FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Clarks Originals generally run true to size. This specific pair is a UK 7. We recommend referring to standard UK sizing charts or trying them on to ensure the best fit.

How do I clean the suede upper?

For routine cleaning, use a suede brush to remove dirt and restore the nap. For spots, a suede eraser or specialized suede cleaning kit is recommended. Always apply a protector spray before first wear.

Can I wear these in the rain?

Suede is not naturally water-resistant. We strongly advise against wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions. If they do get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat.

What is a crepe sole?

A crepe sole is made from natural coagulated latex rubber. It's known for its exceptional cushioning, flexibility, and comfort. It provides good grip but can be susceptible to attracting dirt.

What occasions are these shoes suitable for?

The Desert Trek is highly versatile, suitable for both casual wear (e.g., jeans, chinos) and smart-casual or semi-formal occasions (e.g., tailored trousers, blazers).

How can I maintain the shape of my shoes?

To help maintain their shape and absorb moisture, consider using shoe trees when not wearing them, especially after cleaning or exposure to moisture.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or dirty

Use a specialized suede brush to gently rub away surface dirt and lift the nap. For tougher spots, a suede eraser can be effective.

Water stains on suede

If minor, allow to dry naturally, then gently brush. For more significant stains, a professional suede cleaner may be required. Prevention with a protector spray is key.

Crepe sole is attracting dirt or feeling sticky

Gently wipe the sole with a slightly damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For more persistent stickiness, some users carefully rub the sole with a clean, dry cloth or very fine sandpaper (use caution and test in an inconspicuous area first) to renew the surface.

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable initially

Suede naturally molds to your foot over time. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in. Ensure lacing is not excessively tight.
