FAQs
How do I protect my black suede shoes from water?
It's highly recommended to apply a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede before the first wear and reapply periodically according to product instructions. However, these shoes are not waterproof and should be avoided in heavy rain.
Are these shoes true to size?
Clarks shoes generally run true to size. We recommend ordering your usual UK shoe size. If you are between sizes, consider trying the larger size for optimal comfort, especially if you plan to wear thicker socks.
Can I wear these shoes in winter?
While the suede offers some warmth, the Torhill Lo is primarily a casual shoe. It's not designed for harsh winter conditions, snow, or slush, as excessive moisture and salt can damage the suede. They are more suitable for dry, cooler weather.
What is the best way to store these shoes?
Store your suede shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture, preventing creases and odors. Keep them in a breathable shoe bag to protect the suede from dust.
How do I remove scuff marks from the suede?
For light scuffs, use a suede eraser or a clean pencil eraser to gently rub away the mark. Follow up by brushing the suede with a suede brush to restore the nap. For deeper marks, a professional suede cleaner may be necessary.
Troubleshooting
Suede appears dirty or stained.
Gently brush the affected area with a soft-bristled suede brush to remove loose dirt. For stubborn stains, use a suede cleaner specifically designed for the material. Always test the cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.
Shoes feel a bit stiff during initial wear.
Like many quality shoes, the Torhill Lo may require a short break-in period. Wear them for shorter durations initially to allow the suede and sole to conform to your feet. The Wallabee™-inspired design typically provides a comfortable fit once broken in.
Suede looks matted or flattened.
Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap of the suede. Brush in one direction to lift the fibers and restore its original texture and appearance.
Laces frequently come undone.
Ensure you are using a strong, double knot to secure the laces. If the original laces are too slippery, consider replacing them with laces made from a different material that offers better grip.

These lace-up shoes require minimal setup—simply adjust the laces for a comfortable, secure fit. They are designed for compatibility with a wide range of casual attire, from denim to tailored trousers. For optimal performance and longevity, proper care of the black suede is essential. Before first wear, it's recommended to apply a suede protector spray to guard against water and stains. For cleaning, use a dedicated suede brush to remove loose dirt and a specialized suede eraser for scuffs. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or excessively wet conditions, as moisture can damage the suede and alter its appearance. Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
