Nalle Zen - Clarks - Silver - Suede - UK 5

Clarks shoes are generally designed to be true to size. For the most accurate fit, we recommend consulting the Clarks official sizing guide.

While the rubber sole provides good grip, the suede and nubuck upper is best protected from heavy rain to prevent water damage and staining. We recommend using a water-repellent spray designed specifically for suede/nubuck materials.

Gently wipe any metallic parts with a soft, dry, or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which could damage the finish.

The side zip on the Nalle Zen is fully functional. It is designed to allow for easy on and off, working in conjunction with the laces to provide a secure and customisable fit.

The Nalle Zen sneaker features a comfortable heel height of 20mm, providing a subtle lift.

Yes, the laces are replaceable. You can easily swap them out for new ones if they become worn or if you wish to customise the look of your sneakers. Check with Clarks for recommended lace styles and lengths.

Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly for a custom fit, neither too tight nor too loose. The padded toplines are designed for comfort, but a short break-in period may be needed. Also, check that your socks are not too thick or thin, affecting the fit.

Use a dedicated suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, apply a suede cleaner according to its instructions. Consider applying a suede protector spray regularly to repel dirt and water.

Occasionally, a zip may need lubrication. You can apply a small amount of graphite from a pencil lead or a purpose-made zip lubricant to the teeth and gently work the zip up and down. Ensure no fabric is caught in the mechanism.

Inspect the rubber sole for embedded debris like small stones or dirt, and carefully remove them. Clean the sole with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove any residue that might be affecting traction. Ensure the sole is completely dry before wearing.
