FAQs
What material is the upper of the Clarks Funny Dream Oxford?
The upper of this specific Clarks Funny Dream Oxford variant is made from high-quality light pink suede, complemented by a breathable leather sock and lining for internal comfort.

Clarks shoes are often designed with comfort in mind, but specific width information is not provided. It's recommended to try them on for the best fit or consult Clarks' sizing guide for details on available widths for the Funny Dream series. Info needed: [specific width availability]
How do I clean light pink suede?
To clean light pink suede, use a soft-bristled suede brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner following the product's instructions. Always test on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid water for general cleaning.
Can I wear these shoes in rainy weather?
While the sole offers good grip, the suede upper is not naturally water-resistant. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain. For light drizzle, a good quality suede protector spray can offer some resistance, but always allow them to dry naturally if they get wet.
What makes the 'Funny Dream' design unique?
The 'Funny Dream' design is characterized by its vintage inspiration combined with contemporary elements like handcrafted stitched seams, chunky Clarks-branded eyelet lacing, and distinctive lightweight curvy wedge soles, offering a unique blend of style and comfort.
Is the sole durable?
Yes, the sole is made from grippy and flexible TPR (Thermoplastic Rubber), known for its durability, traction, and ability to withstand daily wear while providing comfort and flexibility.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears matted or flattened.
Gently brush the suede with a specialized suede brush in short, light strokes to lift the nap and restore its texture. Brushing in one direction can help.
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
Adjust the chunky Clarks-branded eyelet lacing. Ensure laces are evenly tightened or loosened across the foot for optimal comfort and fit. Consider wearing them around the house to allow the materials to conform to your foot shape.
Unpleasant odor develops inside the shoes.
The breathable leather sock and lining help prevent odor, but if it occurs, remove insoles (if removable) and air them out. Use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors. Ensure shoes are completely dry after wear.

Care Instructions for Suede & Leather Components
Maintaining the appearance and longevity of your Clarks Funny Dream Oxford involves specific care for its suede upper and leather lining.
- Initial Protection: Before first wear, consider applying a suede protector spray to help repel water and stains.
- Regular Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently remove dirt and dust. Brush in one direction to maintain the nap of the suede.
- Spot Cleaning: For minor stains on suede, use a specialized suede eraser. For tougher stains, a suede cleaner solution applied with a clean cloth can be effective. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.

- Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
