FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for everyday school wear?
Yes, the Clarks Laser Cross K shoes are specifically designed for daily school use, offering a blend of comfort, durability, and a smart appearance.
How do the rip-tape fastenings work?
The dual rip-tape fastenings allow for quick and easy adjustments, ensuring a secure and personalized fit for the wearer. They are simple for children to manage independently.
What is Microban® and what does it do?
Microban® is an antimicrobial technology integrated into the shoe's lining. It helps to inhibit the growth of odor-causing bacteria, keeping the shoes and feet feeling fresher for longer.
Can these shoes be worn for sports activities?
While the shoes feature a robust sole and enhanced grip suitable for active play, they are primarily designed as school shoes and are not intended for specialized or intense sports activities like dedicated athletic trainers.
What material are the soles made from?
The soles of the Clarks Laser Cross K shoes are made from durable rubber, providing good traction and longevity.
How should I clean the leather?
For best results, wipe the leather uppers with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning and to maintain the leather's condition, use a suitable black shoe polish or leather conditioner.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too loose or too tight
Adjust the dual rip-tape fastenings. Ensure both straps are pulled firmly but not uncomfortably tight for a secure fit. If persistent, verify the shoe size.
Shoes develop an odor despite Microban® lining
While Microban® helps, it's not a permanent solution. Remove the shoes and allow them to air out thoroughly after each wear. Consider using a shoe deodorizer or changing socks daily. Ensure feet are clean and dry before wearing.
Sole grip seems reduced
Check the grooves in the sole for accumulated dirt, mud, or small stones. Clean these out with a stiff brush to restore optimal grip. If the sole is excessively worn, replacement may be necessary.
Leather uppers look dull or scuffed
Clean the uppers with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Apply a small amount of black shoe polish or leather conditioner using a soft cloth, then buff to a shine. Regular care prevents excessive wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Getting started with your Clarks Laser Cross K shoes is straightforward:
- Open the dual rip-tape fastenings fully.
- Slide your foot into the shoe.
- Securely close both rip-tape straps, adjusting for a comfortable and snug fit. Ensure they are not too tight to allow for movement, but tight enough to prevent slipping.
Compatibility
These shoes are designed for:
- Age Group: Kids, specifically in UK children's size 12.
- Usage: Ideal as a primary school shoe, suitable for daily wear, school activities, and active play during breaks.
- Gender: Male (though the "Laser Cross" series may have unisex variants, this specific variant is indicated for male).
Care
Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your Clarks Laser Cross K shoes:
- Cleaning Leather Uppers: Wipe clean regularly with a damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For deeper cleaning, use a specialist leather cleaner suitable for black school shoes. After cleaning, use a black shoe polish or protector to maintain the leather's suppleness and shine.
- Cleaning Soles: Remove any embedded dirt or debris from the grooves in the sole using a stiff brush. This maintains optimal grip.
- Odour Control: The Microban® lining helps, but allowing the shoes to air out between wears, especially overnight, can further enhance freshness.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators, as this can damage the leather.
