Sailview Lace Boat Shoes - Brown - 9.5

Yes, absolutely! The Sailview Lace Boat Shoes feature a slip-resistant outsole, which is specifically designed to provide enhanced traction, making them ideal for use on boat decks and other wet surfaces.

While the leather construction offers some natural resistance to light moisture, these shoes are not fully waterproof. For heavy rain, we recommend using a leather protector spray and allowing them to dry naturally if they get wet.

To clean the brown leather, gently wipe off any dirt or dust with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning or scuffs, use a dedicated brown leather cleaner and conditioner, following the product's instructions. Always allow to air dry.

Clarks shoes typically run true to UK sizing. We recommend checking your usual Clarks size. If you have wider feet, please note that other variants of the Sailview Lace are available in a Wide Fit.

For a classic nautical look and optimal comfort in warm weather, many choose to wear these shoes with no-show socks or thin cotton socks. You can also wear them barefoot, though no-show socks can help with moisture wicking.

No, the Sailview Lace Boat Shoes feature a lightweight EVA outsole. This design choice ensures they are light on your feet, contributing to all-day comfort without feeling cumbersome.

Leather shoes often require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations around the house initially, and the leather will gradually soften and conform to your foot shape.

Inspect the outsole for any dirt, mud, or small stones lodged in the flexed grooves. Clean the outsole thoroughly with a brush and water to restore maximum traction. If the outsole is excessively worn, consider if it's time for replacement.

Clean the shoes gently with a damp cloth, then apply a suitable leather conditioner or polish to moisturize and protect the material. Buff lightly with a clean, dry cloth to restore shine.
