FAQs

What does the E-fit mean?

The E-fit indicates that the shoe is wider than a standard 'D' fit, providing more room in the forefoot area for enhanced comfort.

Are these shoes water-resistant?

While made of durable leather, they are not waterproof. We recommend using a protective leather spray to provide a basic barrier against light moisture.

Can I replace the insoles?

The Funny Dream series is generally designed for a fixed interior. While some custom orthotics might fit, check the depth before replacing the existing footbed.

Is the sole slippery?

The synthetic sole is designed for standard urban environments, providing adequate grip on dry pavement and indoor flooring.

How do I determine if UK size 8 is correct for me?

If you generally wear standard UK sizing, the Funny Dream should fit true to size. Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe.

Troubleshooting

Leather feels stiff upon first wear

Leather requires a brief 'break-in' period. Wear them for short durations indoors initially to allow the material to soften and conform to your foot shape.

Laces constantly coming untied

Use a double knot or replace the laces with slightly longer ones if you have high arches that require extra length to secure.

Scuff marks on the leather surface

Use a matching leather polish or cream to buff out minor scuffs and restore the uniform black color.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Clarks Funny Dream shoes last, proper care is essential. Since the upper is made of leather, avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain and mud to prevent staining. Clean the leather surface with a soft, dry cloth to remove loose dirt and use a high-quality leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple. For the best compatibility, wear these shoes with thin-to-medium weight cotton socks. When storing, keep the shoes in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from drying out or cracking.
