FAQs
Are these loafers true to size?
Clarks shoes generally run true to size. However, fit can vary by individual foot shape. We recommend consulting the Clarks size chart or trying them on to ensure the best fit.
How do I clean the leather upper of these shoes?
Gently wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a leather cleaner and conditioner specifically designed for genuine leather, following the product instructions. Always test on a hidden area first.
Can I wear these loafers in rainy weather?
These loafers are not water-resistant. While light splashes might not cause immediate damage, prolonged exposure to rain or wet conditions should be avoided to protect the leather and the shoe's internal structure.
What is the heel height of the Westlynn Bella Loafer?
The heel height for the Clarks Women's Westlynn Bella Loafer is approximately 1.6 inches (4 cm).
What is the sole made of?
The sole of these loafers is made from durable synthetic rubber, designed to provide good traction and comfort for everyday wear.
Is the insole removable?
Info needed: Please check your specific pair of loafers. Most Clarks insoles are designed for integrated comfort and are not typically removable without potential damage. If you need to use custom orthotics, consult with a shoe specialist.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable
Leather shoes often require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations to allow the material to soften and conform to your foot. Ensure you have the correct size; consider trying a half-size larger if discomfort persists.
Leather appears dull or scuffed
Clean the leather with a soft cloth and a gentle leather cleaner. Apply a leather conditioner to moisturize the material, and then use a black shoe polish to restore shine and cover minor scuffs. Buff with a clean cloth.
Slipping on certain surfaces despite 'non-slip' feature
While the synthetic rubber sole offers non-slip properties, it may not prevent slipping in extreme conditions like ice, oil, or very wet surfaces. Exercise caution on such terrains. Ensure the soles are clean and free of debris.
Difficulty putting shoes on
As a pull-on style, ensure the heel is not collapsed. Use a shoehorn to ease your foot into the shoe, especially when the leather is new. Over time, the leather will soften, making them easier to slip on.

Care Instructions
Maintaining your loafers properly will extend their lifespan and preserve their appearance.
- Cleaning the Leather Upper: Use a soft, damp cloth to gently wipe away dirt and dust. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner according to the product's instructions. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
- Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner periodically to keep the leather supple and prevent cracking. This is especially important if the shoes are frequently exposed to dry conditions.
- Polishing: For a refreshed look and added protection, use a black shoe polish. Apply sparingly and buff to a shine.
- Drying: If your shoes get wet (avoiding heavy water exposure is recommended as they are not water-resistant), allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like radiators or hairdryers, as this can damage the leather.
- Storage: Store your loafers in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
- Sole Care: Periodically check the synthetic rubber sole for embedded debris and clean as needed to maintain its non-slip properties.
