Clarks Laser Cross K - Black - Size: 13

Yes, the Clarks Laser Cross K is specifically designed as a smart, durable school shoe, suitable for daily wear from classroom to playground.

The dual rip-tape fastenings offer a secure, adjustable fit, making them easy for children to put on and take off independently, while ensuring the shoes stay snug during active play.

Microban® is an antimicrobial technology integrated into the shoe's lining. It works by inhibiting the growth of odor-causing bacteria, helping to keep the shoes and your child's feet feeling fresher for longer.

Absolutely. With their robust sole, enhanced grip, and football boot-inspired details, these shoes are well-suited for active play, including casual games of football, offering both support and durability.

While the leather uppers offer some natural resistance to light moisture, these shoes are not fully waterproof. For heavy rain or wet conditions, additional waterproofing sprays or appropriate waterproof footwear would be recommended.

The uppers are made from supple leather, the lining is textile, and the sole is rubber, providing a combination of durability, comfort, and grip.

Regular cleaning with a damp cloth after school is recommended to remove daily dirt. Leather polish should be applied periodically, perhaps once a week or every two weeks, to nourish and protect the leather, depending on wear.

Ensure shoes are fully aired out after each use, especially after intense activity. Remove them from school bags or confined spaces and place them in a well-ventilated area. If the odor persists, consider using an anti-bacterial shoe spray in addition to the Microban® lining.

Over time, lint, dirt, or debris can accumulate on the hook and loop fasteners. Use a stiff brush, comb, or even tweezers to carefully clean out any foreign material from both sides of the rip-tape. This should restore its adhesive strength.

Clean the shoes with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Once dry, apply a high-quality black leather polish or cream specifically designed for shoes. Use a soft cloth to buff the polish into the leather, then shine with a clean cloth to restore lustre. For deeper scuffs, a more intensive leather restorer might be needed.

Squeaking can sometimes come from the sole or inside the shoe. Try dusting the inside with a small amount of talcum powder, particularly under the insole, to reduce friction. If the squeaking comes from the sole, it might be due to moisture; ensure shoes are thoroughly dry.
