FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
Yes, the Clarks Funny Dream features a distinctive square toe box, which is designed to provide extra width and space across the toe area, making them very suitable for individuals with wider feet.
How do I clean the blue leather upper?
To clean, gently wipe with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For more thorough cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner designed for smooth leather. Follow the cleaner's instructions carefully and condition the leather afterward.
What is 'Cushion Plus' technology?
Cushion Plus is Clarks' innovative technology featuring a cleverly concealed, high-rebound foam inlay inside the shoe. It's designed to absorb the impact of every step, providing supreme softness and lasting comfort throughout the day.
Can I replace the laces if they get worn out?
Yes, the laces are standard and can be replaced. Measure the length of your current laces to ensure you purchase a suitable replacement pair to maintain the shoe's aesthetic.
Are these shoes good for all-day wear?
Absolutely. The Clarks Funny Dream shoes are specifically designed with comfort in mind, incorporating Contoured Comfort and Cushion Plus technologies, along with a lightweight, flexible sole, making them an excellent choice for all-day wear and extended periods on your feet.
Is a break-in period required for these leather shoes?
While the shoes are comfortable from the start, a short break-in period is recommended for all leather footwear. Wearing them for shorter durations initially will allow the natural leather to soften and perfectly mold to the unique contours of your feet.
Troubleshooting
Laces frequently come undone.
Ensure you are using a secure knot, such as a double knot. Over time, new laces can sometimes be slippery; a slight roughening or treatment with a shoe lace wax can help.
Leather feels stiff or uncomfortable initially.
This is common with new leather shoes. Wear them for short periods around the house to break them in. You can also use a leather stretching spray or conditioner to help soften the material more quickly.
Squeaking sound when walking.
Often caused by friction between the insole and the shoe's interior. Try removing the insole, sprinkling a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch inside the shoe, then reinserting the insole. If the squeaking persists, check if it's the sole rubbing against the ground.
Scuffs or minor scratches on the leather.
For light scuffs, try gently rubbing with a soft cloth. For deeper scratches, a matching leather polish or cream can help to blend and minimize their appearance. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.

Product Care
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your Clarks Funny Dream shoes:
- Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. For more stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner appropriate for smooth leather. Apply sparingly and follow the product's instructions.
- Conditioning: Periodically apply a leather conditioner to keep the leather supple and prevent drying or cracking. This is especially important if the shoes are exposed to elements or stored for long periods.
- Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray to guard against water and stains.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
- Avoid Over-wetting: While leather can withstand some moisture, avoid soaking the shoes. If they get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
