FAQs

This specific variant features an upper crafted from high-quality suede, providing a soft texture and distinctive look. The original description may refer to the broader Funny Dream series which can come in various materials, but for this variant, it's suede.

How should I clean the suede on these shoes?

Can I wear these shoes in rainy weather?

They feature a lightweight curvy wedge sole made from EVA (Ethylene-vinyl acetate), which is known for its excellent cushioning, flexibility, and shock-absorbing properties, contributing to overall comfort.

The Clarks Funny Dream shoes are highly versatile, suitable for a wide range of occasions including casual outings, daily wear, and even smart-casual or business-casual environments, thanks to their blend of classic comfort and contemporary design.

Are there other color or material options available in the Funny Dream series?

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or has visible dirt/scuffs.

Gently brush the suede with a dedicated suede brush to remove surface dirt and restore the nap. For stubborn marks, use a suede eraser. Apply a protective spray after cleaning to help prevent future issues and maintain the suede's condition.

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable initially.

As with many new shoes, a short break-in period may be necessary. Wear them for shorter periods initially to allow the material to conform to your feet. Ensure you have the correct size; if they pinch significantly, re-check your size using a Clarks sizing guide.

My shoes got wet, and the suede looks discolored.

Stuff the shoes with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry completely at room temperature, away from direct heat. Once dry, gently brush the suede to restore its texture and color. Apply a waterproof spray for future protection against moisture.

Care: This specific variant is made from suede, which requires particular care to maintain its appearance and longevity:1. Protection: Before first wear, and periodically thereafter, treat the suede with a protective spray designed specifically for suede and nubuck. This helps repel water and stains.2. Cleaning: For surface dirt, use a soft suede brush to gently brush in one direction to remove dust and restore the nap. For tougher marks, a specialized suede eraser can be effective.3. Stains: Address stains immediately. Dab, do not rub, with a clean cloth. For oil-based stains, a small amount of cornstarch can absorb the oil before brushing.4. Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them loosely with paper to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape, then allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Do not use a hairdryer or place them on a radiator, as this can cause damage to the suede.5. Storage: Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag or box, to protect them from dust and direct sunlight.
