Lacing Your Shoes: Before your first wear, adjust the laces to fit your foot comfortably. Start from the lowest eyelets and work your way up, ensuring even tension. Tie them securely, but not too tightly, to allow for natural foot movement.
Initial Wear: Wear your new Clarkwood Lows for short periods initially to allow the leather to soften and conform to your foot shape. This 'break-in' period helps maximize long-term comfort.
These adult male shoes in UK size 8, Black SDE leather, are designed for standard foot widths. Their classic low-cut design and versatile black color make them suitable for pairing with a wide range of attire, from casual denim to business casual outfits. The timeless aesthetic ensures they fit well into various wardrobes.
Cleaning: For general cleaning, wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning or to address scuffs, use a specialized leather cleaner appropriate for SDE (Suede) or similar leather finishes. Always test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first.
Conditioning: To keep the leather supple and prevent cracking, apply a leather conditioner specifically formulated for SDE leather every few months. This helps to moisturize and protect the material.
Protection: Consider using a water and stain repellent spray designed for leather to protect your shoes from the elements and extend their lifespan.
Drying: If your shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage the leather.
Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
