Clarks Aldwin Limit - Brown - UK 9.5

Regular cleaning (wiping down) should be done after every few wears. Conditioning should be done every 2-4 weeks, depending on how often you wear them and the climate. Polishing can be done every 4-6 weeks or as needed to maintain shine and cover scuffs.

While the premium leather is durable, these shoes are not waterproof. It is recommended to apply a water and stain protector spray specifically designed for leather shoes to provide some resistance against light rain. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or puddles to prevent damage.

Clarks shoes generally run true to size in UK measurements. However, shoe fit can vary. We recommend trying them on to ensure the best fit. If purchasing online, consult the Clarks size guide.

The Contour Cushion footbeds are designed to be an integral part of the shoe's comfort system and are generally not designed for easy removal. Attempting to remove them might damage the shoe or compromise its comfort features. Info needed: [Confirm if insoles are truly non-removable]

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using cedar shoe trees is highly recommended as they help absorb moisture, maintain the shoe's shape, and prevent creasing. Keep them in a shoe bag to protect them from dust and scratches.

While versatile, brogues are generally considered smart casual to formal footwear. Pairing them with shorts is typically not recommended as it can create a mismatched aesthetic. They are best suited for trousers, chinos, or smart dark jeans.

This is common with new leather shoes. Wear them for short periods around the house to allow the leather to stretch and mold to your feet. Thinner socks can also help initially.

The leather needs conditioning. Clean the shoes thoroughly, then apply a quality leather conditioner. For deeper issues, a leather restorer might be needed, followed by conditioning.

Minor scuffs can often be buffed out with a soft cloth and a dab of shoe polish in the matching brown color. For deeper scratches, you may need to apply several layers of polish and buff carefully.

Squeaking can sometimes come from a loose insole or the friction between parts of the shoe. Try removing and reinserting the insole. If it persists, try applying a small amount of talcum powder or cornstarch under the insole to reduce friction. If the squeak is from the upper, conditioning the leather can help.

If your shoes get wet, stuff them tightly with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat. Once dry, clean, condition, and polish them to restore their appearance.
