The Clarks Keelan Flare Y school shoes are built to perform reliably throughout the school day. Their soft leather uppers mold to the foot over time, offering sustained comfort during lessons, break times, and extra-curricular activities. The flexible rubber soles provide excellent grip on various indoor and outdoor school surfaces, from classroom floors to playgrounds. The lace fastenings ensure a snug fit, which is crucial for preventing discomfort and blisters during extended wear. These shoes are best suited for daily school attendance, light recreational activities, and maintaining a smart appearance, providing a balance of comfort and resilience for active children.
Upon receiving your Keelan Flare Y shoes, simply loosen the laces, have your child slide their foot in, and then tighten the laces to achieve a comfortable, secure fit. Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between the longest toe and the end of the shoe for growth and comfort.
These black leather shoes are designed to comply with most school uniform regulations. They are suitable for general school wear, including classroom activities and light playground use. They may not be ideal for specialized sports or rugged outdoor pursuits that require dedicated athletic footwear.
Leather Uppers:
Daily Wipe Down: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe off dirt and dust after each wear.
Cleaning: For deeper cleaning, use a leather cleaner specifically designed for black leather. Apply with a soft cloth and follow product instructions.
Polishing: Apply black shoe polish regularly (weekly or bi-weekly depending on wear) to keep the leather nourished, protected, and looking smart. Buff with a clean cloth for a shine.
Drying: If wet, stuff the shoes with newspaper and let them air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators, which can crack leather.
Rubber Soles:
Cleaning: Wipe down with a damp cloth or use a soft brush to remove mud and debris from the treads.
General Advice:
Rotate shoes if possible to allow them to air out and extend their lifespan.
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
