FAQs

Can I replace the insole?

Yes, the Aldwin2 features a removable moulded EVA footbed, making it compatible with various aftermarket inserts.

Are these suitable for wet weather?

The rubber outsole provides good grip, but as they are made of leather, it is recommended to use a protective leather spray if you expect heavy rain.

How do I choose the right size?

These shoes follow standard UK sizing for adults; if you are between sizes, consider your preferred fit for dress shoes.

Can these be worn with formal suits?

While they are versatile, they are best suited for smart-casual and business-casual attire rather than strictly formal suits.

Does the leather colour vary?

Yes, as the shoes are hand-finished, slight individual variations in the leather appearance are expected and normal.

Troubleshooting

Leather looks dull or loses its finish

Use a matching shoe cream or polish to restore moisture and colour vibrancy.

Footbed feels less supportive over time

Remove the EVA footbed, clean it gently, and allow it to dry fully, or replace it if it has compressed significantly.

Shoes are stiff during initial wears

Avoid wearing them for full days immediately; allow the leather and footbed time to soften through gradual wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Clarks Aldwin2 Derby shoes remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:

  1. Breaking In: Wear them for short durations indoors initially to allow the leather to mould to your foot shape.
  2. Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to remove surface dirt daily. For deeper cleaning, use a leather-specific cleaner.
  3. Conditioning: Apply a high-quality leather conditioner every few months to prevent the material from drying out or cracking.
  4. Storage: Store away from direct heat sources to maintain the leather’s elasticity and use shoe trees to keep the shape defined.
  5. Footbed Care: Remove the EVA footbed occasionally to air it out and wipe with a damp cloth if necessary.
