FAQs
How do I choose the right size for these sandals?
Customer feedback indicates that the Alda Strap Flat Sandals tend to run small. We strongly recommend sizing up by half a size from your usual shoe size for the most comfortable and accurate fit.
Are these sandals comfortable for all-day wear?
Yes, these sandals feature Clarks' Contour Cushion footbed, which is designed to provide lasting comfort and support, making them suitable for extended periods of wear.
What material are the sandals made of?
The Alda Strap Flat Sandals are crafted with premium off-white leather uppers, offering a supple feel and durable quality.
What is the heel height of the sandals?
The sandals have a comfortable flatform heel height of 30mm, providing a subtle lift without compromising stability.
How should I clean and care for my leather sandals?
To clean, wipe down the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning and conditioning, use a leather cleaner and conditioner suitable for genuine leather. Avoid excessive moisture and store them in a cool, dry place to maintain their shape and appearance.
Can these sandals be worn in wet conditions?
While the leather is durable, it is best to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or submersion in water to prevent damage to the material and maintain the sandal's integrity.
Troubleshooting
Sandals feel too tight or too loose.
Adjust the metal hardware side strap. Loosen or tighten the strap until you achieve a comfortable and secure fit. Ensure your foot is properly positioned on the footbed.
Discomfort after extended wear.
While the Contour Cushion footbed provides excellent comfort, if discomfort persists, ensure you have sized up by half a size as recommended. Allow for a short break-in period if they are new. If pain continues, consult a foot care professional.
Leather appears dull or dirty.
Clean the leather uppers with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn dirt or to restore shine, use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner suitable for off-white leather. Always follow the product instructions for the leather care items.
Sandal slips on certain surfaces.
The lightweight sole is designed for comfort and ease. While generally providing good traction, exercise caution on wet or extremely smooth surfaces. Ensure the sole is clean and free of debris that might reduce grip.
