Clarks Tivoli Zip Sneaker - Blue - UK 4

While the authentic laces allow for some adjustment, the fit is generally standard. If you have particularly wide feet, it's recommended to try them on to ensure adequate comfort and space. Clarks often offers different width options, so check for availability.

Machine washing is generally not recommended as it can damage the materials, adhesives, and overall structure of the sneaker, particularly the moulded Contour Cushion footbed. Spot cleaning as outlined in the care section is the preferred method.

Yes, the Contour Cushion footbed is designed to be removable. This allows you to air it out, clean it separately, or replace it with a new one if needed, or with your own custom orthotics.

These sneakers are designed for comfort from the start due to the Contour Cushion footbed. However, like any new footwear, it's best to wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time to allow them to conform fully to your foot.

The EVA sole provides good traction for everyday surfaces. However, it is not specifically designed or rated as a slip-resistant sole for occupational use in greasy or wet industrial environments. Exercise caution on very slick or wet surfaces.

EVA stands for Ethylene-vinyl acetate. It's a lightweight, flexible, and durable material commonly used in shoe soles for its excellent cushioning and shock-absorbing properties.

Adjust the authentic laces. If too tight, loosen them across the instep. If too loose, pull them tighter for a more secure fit. Ensure you tie them securely but not uncomfortably.

Ensure the footbed is properly seated within the shoe, aligning with the toe and heel. If it's a new pair, allow some time for your foot to adapt to the moulded Contour Cushion. If persistent, you might consider if an alternative insole better suits your foot's specific needs.

Regularly air out your sneakers, especially after wear. Remove the footbeds and allow them to air out separately. You can also use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside the shoes overnight to absorb odors.

A common cause is moisture trapped inside the shoe or under the footbed. Remove the footbed and ensure both the inside of the shoe and the footbed are completely dry. If the squeak persists, it might be due to the outsole rubbing against certain surfaces.
