FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for everyday school wear?

Yes, the Clarks Jonwin Step Y shoes are specifically designed for daily school wear, offering durability, comfort, and a smart appearance suitable for school uniforms.

Are the shoes waterproof?

These shoes have premium leather uppers, which are naturally water-resistant to a degree. However, they are not fully waterproof. We recommend applying a waterproofing spray designed for leather to provide extra protection against rain and puddles.

How do I clean the leather?

Wipe the leather uppers with a damp cloth to remove dirt. For a deeper clean, use a specialized leather cleaner. Finish by applying black shoe polish and buffing to a shine, followed by a leather conditioner every few weeks.

What is Microban® odour control lining?

Microban® is an antimicrobial technology integrated into the shoe's textile lining. It works to inhibit the growth of odor-causing bacteria, helping to keep the shoes feeling fresher for longer.

Can these shoes be used for sports or physical education?

No, the Clarks Jonwin Step Y shoes are designed as formal school shoes and are not intended for sports or rigorous physical education activities. We recommend using appropriate athletic footwear for those purposes.

How often should I polish these shoes?

For best results and to maintain their smart appearance, we recommend polishing the shoes at least once a week, or more frequently if they are exposed to harsh conditions or get scuffed often.

How do I ensure the correct size fit?

It is always best to measure your child's feet to ensure an accurate fit. Clarks stores offer a fitting service, or you can refer to the Clarks sizing guide online. Ensure there is enough room for toes to wiggle comfortably.

Troubleshooting

Shoes appear scuffed or dull quickly.

Regular cleaning and polishing are essential for leather. Use a black leather polish weekly and buff with a soft cloth or brush to restore shine and cover minor marks. Consider applying a leather conditioner to keep the leather supple.

Shoes develop an odor despite Microban® lining.

While Microban® helps, consistent shoe hygiene is key. Ensure shoes are aired out daily after wear, use cotton socks, and consider removable insoles for easier washing. If odors persist, use a shoe deodorizer.

Laces frequently come undone during the day.

Ensure laces are tied securely. A double knot can provide extra security. If laces are old or frayed, they may not hold knots well and should be replaced with new, durable laces.

Leather feels stiff or uncomfortable.

Leather shoes often require a 'break-in' period. Encourage your child to wear them for shorter periods initially. Using a leather conditioner can also help soften the material over time.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

First Use

  1. Lacing: Ensure the laces are threaded correctly through all eyelets. Tie the laces firmly but comfortably, using a double knot if desired for extra security.
  2. Fitting: Have your child walk around in the shoes indoors to ensure a comfortable fit. Allow a small breaking-in period for the leather to soften and conform to the foot.

Compatibility

These shoes are designed for school-aged boys as part of a school uniform. They are generally compatible with most uniform guidelines due to their classic black leather and formal style.

Care & Maintenance

  • Cleaning Leather Uppers: Regularly wipe down the leather with a damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For deeper cleaning, use a mild leather cleaner specifically designed for footwear.
  • Polishing: Apply a black leather polish (cream or wax) weekly, or as needed, to restore shine and cover minor scuffs. Use a soft brush or cloth to buff to a shine.
  • Conditioning: Every few weeks, apply a leather conditioner to keep the leather supple and prevent cracking, especially in dry conditions.
  • Drying: If the shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, as this can damage the leather.
  • Airing Out: Encourage your child to remove their shoes and socks promptly after school. Allow the shoes to air out overnight to maximize the effectiveness of the Microban® lining and prevent odors.
  • Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
  • Sole Care: Wipe the rubber soles clean with a damp cloth to remove mud or debris, which can impact grip.
