FAQs
How do I clean the black leather on these shoes?
Gently wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner. Afterwards, apply a leather conditioner to keep the material supple and a black polish to maintain its finish.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The Clarks Funny Dream shoes come in a standard D width fitting. They may not be suitable for individuals who typically require a wide-fit shoe.
What is the heel height of these shoes?
These shoes feature a 30mm heel height, provided by the lightweight curvy wedge sole.
What material is the outsole made from?
The outsole is made from grippy and flexible TPR (Thermoplastic Rubber), designed for good traction and durability.
Are these shoes good for all-day wear?
Yes, their lightweight curvy wedge sole and breathable leather sock and lining are designed to provide everyday comfort, making them suitable for extended wear.
Is there a break-in period for the leather?
Like most quality leather footwear, these shoes may require a short break-in period for the leather to soften and conform perfectly to the shape of your feet.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure the laces are not pulled too tightly. Leather shoes often require a short break-in period to mold to your foot shape. If discomfort persists, verify you have the correct size and width, as these are a standard D fitting.
Leather appears dull or scuffed.
Clean the leather with a soft, damp cloth, then apply a suitable leather conditioner. For scuffs, use a black leather polish to restore the finish.
Soles feel slippery.
Clean the TPR outsole with a brush and water to remove any accumulated dirt or debris that might be reducing grip. Ensure they are fully dry before wearing.
Laces frequently come untied.
Ensure you are using a double knot. If the laces are worn, consider replacing them with new, high-quality laces.

Care:
- Cleaning: For general dirt, wipe the leather gently with a soft, damp cloth. For more stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner according to its instructions.
