FAQs
Are these sandals suitable for water activities like swimming or splashing in puddles?
No, the Clarks Playsunreef Flat Sandal features a leather upper, which is not designed for prolonged water immersion. Getting them excessively wet can damage the leather and affect the sandal's longevity. They are best suited for dry conditions and everyday wear.
How do I clean the leather part of the sandals?
To clean the leather, gently wipe it with a soft, damp cloth. For more stubborn marks, you can use a very small amount of mild leather cleaner specifically formulated for footwear. Always allow the sandals to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
Can my child put on these sandals by themselves?
Yes, absolutely! The Playsunreef Flat Sandal is specifically designed with elastic lacing and a convenient riptape strap to make it easy for children to put on and take off the sandals independently, promoting their self-sufficiency.
What is the sole made of, and is it cushioning for active play?
The sole features a durable rubber outer layer that wraps up for protection against abrasion. Inside, there's a lightweight, part-recycled EVA midsole specifically designed to absorb impact and provide comfortable cushioning for active play, running, and jumping.
Are these sandals true to size?
Clarks footwear generally fits true to size. However, for the best fit, we recommend referring to a Clarks size guide if available, and measuring your child's foot. A proper fit ensures maximum comfort and support.
Can these sandals be worn for long periods?
Yes, thanks to their lightweight design and impact-absorbing EVA midsole, the Playsunreef Flat Sandal is designed for comfort and can be worn for extended periods during daily activities and active play.
Troubleshooting
Sandal feels loose or keeps coming off.
Ensure the riptape strap is securely fastened and adjusted correctly to your child's foot for a snug, yet comfortable fit. Check if the sandal size is appropriate; too large a size can cause looseness.
Leather appears dull or scuffed.
Gently clean the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For scuffs, a small amount of mild leather conditioner or polish designed for the leather type can help restore its appearance. Consider using a leather protector regularly.
Child complains of discomfort after prolonged wear.
Verify that the sandal size is correct and not too small, which can cause pressure points. Ensure no debris or small objects are inside the sandal. The EVA midsole is designed for comfort, but proper sizing is key.
Sole shows signs of premature wear in specific areas.
While the rubber sole is designed for durability and abrasion resistance, very active play or dragging feet can cause wear. Ensure the child's walking gait is not uneven. Rotating with other footwear can also extend lifespan.
Sandal has an odor.
Allow the sandals to air out fully after each wear. If necessary, sprinkle a small amount of baking soda inside and let it sit overnight, then shake it out. Ensure feet are clean and dry before wearing.

Care Instructions
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your Clarks Playsunreef Flat Sandals, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: For general dirt and scuffs on the leather, gently wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. For more stubborn marks, use a very mild leather cleaner specifically designed for footwear, applied sparingly.
- Drying: If the sandals get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight. Excessive heat can cause leather to crack or stiffen.
- Protection: Consider applying a leather protector spray suitable for footwear to help repel water and stains, safeguarding the leather from daily wear and tear.
- Storage: When not in use, store the sandals in a cool, dry place. Avoid storing them in damp or humid environments, which can damage the leather.
- Avoid Immersion: Do not submerge the sandals in water, as prolonged exposure can damage the leather and affect the sole's adhesion.
