FAQs
How often should I clean these leather trainers?
For daily wear, a quick wipe with a damp cloth after each use is beneficial. A deeper clean and conditioning should be done every few weeks or once a month, depending on how often you wear them and the conditions.
Can I wear these trainers in the rain?
While premium leather offers some natural resistance, these trainers are not fully waterproof. It's recommended to apply a leather-specific water and stain protector before wearing them in wet conditions and to avoid heavy rain to prevent water damage.
Do these trainers run true to size?
Clarks generally runs true to size. For this UK size 12 model, customers typically find the fit consistent with their usual UK shoe size. However, individual foot shapes vary.
What is the best way to store these trainers when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help absorb moisture and maintain the shoe's original shape, preventing creasing in the leather.
Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?
The product description does not specify a wide fit. Other variants mention 'Standard Fit', implying this model is likely a standard fit. If you typically require wide-fit footwear, these may feel snug. Info needed: specific width fitting.
How do I deal with squeaky soles?
Squeaking can sometimes occur due to friction between parts of the shoe or between the sole and the surface. Try applying a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch under the insole if the squeak is internal, or checking for any loose parts.
Can I use regular shoe polish on these?
For black leather, a good quality black shoe polish can be used. Ensure it's suitable for 'premium leather' and apply sparingly after cleaning and conditioning. Always buff to a shine with a clean cloth.
Troubleshooting
Leather appears dull or dry
Clean the trainers thoroughly, then apply a good quality leather conditioner to restore moisture and shine.
Scuffs or minor scratches on the leather
Gently rub the affected area with a soft cloth and a small amount of leather balm or polish matching the shoe's color. For deep scratches, consult a professional.
Trainers feel stiff or uncomfortable
Ensure they are properly laced, and allow for a natural break-in period. Wear them for shorter durations initially to help the leather mold to your feet.
Unpleasant odor develops
Ensure trainers are completely dry after wear. Use shoe deodorizers or place baking soda packets inside overnight. Rotate your footwear to allow them to air out.
Slipping on smooth surfaces
Check the sole for wear. If the treads are worn smooth, consider if conditions are appropriate or if resoling is an option (though less common for trainers). Info needed: sole type/material.
