FAQs

How do I clean my Torhill Bee suede shoes?

To clean, gently brush with a suede brush to remove loose dirt. For stains, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner, following the product's instructions. Always allow them to air dry.

Are these shoes true to size?

Clarks shoes generally run true to size. We recommend ordering your usual UK shoe size for the best fit. If you are between sizes, consider trying the larger size.

Can I wear these shoes in the rain?

Suede is not ideal for wet conditions. We recommend avoiding heavy rain or snow to protect the material. Applying a waterproof spray specifically designed for suede can offer some protection against light moisture.

What type of socks should I wear with Torhill Bee shoes?

These shoes are versatile. You can wear them with no-show socks for a more minimalist look, or with crew socks in complementary colors for added style and comfort.

What is the material of the outsole?

The outsole is a bold, ribbed design inspired by our '90s 'Big Gripper' profile, made from a durable rubber compound for comfort and grip.

Do these shoes offer good arch support?

The Torhill Bee features a comfortable design that offers a good level of support for casual everyday wear. For specific arch support needs, you may consider adding custom insoles.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or matted.

Gently brush the suede with a specialized suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher spots, use a suede eraser before brushing.

Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable.

Ensure you have the correct size. Suede can stretch slightly with wear, but if discomfort persists, consider trying a different size. Wear them for short periods initially to break them in.

Laces constantly come undone.

Ensure you are tying your laces with a secure knot. A double knot can prevent them from loosening during activity. Replace worn laces if necessary.

Noticeable dirt or stain on the suede.

For small marks, use a suede eraser. For liquid stains, blot immediately with a clean cloth, then use a suede cleaner specifically designed for spot treatment. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.

Care: Maintaining Your Suede Shoes

Proper care is crucial for maintaining the premium look of your Torhill Bee suede shoes:

  1. Waterproofing: Apply a high-quality suede protector spray before first wear and periodically thereafter.
  2. Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to gently remove dirt and dust. For stains, use a suede eraser or a damp cloth with a small amount of suede cleaner.
  3. Drying: If shoes get wet, stuff them with paper to absorb moisture and let them air dry naturally away from direct heat.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to maintain their shape. Avoid direct sunlight which can fade the color.
  5. Avoid: Do not machine wash or submerge in water. Avoid harsh chemicals.
