FAQs

What type of socks are best with these shoes?

No-show socks are ideal to maintain the clean look of the low shoe style. Regular socks can also be worn, but they may be visible.

Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?

While the suede can be treated for water resistance, these shoes are not designed for heavy rain or wet conditions. It's best to avoid prolonged exposure to moisture to protect the suede.

How often should I use a suede protector spray?

It is recommended to apply a suede protector spray when the shoes are new and reapply every few months, especially after cleaning or exposure to moisture.

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The fit can vary. If you have wider feet, it's advisable to try them on in person or check customer reviews regarding fit and width.

What is the Contour Cushion footbed?

The Contour Cushion footbed is a comfort technology designed by Clarks that provides targeted cushioning and support for enhanced all-day wearability.

Can the suede logo fob be removed?

The Torhill-branded logo fob is a decorative element and is typically attached securely. It is not designed to be removed.

Troubleshooting

Suede color appears faded or dull

Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and restore color. A suede cleaner or color restoring spray may be needed for deeper dullness, following product instructions carefully.

Shoes feel slightly tight

Suede can stretch slightly with wear. Try wearing them around the house with thicker socks. If still uncomfortable, consider using shoe trees to gently stretch them over time.

Water stains on the suede

Allow the shoes to air dry completely. Once dry, use a suede brush to try and lift the stain. For persistent stains, a specialized suede cleaner might be necessary.

Outsole appears worn

Minor wear is normal. If the tread is significantly worn and affecting grip, consider consulting a shoe repair specialist. However, for typical casual use, this is unlikely to be an issue for a considerable time.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Clarks Torhill Boat requires no assembly. Simply remove from the box and try them on for fit.

Compatibility: These low shoes are designed for casual wear and are compatible with a wide range of casual clothing, including shorts, jeans, skirts, and dresses. They are best suited for dry to mildly damp conditions.

Care:

  1. Cleaning Suede: Use a suede brush to gently remove dirt and revive the nap. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner can be used sparingly, following product instructions.
  2. Protection: Apply a suede protector spray to help repel water and stains. Reapply periodically.
  3. Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Stuffing with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag to protect from dust and prevent damage to the suede.
