FAQs
Are these loafers true to size?
Clarks footwear generally runs true to size. We recommend referring to the Clarks size guide if you are unsure of your exact fit, or trying them on to ensure optimal comfort.
Can I wear these shoes in the rain?
While the durable rubber outsole provides good traction, patent leather is best protected from heavy rain and prolonged moisture to maintain its finish. For added protection, consider applying a waterproofing spray designed for leather.
Is the footbed removable?
Yes, the Havisham Edge Loafer features a removable Contour Cushion footbed. This allows for easy cleaning, airing, or the insertion of custom orthotics if preferred.
What is the heel height?
These loafers feature a comfortable 35mm low stack-effect heel, providing a subtle lift without compromising stability or all-day wearability.
What occasions are these loafers suitable for?
The Havisham Edge Loafer is designed as a smart-casual staple. It is perfect for professional office settings, business casual attire, or elevated casual wear for social gatherings and daily errands.
How do I maintain the shine of the patent leather?
Regularly wipe the shoes with a soft, damp cloth. To restore and maintain their high-gloss shine, use a specialized patent leather cleaner or conditioner and buff gently with a clean, soft cloth.
What material is the outsole made from?
The outsole is crafted from durable and flexible rubber, designed to provide excellent grip and long-lasting wear.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel a bit snug initially
Leather shoes can feel snug at first. Wear them for short periods at home with thin socks. Premium leather will naturally stretch and mold to your feet over a few wears.
Patent leather losing its high-gloss shine
Clean the surface thoroughly with a soft, damp cloth. Then, apply a small amount of patent leather conditioner or a dedicated patent leather polish with a clean cloth and buff gently to restore the shine.
Footbed comfort seems to diminish over time
The Contour Cushion footbed is removable. If it feels less supportive, remove it, clean it, and allow it to dry. If persistent, consider replacing the footbed with a new one or a custom orthotic.
Squeaking sound when walking
A common cause is moisture between the footbed and the sole. Remove the footbed, sprinkle a little cornstarch or talcum powder inside the shoe, and replace the footbed. This can absorb moisture and reduce friction.
Scuffs or minor scratches on the patent leather
For light scuffs, try gently rubbing with a soft cloth. For deeper scratches, specialized patent leather repair kits or professional shoe repair may be necessary. Prevention is key; avoid abrasive surfaces.

Care Instructions
To ensure your premium navy patent leather loafers retain their beauty and last for years, follow these care guidelines:

- Shine Restoration: After cleaning, apply a patent leather conditioner or polish using a soft cloth to restore their lustrous shine. Buff gently.
- Drying: If they get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally using shoe trees to help maintain their shape and prevent creasing. Keep them away from direct sunlight.
- Footbed Care: The removable Contour Cushion footbed can be gently wiped clean if needed. Allow it to air dry completely before placing it back in the shoe.
