FAQs
Are the Clarks Shaya Tess shoes true to size?
Yes, these shoes are designed with a standard width fit and generally run true to size. We recommend purchasing your usual size.
Can I remove the insoles to use my own orthotics?
Absolutely. The Clarks Shaya Tess features removable Contour Cushion footbeds, allowing you to easily insert your preferred custom orthotics for personalized comfort and support.
How high is the heel?
The Clarks Shaya Tess features a comfortable and supportive block heel with a height of 5.5cm (approximately 2.17 inches).
What material is the sole made from?
The sole of the Clarks Shaya Tess is made from a durable man-made material, designed to provide good traction and longevity.
Are these shoes suitable for all-day wear?
Yes, with their premium leather uppers, supportive block heel, and especially the removable Contour Cushion footbeds, the Clarks Shaya Tess are engineered for enhanced comfort during prolonged periods of standing or walking.
How should I clean the leather uppers?
For cleaning, gently wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt. For deeper cleaning and to maintain the leather's suppleness, use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner. Always test products on an inconspicuous area first.
Are the Clarks Shaya Tess waterproof?
Info needed: As they are crafted from premium leather, the shoes are not inherently waterproof. While they offer some resistance to light moisture, we recommend applying a leather protector spray for enhanced water resistance if needed, and avoiding heavy rain.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable initially.
Leather shoes often require a short break-in period. Wear them for shorter durations at first. Ensure you have the correct size; a standard width fit should provide ample room. The removable footbeds can also be temporarily removed to create more space.
Leather uppers appear dull or scuffed.
Clean the leather thoroughly with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt. Apply a suitable black leather conditioner or polish to restore shine and cover minor scuffs. Buff gently with a clean, dry cloth.
Footbeds feel less cushioned over time.
The Contour Cushion footbeds are designed for long-lasting comfort. If they feel compressed, remove them and allow them to air out. If significant wear is evident, consider replacing them with new insoles or custom orthotics, taking advantage of their removable feature.
Slipping on certain surfaces.
The shoes have a man-made sole designed for general traction. However, on highly wet or polished surfaces, exercise caution. Inspect the sole for excessive wear, which can reduce grip. If needed, a cobbler can add an extra grip pad to the sole.

Care Instructions
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your Clarks Shaya Tess shoes:
- Leather Uppers: Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning and conditioning, use a high-quality leather cleaner and conditioner suitable for black leather. Always follow the product instructions. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water.
- Microfibre Lining: The interior lining can be gently wiped with a slightly damp cloth if needed. Ensure shoes are thoroughly air-dried afterward.
- Man-Made Sole: Wipe the sole clean with a damp cloth. Check for any embedded debris that could affect traction.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
- Drying: If shoes become wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the leather.
