FAQs
Are these ballet flats suitable for formal events?
The Clarks Fawna Lily Ballet Flats are designed primarily for casual occasions due to their relaxed styling. While elegant, they are generally not recommended for very formal events.
Can I wear these in the rain?
No, these ballet flats are not water resistant. It's best to avoid wearing them in rainy or wet conditions to protect the leather from damage and maintain their appearance.
How do I clean the leather?
Gently wipe off dirt with a soft, dry cloth. For tougher spots, use a damp cloth with a a mild leather cleaner specifically for smooth leather. Follow up with a leather conditioner.
What makes them comfortable?
These flats feature a comfortable fit inherent in their design, combining soft high-quality leather with Clarks' commitment to footwear comfort, making them suitable for extended casual wear.
Will the leather stretch over time?
Yes, as with most quality leather footwear, the leather may gently stretch and conform to your foot shape over time, enhancing comfort and fit. This is part of the natural break-in process.
Are these flats true to size?
Clarks typically runs true to UK sizing. We recommend checking Clarks' official size guide if you are unsure or comparing with other Clarks shoes you own. This specific pair is a 6.5 UK.
Can I replace the insole for added support?
While these flats offer a comfortable fit, replacing the insole might alter the shoe's intended fit. If additional support is needed, consider thin, flat orthotic inserts that do not significantly change the shoe's internal volume.
Troubleshooting
Leather appears dull or dry
Clean the flats with a damp cloth and apply a quality leather conditioner to restore moisture and shine.
Flats feel a bit snug initially
Leather shoes often require a short break-in period. Wear them for short periods around the house with thin socks to gently stretch the leather. Avoid harsh stretching methods.
Unpleasant odor from inside the shoe
Remove the flats after wear and allow them to air out. Use shoe deodorizers or sprinkle baking soda inside overnight to absorb odors. Ensure feet are clean and dry before wearing.
Scuff marks on the leather
For minor scuffs, a leather cleaner or a dab of shoe polish matching the black color can often help blend them. For deeper scuffs, professional shoe repair may be needed.

Setup: Simply slide your foot into the flat. There is no complex setup required for this classic design. Compatibility: These ballet flats are designed for casual occasions. They pair well with everyday attire such as denim, chinos, casual dresses, and skirts. Their timeless design makes them a versatile addition to a relaxed wardrobe. Care: 1. Cleaning: Gently wipe off dirt and dust with a soft, dry cloth. For more stubborn marks, use a damp cloth with a small amount of mild leather cleaner, specifically designed for smooth leather. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first. 2. Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner periodically to keep the leather supple and prevent drying or cracking. This helps maintain its appearance and prolongs its life. 3. Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray (non-silicone based) to add a layer of resistance against stains and light moisture, though this will not make them fully waterproof. 4. Storage: Store the flats in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape. 5. Avoid Water: As they are not water resistant, avoid wearing them in rain or wet conditions. If they do get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
