FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running or intense sports?
No, the Mayhill Lace trainers are specifically designed for casual everyday wear and comfort, not for high-impact activities, running, or intense sports.
How do I protect the suede from water and stains?
It is highly recommended to apply a quality suede protector spray before the first wear. Reapply periodically as directed by the product manufacturer to maintain protection.
Can I machine wash these trainers?
No, machine washing is not recommended for suede footwear. It can severely damage the material, alter its texture, and compromise the shoe's structure. Please follow the specific care instructions for suede cleaning.
What is the 'Contour Cushion footbed'?
The Contour Cushion footbed is a specialized, anatomically moulded insole engineered by Clarks. It provides plush, targeted support and cushioning, designed to maximize underfoot comfort throughout the day.
Do these shoes run true to size?
Clarks footwear generally aims for a true-to-size fit. However, individual foot shapes and preferences can vary. We recommend consulting the Clarks size guide or trying them on if possible for the best fit.
What does TR (thermoplastic rubber) sole mean?
TR is a common material for outsoles, known for being durable, flexible, and offering good grip. It contributes to the overall comfort and stability of the trainers for everyday walking.
Will the dusty pink color fade over time?
Like many colored suede products, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can potentially cause some color fading. Storing your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct light will help preserve their color.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dull or matted.
Gently brush the suede with a specialized suede brush. Brush in one direction to lift the nap and restore its texture and vibrancy.
Trainers feel too loose or too tight.
Adjust the laces. Ensure they are evenly tightened across your foot for a personalized and secure fit. Experiment with different lacing techniques if needed.
Sole feels slippery on certain surfaces.
While the TR sole offers good traction, be cautious on very wet, icy, or excessively smooth surfaces. Regularly check that the soles are clean of debris, which can reduce grip.
Foot odor develops after wear.
Allow the trainers to air out thoroughly after each use. Consider using odor-absorbing inserts or specialized footwear sprays. Wearing moisture-wicking socks can also help prevent odor buildup.
Suede has minor water marks or stains.
For water marks, dampen the entire affected area lightly with clean water, then blot with a clean cloth and allow to air dry. For stains, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner following product instructions.

Care Instructions for Suede
Suede requires specific attention to maintain its appearance. Following these steps will help prolong the life of your trainers:
- Protection: Before the first wear, apply a high-quality suede protector spray. This creates a barrier against water and stains. Reapply periodically as directed by the product.
- General Cleaning: For everyday dirt and dust, use a dedicated soft suede brush. Gently brush in one direction to remove debris and restore the nap of the suede.
- Spot Cleaning: For tougher marks or small stains, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner. Always test on an inconspicuous area first and follow the product's instructions.
- Drying: If your trainers get wet, stuff them with plain paper (like newspaper) to absorb moisture and help maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage the suede.
- Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb any residual moisture.
General Care Tips
- Avoid exposing the trainers to harsh chemicals or extreme temperatures.
- Inspect the laces periodically for wear and tear, and replace them if necessary to maintain a secure fit.
