FAQs

What type of leather is used in the Base London Clarence Brogue Shoe?

The shoe is crafted from smooth premium leather, chosen for its quality and appearance.

Is the insole removable?

The description mentions an Ortholite insole for cushioning, but it is not specified if it is removable. However, Ortholite insoles are known for their comfort and moisture-wicking properties.

How do I clean the black leather Clarence brogues?

Wipe with a soft, dry cloth for regular cleaning. Use a slightly damp cloth for tougher marks, followed by air drying. Apply a leather conditioner periodically and consider a waterproof spray.

Are these shoes suitable for formal events?

The Clarence Brogue is designed for versatile smart-casual wear. While stylish, they may not be appropriate for strictly formal events like black-tie occasions.

What is the fit like?

The shoes are made from leather which tends to mold to the foot over time, offering a personalized fit. It is recommended to choose your standard shoe size.

Can these shoes be resoled?

While not explicitly stated, many high-quality leather shoes like these are designed to be resoled by a professional cobbler, extending their lifespan.

What occasions are these shoes best suited for?

They are ideal for smart-casual settings, including office wear, business casual meetings, social gatherings, and smart weekend attire.

Troubleshooting

Leather appears dry or dull

Apply a suitable leather conditioner to restore moisture and shine. Ensure you follow the product instructions.

Shoes feel tight after initial wear

Wear the shoes around the house for short periods to allow them to mold to your feet. Using shoe trees can also help stretch them slightly.

Scuff marks on the leather

For minor scuffs, try using a matching colored shoe polish or a leather repair crayon. For deeper marks, professional refurbishment may be necessary.

Soles show signs of wear

Consult a cobbler for sole repair or replacement to extend the life of the shoes. Regular cleaning of the soles can also prevent excessive wear.
