FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The Funny Dream typically offers a standard fit, but the leather upper does have natural give that accommodates minor width variations over time.

Can I replace the insoles?

The interior is designed for a specific fit; while you can use thin orthotics, the factory lining is intended to be worn as is.

Are these shoes waterproof?

The shoes are made of leather and are water-resistant, but they should not be submerged in water or used as rain boots.

How do I clean the purple leather?

Gently wipe with a soft, damp cloth and use a dedicated leather cleaner or conditioner meant for colored leathers.

Is the wedge sole slippery?

No, the TPR (Thermoplastic Rubber) outsole is specifically engineered to provide grip and flexibility.

What is the primary material used?

The upper is constructed from premium leather, and the sole is made from a lightweight, durable TPR compound.

Troubleshooting

Leather feels stiff initially

Apply a leather conditioner to soften the material and wear them for short periods to break them in gradually.

Laces coming undone

Use a double knot or replace with slightly shorter laces if the factory laces are too slippery.

Minor scuffs on the leather

Use a matching purple polish or a neutral leather cream to buff out surface-level marks.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent arch and heel support for all-day wear
  • High-quality leather construction ensures longevity
  • Lightweight design prevents fatigue during walking
  • Distinctive vintage-inspired styling
  • Flexible sole accommodates natural foot movement

Cons

  • Purple colorway is less versatile than standard neutrals
  • Wedge design may take time for flat-foot users to adjust to
  • Lace-up closure requires more time than slip-on alternatives

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Clarks Funny Dream shoes maintain their appearance and structure:

  1. Breaking In: Wear them for short durations indoors initially to allow the leather to mold to your foot shape.
  2. Compatibility: These shoes pair best with slim-fit denim, corduroys, or casual trousers that highlight the curvy wedge silhouette.
  3. Cleaning: Use a dry cloth to remove surface dirt. For the leather, apply a standard leather cream or conditioner periodically to prevent drying or cracking.
  4. Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the vibrancy of the purple leather finish.
