FAQs

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the Clarks size chart or try on the boots in-store. These are UK sizes, so consult conversion charts if ordering from outside the UK. Ensure there is enough room in the toe box and the heel does not slip.

Are these boots waterproof?

The suede material is not inherently waterproof. While a protector spray can offer some water resistance, these boots are best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions. They are not designed for heavy rain or snow.

How often should I reapply suede protector?

It is generally recommended to reapply suede protector every few months, or after cleaning the boots, or if they have been exposed to significant moisture or wear.

Can I wear these with socks?

Yes, these boots are designed to be worn with socks. Thin to medium-weight socks are recommended to maintain a comfortable fit without making the boots too tight.

What is the main benefit of the RelaxLite technology?

The RelaxLite technology combines a moulded comfort footbed with a featherweight EVA sole to provide superior cushioning, impact absorption, and overall lightness for sustained all-day comfort.

How do I clean the EVA sole?

The EVA sole can typically be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. Wipe clean and allow to air dry. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the material.

What is the difference between these and traditional desert boots?

The RelaxLite Moc Desert Boots emphasize modern comfort engineering with a lighter EVA sole and moulded footbed, while retaining a similar aesthetic. Traditional desert boots might have a crepe sole and a slightly different construction focused on heritage design.

Troubleshooting

Suede color appears faded or dull

Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For deeper revitalization, consider a suede-specific cleaning and conditioning product. A suede protector spray can also help maintain color vibrancy.

Laces fray or break

Replace laces with a similar multi-toned or dark brown lace designed for footwear. Ensure replacement laces are of appropriate length and material strength.

Slight water marks on suede

Allow the boots to dry naturally away from heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to gently lift the nap. If marks persist, try a specialized suede cleaner designed for water stains, testing on an inconspicuous area first.

Sole feels slippery on smooth surfaces

Ensure the sole tread is clean and free from excessive debris. The chevron pattern provides grip, but newness or accumulated dirt can affect traction initially. Break-in period may improve grip.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Exceptional all-day comfort due to cushioned footbed and lightweight sole.
Versatile style that pairs well with jeans, chinos, and casual office wear.
Durable construction with quality suede and a secure lace-up fastening.
Excellent traction and stability provided by the specially designed outsole.
Lightweight design facilitates unrestricted movement.

Cons

Suede material requires specialized care and protection against moisture and stains.
Mid-height design might not be suitable for those preferring low-profile shoes.
The contrast sole, while stylish, might show dirt more readily than a darker sole.

May not provide sufficient support for prolonged standing or strenuous activities.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These boots require no specific setup beyond lacing them to your preferred fit. Ensure they are the correct size before wearing.

Compatibility: Ideal for adult men seeking smart-casual footwear. They pair well with jeans, chinos, casual trousers, and even some smart-casual work attire. Suitable for spring, autumn, and milder winter conditions.

Care:

Cleaning Suede: Use a suede brush to remove dry dirt and dust. For tougher stains, a suede eraser can be effective. Avoid using water directly on suede unless using a specialized suede cleaner, and always follow product instructions.
Protection: Apply a suede protector spray to guard against water and stains. Reapply periodically, especially after cleaning or exposure to adverse weather.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
Sole Care: Wipe the EVA sole with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals that could degrade the material.
