FAQs

How do I clean the blue nubuck material?

Use a specialized nubuck brush to gently remove loose dirt and restore the nap. For tougher spots, a nubuck eraser or cleaner can be applied, following the product's instructions. Always use a protective spray regularly.

Are these shoes waterproof?

No, the Clarks Funny Dream Blue Nubuck shoes are not waterproof. Nubuck is absorbent. We recommend applying a protective spray to help repel water and avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions.

Can I replace the padded footbed?

The padded footbed in these shoes is integrated with the Cushion Soft technology for optimal comfort. While not designed for easy removal, custom orthotics may fit depending on their bulk and the available space within the shoe.

How long does it take to break in these shoes?

Thanks to the Cushion Plus and Contoured Comfort technologies, these shoes generally require minimal break-in time. Most users find them comfortable from the first wear, but wearing them for short periods initially can help them conform perfectly to your feet.

What kind of socks should I wear with these shoes?

For optimal comfort and breathability, we recommend wearing cotton or a blend of moisture-wicking socks. This will help keep your feet dry and comfortable throughout the day.

Troubleshooting

Nubuck appears dirty or stained easily.

Nubuck is prone to absorbing liquids and attracting dust. Regularly use a nubuck brush to remove surface dirt. For stains, apply a specialized nubuck cleaner or eraser. Always use a protective spray before wear.

Shoes feel less supportive or cushioned over time.

While Clarks' technologies offer lasting comfort, all footwear components have a lifespan. Ensure you've chosen the correct size for optimal support. If significant wear is visible in the sole or footbed, consider replacing them or consulting a shoe care professional.

Laces frequently come undone.

Ensure the laces are tied securely using a double knot if necessary. Inspect laces for fraying or damage; replace them if worn out to maintain a secure fit.

Feet feel hot or sweaty after prolonged wear.

Although nubuck is breathable, ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. Cotton or moisture-wicking socks can help manage foot temperature and moisture. Allow shoes to air out between wears.

Care Instructions for Nubuck Leather

Nubuck is a delicate material that requires specific care to maintain its appearance and longevity:

  1. Initial Protection: Before first wear, apply a high-quality nubuck and suede protector spray to help repel water and stains. Repeat periodically as per product instructions.
  2. Regular Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush (a dedicated nubuck brush is ideal) to gently remove surface dirt and restore the nap of the material. Brush in one direction to keep the texture uniform.
  3. Spot Cleaning: For more stubborn marks, use a specialized nubuck cleaner or eraser. Apply sparingly and follow the product's instructions carefully. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
  4. Avoid Water: Nubuck is not waterproof. Avoid wearing these shoes in heavy rain or wet conditions. If they do get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources.
  5. Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
