FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The shoes offer a standard fit. While the laces allow for some adjustment, individuals with significantly wide feet may find them snug. It is recommended to try them on if possible.

How do I clean mud from the suede?

Allow the mud to dry completely. Once dry, gently brush away the debris with a suede brush. For stubborn residue, use a suede cleaner, following the product's instructions carefully.

Can I wear these shoes in light rain?

While the suede is treated and a protector spray can enhance water resistance, these shoes are not waterproof. They are best worn in dry or lightly damp conditions. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended.

What is the best way to store these shoes when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees helps maintain their shape and absorb moisture. Keep them in a dust bag or original box if available.

How does the Contour Cushion footbed differ from a standard insole?

The Contour Cushion footbed is designed with ergonomic support to provide enhanced comfort and cushioning throughout the day, adapting to the natural contours of the foot for better wearability compared to a generic insole.

Are there other color options available for the Lockford Boat series?

Yes, the Lockford Boat series by Clarks is available in various colorways and materials, including different shades of suede and leather.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears stiff or dry

Gently brush with a suede brush and consider applying a suede conditioner specifically designed for this material.

Water spots on suede

Allow the shoes to dry naturally. Once dry, gently brush with a suede brush. For persistent spots, a suede cleaner may be necessary.

Laces become worn

Replace laces with standard flat shoelaces of a similar length and color to maintain the shoe's aesthetic.

Soles feel slippery on wet surfaces

While the rubber outsole is designed for grip, it's advisable to exercise caution on extremely wet or slick surfaces. Ensure the outsole is clean from debris.
