Clarks Cotrell Free - Brown - UK 8.5

'H Fit' denotes a wider fitting width provided by Clarks, offering more room in the shoe compared to a standard fit.

The Cotrell Free is primarily a casual shoe. While its leather construction offers a smart appearance, it is best suited for casual or business-casual settings, not formal events.

Wipe the leather with a damp cloth. For tougher marks, use a specialized leather cleaner. Follow up with a leather conditioner or polish to maintain the material.

Yes, the insole is typically removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics or alternative insoles if desired.

The heel height is approximately 40mm.

These shoes are made from leather and are not inherently waterproof. They offer some resistance to light moisture but are not designed for wet conditions.

The EVA sole is lightweight and provides excellent cushioning and flexibility for everyday wear. For extremely rugged use or abrasive surfaces, it may wear faster than more robust rubber soles.

The leather upper is designed to stretch and conform to your foot. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to break in. If they remain uncomfortable, consider if the 'H' fit is sufficiently wide for your needs.

This can sometimes occur due to friction between the insole and the sole. Try placing a small piece of talcum powder or a dryer sheet under the insole. Ensure the insole is properly seated.

Apply a quality leather conditioner or polish specifically designed for your shoe's color. Gently buff the leather after application to restore shine and moisture.

The EVA sole offers good grip for everyday surfaces. For increased traction on very smooth or wet surfaces, consider using a product designed to add grip to shoe soles, or consult a cobbler.
