Clarks Newford Lace Derby Shoes - Black - 8

While the leather offers some natural protection against light splashes, they are not waterproof and should be kept away from heavy rain or submersion.

The Contour Cushion footbed is designed specifically for this model; while they can sometimes be removed, replacing them with generic insoles may alter the intended fit.

These shoes follow standard UK adult sizing. It is recommended to choose your usual dress shoe size.

The Newford Lace is a casual derby shoe; while appropriate for smart-casual settings, they may be too informal for strict formal black-tie events.

The sole is made from Thermoplastic Rubber (TPR), chosen for its durability, flexibility, and high traction.

Use a soft, slightly damp cloth for regular wiping, and apply a high-quality leather cream or polish to maintain the finish.

This is normal for heritage leather. Wear them for short durations indoors initially to break them in gradually.

Ensure you are using a secure double knot or a standard reef knot, and ensure the lace eyelets are free of debris.

Check if the insole has shifted or accumulated debris; remove and clean the footbed if necessary.
