FAQs
Are these flats suitable for all-day wear?
Yes, the Fawna Lily Ballet Flats feature signature underfoot cushioning and sleek leather linings designed to provide comfort for extended periods, making them ideal for all-day wear, even barefoot.
Can I wear these flats in the rain?
While the rubber outsole offers durability, the leather upper is not waterproof. It is best to avoid heavy rain to protect the leather. If they do get wet, follow the drying instructions in the care section.
How do I determine the correct size?
These flats are sized in UK women's sizing. Clarks generally runs true to size. If you are unsure, it is recommended to measure your foot and consult a Clarks sizing guide.
Do these flats offer arch support?
The Fawna Lily Ballet Flat features signature underfoot cushioning for comfort. However, as a classic ballet flat design, it offers minimal inherent arch support compared to athletic footwear. > Info needed: Specific arch support details if available.
What is the heel height of these flats?
The Fawna Lily Ballet Flat has a comfortable and practical heel height of 1.5cm.
Is the bow decorative or adjustable?
The bow on the Fawna Lily Ballet Flat is a subtle, decorative detail, contributing to its classic aesthetic. It is not adjustable.
Troubleshooting
Leather appears dull or dry.
Clean the leather with a soft, damp cloth, then apply a high-quality leather conditioner. Polish gently with a dry cloth to restore shine.
Flats feel tight or uncomfortable initially.
Leather shoes often require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially. If persistent, ensure you have the correct size; consult a sizing guide if unsure.
Unpleasant odor when worn barefoot.
Allow the flats to air out completely after each wear. Consider using odor-absorbing insoles or a small amount of foot powder before wearing.
Scuff marks on the leather.
For light scuffs, a damp cloth might suffice. For deeper marks, use a leather cream or balm in a matching color, applying sparingly and buffing gently.
Slipping on smooth surfaces.
While the rubber outsole provides good grip, extreme smooth or wet surfaces can still be challenging. Ensure the outsoles are clean; excessive wear may reduce traction.

Care Instructions
To ensure your Fawna Lily Ballet Flats remain in excellent condition, proper care is essential:
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the leather upper with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For more stubborn marks, use a specialized leather cleaner according to product instructions.
- Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner every few months to keep the leather soft, supple, and prevent drying or cracking. This is particularly important for the sleek leather linings to maintain comfort.
- Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray to guard against water and stains. While the rubber outsole provides some grip, leather is not waterproof.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
- Outsole Care: Periodically check the rubber outsole for any debris and clean as needed to maintain traction.
