FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?
The adjustable laces allow for some customization of fit. However, they are designed as standard-width trainers. If you have significantly wide feet, trying them on in person or checking customer reviews regarding fit for wider feet might be beneficial.
What is the heel height of these trainers?
The heel height for these Clarks Hollyrose Zip trainers is 35mm.
Can I wear these trainers in wet weather?
While the leather offers some protection, these trainers are not waterproof. It is advisable to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the leather and maintain their appearance.
How do I clean the EVA sole?
The EVA sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners. Wipe clean and allow to air dry.
What is the benefit of Strobel construction?
Strobel construction involves stitching the upper directly to the lasting insole. This method results in a lightweight and flexible shoe that allows for natural foot movement.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
Yes, the Hollyrose Zip series is available in other color options, though this specific listing is for the white leather variant.
Are these trainers machine washable?
No, these trainers are not suitable for machine washing. Cleaning should be done by hand using appropriate methods for leather and EVA materials.
Troubleshooting
Zip is stiff or difficult to move.
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zip. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the zip teeth and try moving it gently.
Laces feel loose after a short period.
Re-tie the laces ensuring a firm knot. If the laces are old or worn, consider replacing them with new ones for better grip.
White leather appears dull or has minor scuffs.
Use a dedicated white leather cleaner and a soft cloth to gently buff out scuffs and restore the finish. For deeper marks, professional cleaning might be an option.
Slight discomfort on first wear.
Allow a short break-in period. Wear the trainers for short durations initially and gradually increase wear time. Ensure the laces are adjusted correctly for a comfortable fit without being too tight.

Care:
- Cleaning Leather: For general cleaning, wipe the white leather with a slightly damp, soft cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the leather.
- Stubborn Marks: For more persistent marks, use a specialized leather cleaner designed for white leather. Always test the cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.
