FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The Calla Rose court shoes feature a standard fit. If you typically require a wider fit, it may be worth trying them on to assess comfort, as the leather can offer some flexibility.
How should I clean the textured finish?
The textured finish can be cleaned gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive materials or harsh cleaning agents that could damage the texture.
Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?
While the leather upper can be treated with a waterproof spray, these shoes are best suited for dry conditions. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain may damage the leather and sole.
What type of socks or hosiery are best with these shoes?
These court shoes can be worn with thin, sheer hosiery, low-cut ankle socks, or barefoot, depending on personal preference and the occasion.
How do I ensure the correct size?
Refer to the size guide provided by Clarks and measure your foot length from heel to toe. Considering the pointed toe box, some prefer to size up if between sizes, though the leather will adapt.
What is the heel height?
The product information does not specify the exact heel height, but typical court shoes offer a low to mid-height heel suitable for all-day wear.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel a bit stiff on first wear.
Leather shoes often require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations initially, gradually increasing wear time. Walking around the house can help them mold to your feet.
Leather appears dry or scuffed.
Apply a suitable leather conditioner to restore moisture and flexibility. For scuffs, use a matching colored shoe polish after conditioning, buffing gently.
Slight discoloration of shoe.
Ensure you are not exposing the shoes to excessive direct sunlight or harsh chemicals. Clean with a damp cloth and allow to dry naturally.
