FAQs
Are these flats suitable for all-day wear?
Yes, the Clarks Fawna Lily Ballet Flats feature signature underfoot cushioning and additional heel padding specifically designed to provide comfort for extended periods, even when worn barefoot.
Can I wear these in the rain?
While the leather offers some natural resistance, it is best to avoid heavy rain and prolonged exposure to moisture to protect the material and maintain the shoe's appearance. If they get wet, let them air dry naturally.
How do I clean the leather?
Gently wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning or conditioning, use a reputable leather cleaner and conditioner following the product's instructions.
Do these flats offer arch support?
The Fawna Lily Ballet Flats incorporate Clarks' signature underfoot cushioning for general comfort. For specific or significant arch support needs, you may want to consult an orthotic specialist.
What is the sole made of?
The sole is made from resin rubber, which provides good durability and reliable grip on various surfaces.
Is this specific model available in wide fit?
This particular variant (Silver Leather, UK 5) is a standard fit. Clarks does offer 'Wide Fit' options for some styles within the Fawna Lily range, so you may check for those if you require a wider fit.
Troubleshooting
Leather appears dull or dry.
Apply a high-quality leather conditioner as part of your regular care routine. This will restore moisture and sheen to the material.
Flats feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.
Leather shoes often require a 'break-in' period. Wear your flats for short periods around the house to allow the leather to soften and mold to your feet.
Flats develop an odor when worn barefoot.
Allow your flats to air out thoroughly after each wear. You can also use shoe deodorizers or lightly sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors.
Sole seems to lose grip on certain surfaces.
Ensure the resin rubber sole is clean, as dirt or debris can reduce traction. For persistent issues, a cobbler may be able to add additional non-slip material if necessary.

Care Instructions for Your Leather Flats
To ensure the longevity and beauty of your leather Fawna Lily Ballet Flats, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the flats with a soft, damp cloth to remove any surface dirt or dust. For more stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner according to its instructions.
- Conditioning: Regularly apply a good quality leather conditioner to keep the leather supple and prevent it from drying out or cracking. This also helps maintain its sleek appearance.
- Protection: Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, extreme heat, or excessive moisture. If they do get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
- Storage: When not in use, store your flats in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their original shape and absorb moisture.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use harsh detergents, solvents, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the leather.
