Motion Trek LX - Clarks - Brown - Leather - 12 UK

No, the Motion Trek LX is designed as a sports-inspired casual shoe optimized for walking and everyday wear, not for high-performance running or intense athletic activities.

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For deeper cleaning, apply a dedicated leather cleaner sparingly, following the product's instructions. Always allow the shoes to air dry completely.

The Clarks Motion Trek LX is made from leather, which offers some natural resistance to light moisture. However, they are not fully waterproof. We recommend applying a leather-specific waterproofing spray for enhanced protection against water.

Motion Tread Technology is a Clarks innovation that incorporates a rocker heel and specialized sole design to support and encourage your foot's natural walking motion, providing enhanced comfort and reducing fatigue.

For optimal comfort and to manage moisture, we recommend wearing athletic or casual socks made from breathable materials like cotton blends or merino wool. Avoid overly thick socks that might make the fit too tight.

Info needed: It depends on the specific construction. Many Clarks casual shoes have removable insoles. Gently check if the insole can be lifted without damage. If so, they can likely be replaced with orthopedic or comfort insoles.

Ensure your laces are adjusted correctly; a fit that is too tight or too loose can reduce comfort. Also, check your socks for adequate cushioning and moisture-wicking properties. Consider replacing insoles with aftermarket options designed for enhanced support after a long period of use.

Clean the leather thoroughly using a damp cloth or leather cleaner. Once dry, apply a high-quality leather conditioner or cream. This will moisturize the leather, restoring its luster and preventing cracks.

While the rubber outsole offers good traction, extremely smooth or wet surfaces can still pose a challenge. Ensure the outsoles are clean and free from embedded debris. For persistent slipperiness, consider products designed to enhance shoe grip, though these are typically temporary solutions.

Try using a 'surgeon's knot' or a 'double knot' when tying your laces. This often provides a more secure hold than a standard knot and can prevent loosening during activity.

Squeaking can sometimes come from the insole rubbing against the inside of the shoe. Try removing the insole, dusting the inside of the shoe with baby powder or cornstarch, and then reinserting the insole. If the squeak persists, it might be an issue with the outsole or construction, in which case contact customer support.
