FAQs
Can I machine wash my Clarks Polden Moc White Canvas shoes?
No, it is not recommended to machine wash these shoes. Machine washing can damage the canvas, adhesives, and the integrity of the C360 EVA sole and Contour Cushion footbed. Spot cleaning is the preferred method for maintenance.
Is the Contour Cushion footbed removable?
Yes, the Contour Cushion footbed is designed to be removable. This allows for easy airing, cleaning, or replacement with custom orthotics if desired.
How should I clean the white canvas material?
For cleaning, use a soft brush or cloth with a mixture of mild soap and water. Gently scrub the affected areas. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials. After cleaning, allow the shoes to air dry completely away from direct heat or sunlight.
Are these shoes suitable for all weather conditions?
While the breathable canvas is great for warmer, dry weather, these shoes are not water-resistant. It's best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to protect the material and maintain their appearance.
What kind of fit do these shoes offer?
The Clarks Polden Moc features a 'regular fit.' This means they are designed to accommodate a standard foot width. If you typically require a wide or narrow fit, you may need to try them on to ensure comfort.
What is the C360 EVA sole made of?
The C360 EVA sole is made from Ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA), a lightweight and flexible material known for its cushioning properties. It provides excellent shock absorption and contributes to the overall lightness and comfort of the shoe.
Troubleshooting
White canvas appears dull or dirty quickly.
White canvas is prone to showing dirt. Regularly spot clean with a mild soap solution and a soft brush or cloth. For tougher marks, a canvas cleaner designed for white shoes can be used. Preventative measures like avoiding very muddy conditions can also help.
Footbed feels less supportive over time.
The Contour Cushion footbed is designed for comfort, but like all footwear components, it can compress over time. Ensure you remove and air out the footbed regularly. If significant wear occurs, consider replacing the footbed with a new one or a suitable insole.
Laces constantly come untied.
Ensure you are using a secure knot (like a surgeon's knot) when tying your laces. If the cotton laces have become very smooth with wear, you might consider replacing them with new cotton laces that offer more friction.
Slight discomfort or rubbing when new.
As with many new shoes, a short break-in period may be required. Wear them for shorter periods initially, especially around the house, to allow the canvas and sole to conform to your foot. Ensure socks are worn to minimize friction.
