FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
While the leather offers some protection against light moisture, they are not classified as waterproof. It is best to avoid deep puddles.
Can these be worn for school uniforms?
Yes, the clean black profile of the Astrol Orin is highly suitable for most school uniform policies.
How do I measure for the correct size?
We recommend visiting a Clarks fitting service or using a standard home measure kit to ensure an accurate UK sizing match.
What is the best way to clean the inside?
For the textile lining, use a slightly damp cloth with mild soap. Ensure the interior is completely dry before wearing again.
Does the zip come with a protective cover?
The boots are designed with a smooth internal construction to minimize irritation during movement.
Troubleshooting
Zip becomes difficult to pull up or down
Check the zipper track for trapped fabric or debris. If clear, you can lightly rub a graphite pencil tip along the teeth to act as a dry lubricant.
Scuff marks on the black leather
Use a black shoe polish or a dedicated leather cream to touch up scuffed areas and restore the uniform finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting the right fit is crucial for growing feet; ensure a standard thumb-width of room in the toe area to allow for natural movement. To keep these leather boots in top condition, wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth after school to remove dust or mud. If the leather begins to look dry, apply a high-quality, clear leather cream to maintain suppleness. Avoid soaking the boots in water; if they get caught in a heavy rain shower, stuff them with newspaper and allow them to air dry slowly away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the leather from cracking.
