FAQs

What material is the upper of the Clarks Polden Moc made from?

The upper of this specific Clarks Polden Moc variant is crafted from breathable white canvas, known for its comfort and airy feel.

Is the footbed removable in these shoes?

Yes, the Clarks Polden Moc features a removable Contour Cushion footbed, allowing for personalized comfort, easy cleaning, or the insertion of custom orthotics.

How should I clean my white canvas Polden Mocs?

For best results, spot clean the canvas with a soft cloth, mild soap, and cool water. Gently rub and then blot dry. Allow the shoes to air dry thoroughly away from direct heat or sunlight.

What does 'C360 EVA sole' mean?

The C360 EVA sole refers to an ultra-soft, lightweight, and cushioned Ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) material used for the sole. It provides excellent comfort, flexibility, and shock absorption, with a 4cm height.

Are these shoes true to size?

Clarks Polden Moc shoes are designed with a regular fit. We recommend ordering your usual UK shoe size (in this case, UK 9.5) for the best fit.

Can I wear these shoes for formal events?

These shoes are best suited for smart-casual and relaxed environments. They perfectly complement outfits like chinos, jeans, and shorts, but are not intended for formal business or evening attire.

Troubleshooting

Foot discomfort after long wear

Ensure the tone-on-tone cotton laces are adjusted correctly – not too tight, not too loose. The removable Contour Cushion footbed can be taken out and aired, or you can replace it with a custom orthotic if you require specific arch support.

Canvas appears dirty or stained

Gently spot clean the canvas upper with a soft brush or cloth using a small amount of mild soap diluted in cool water. Rub gently and then blot dry. Allow to air dry thoroughly away from direct sunlight. Avoid machine washing.

Squeaking sound from the sole

This can sometimes occur with new shoes. Try applying a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch underneath the removable Contour Cushion footbed or inside the shoe's sole to reduce friction and eliminate the squeak.

Laces constantly untying

Ensure you are using a secure lacing knot. If the laces are worn, consider replacing them with new tone-on-tone cotton laces of a similar length and material.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional Comfort: The combination of the removable Contour Cushion footbed and the ultra-soft C360 EVA sole provides all-day cushioning and support.
  • Breathable Material: Canvas upper promotes air circulation, making them ideal for warmer weather and extended wear.
  • Versatile Smart-Casual Styling: Effortlessly upgrades various outfits, suitable for a range of informal to semi-formal occasions.
  • Lightweight Construction: The EVA sole contributes to a very light shoe, reducing foot fatigue.
  • Heritage Aesthetic: The distinctive design and archival details offer a unique and stylish look.

Cons

  • Canvas Care: The canvas material may be more susceptible to stains and requires more frequent cleaning compared to leather or suede options.
  • Limited Formality: Best suited for smart-casual and casual settings; not appropriate for formal business or evening events.

  • Trousers: Chinos, linen trousers, dark-wash jeans.

  • Shirts: Polo shirts, casual button-downs, t-shirts, or light sweaters.

They are ideal for daily wear, weekend activities, casual office settings, and travel.

Care Instructions

Maintaining your white canvas Polden Mocs will ensure their longevity and appearance:

  1. Canvas Upper: For light dirt, brush off dry debris with a soft brush. For stains, gently spot clean the canvas using a soft cloth or sponge with a small amount of mild soap (like dish soap) diluted in cool water. Rub gently in small circles. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive scrubbing.
  2. Drying: After cleaning, blot with a clean towel and allow the shoes to air dry thoroughly away from direct sunlight or heat, which can yellow canvas or damage materials.
  3. Laces: The cotton laces can be hand washed separately with mild soap and water if they become dirty. Ensure they are completely dry before re-lacing.
  4. Sole: Wipe the C360 EVA sole clean with a damp cloth to remove dirt and grime. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  5. Footbed: The removable Contour Cushion footbed can be taken out and air-dried if it becomes damp or needs freshening.
