with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning and to maintain leather's suppleness, use a quality leather cleaner and conditioner. Apply a black shoe polish regularly to cover scuffs and restore shine.
Drying: If shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources.
Odour Control: While Microban® helps, occasional airing out of the shoes is still recommended. Ensure socks are changed daily to maintain foot hygiene.
Sole Care: Regularly check the rubber sole for embedded stones or debris and remove them to prevent damage to the sole and floors.
Lace Care: Inspect laces periodically for wear and tear. Replace them if they become frayed or damaged to maintain a secure fit.
