Product Information
Full details
The Clarks Torhill Bee shoe is designed for adult women seeking a stylish and comfortable casual footwear option with a heritage-inspired aesthetic. Its key benefit lies in its unique combination of archival design elements, like the bold ribbed outsole and Wallabee-inspired silhouette, updated with a contemporary cow print pattern and detailed stitching for a standout look. A potential caveat is that the bold design and 4cm heel height might not suit all casual wear preferences or require a brief adjustment period for comfort.

FAQs
What material is the Clarks Torhill Bee made from?
The uppers are made from 100% leather, the lining is 100% textile, the cushioning is 100% leather, and the sole is 100% rubber.
What is the heel height of the Torhill Bee shoe?
The heel height is 4cm (approximately 1.5 inches).
How should I clean the cow print pattern?
Use a soft, damp cloth for general cleaning. For specific stains on the print, test a mild leather cleaner in an inconspicuous area first, or consult a professional shoe cleaner.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The Torhill Bee features a lace-up design which allows for some adjustability. However, individual fit can vary. It is recommended to try them on if possible or check customer reviews regarding width.
Can I wear these shoes in wet weather?
While the leather can be treated for water resistance, these shoes are not designed as waterproof footwear. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the leather and maintain their appearance.
What inspired the design of the Torhill Bee?
The design is inspired by Clarks' archives, specifically the bold ribbed outsole from the 90s 'Big Gripper' profile, and the silhouette is modeled on the iconic Wallabee™ shoe.
What is the fastening type for these shoes?
The shoes feature a standard lace-up fastening.
Troubleshooting
Leather appears dry or stiff
Apply a leather conditioner to restore suppleness. Ensure you are using a product suitable for finished leather.
Scuffs or minor marks on the leather
For light scuffs, try buffing with a soft cloth. For more noticeable marks, use a leather cleaner or a colored leather restorer that matches the shoe's color.
Shoes feel slightly tight
Wear the shoes with thicker socks for a short period, or use shoe stretchers if the tightness is persistent. Ensure laces are loosened during wear.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
The rubber soles offer grip, but break-in may be needed. If slipping persists on very smooth or wet surfaces, consider a professional sole treatment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: These shoes come ready to wear. Ensure the laces are adjusted to your preferred tightness for a comfortable fit before your first use.
Compatibility: Suitable for adult women. Pairs well with a variety of casual outfits, including jeans, trousers, skirts, and casual dresses. Due to the distinctive pattern, they are best suited for occasions where a bold fashion statement is desired or for adding flair to simpler ensembles.
Care:
- Cleaning: For the leather upper, use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt and dust. For stubborn marks, a specialized leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Avoid soaking the shoes.
- Conditioning: To maintain the leather's suppleness and prevent cracking, apply a good quality leather conditioner periodically, following the product's instructions.
- Protection: Consider using a waterproof and stain-repellent spray specifically designed for leather to protect against the elements and spills, especially given the cow print pattern.
- Drying: If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a shoe bag or the original box, to protect them from dust and damage.
