Product Information

Full details

The Clarks Originals Trek Mule is designed for men seeking a stylish and comfortable slip-on shoe for everyday casual wear. Its key benefit lies in its easy on-and-off backless design combined with a natural crepe rubber sole for superior comfort. A potential caveat is that suede requires specific care to maintain its appearance. This timeless suede silhouette complements numerous casual looks, featuring a backless model that sits atop a signature natural crepe rubber sole to absorb impact.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The Trek Mule generally has a standard fit. Due to its slip-on nature and soft suede, it can accommodate slightly wider feet as the material offers some flexibility. However, for very wide feet, trying them on is recommended.

Can I wear these in the rain?

It is not recommended to wear suede shoes in wet conditions, including rain, as it can damage the material and cause staining. If they do get wet, allow them to air dry completely and then brush the suede.

How often should I clean and protect the suede?

Regularly brush the suede after each wear to remove dust. Apply a suede protector spray upon purchase and reapply every few months or after cleaning to maintain protection.

What is the heel height?

The heel height is approximately 25mm.

What is the sole made of?

The sole is made of signature natural crepe rubber.

Are these true to size?

Generally, Clarks Originals run true to size. However, it's always best to consult sizing charts and, if possible, try them on for the most accurate fit.

Can I replace the crepe sole?

While crepe soles can wear down over time, Clarks Originals are known for their quality construction. Depending on the extent of wear, resoling might be possible through specialized shoe repair services, though this is not a standard offering.

Troubleshooting

Suede looking dull or dirty

Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, use a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner, following product instructions.

Water spots on suede

Allow the shoe to air dry naturally away from heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to restore the texture. Consider applying a suede protector spray to prevent future water marks.

Crepe sole feels sticky or looks dirty

Wipe the sole with a damp cloth. For persistent dirt, a mild soap and water solution can be used, followed by a thorough rinse with a clean damp cloth. Ensure the sole is completely dry before wearing.

Fit feels slightly loose

The backless design inherently offers a less secure fit than a traditional shoe. If the fit feels too loose, consider using insoles or heel grips for a more snug feel. Thicker socks can also help.

Pros and Cons

  • Classic and versatile style.
  • Durable construction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Clarks Originals Trek Mule requires no setup; they are ready to wear straight out of the box.

Compatibility: These mules are designed for adult men and pair best with casual attire such as shorts, jeans, chinos, and casual trousers. They are not intended for athletic activities or formal events.

Care Instructions:

  1. Suede Cleaning: Use a suede brush to gently remove dirt and restore the nap. For tougher stains, a suede eraser or a slightly damp cloth can be used cautiously. Always allow the suede to air dry completely.
  2. Protection: Apply a suede protector spray to help repel water and stains. Reapply periodically, especially after cleaning.
  3. Sole Care: Wipe the crepe sole with a damp cloth to remove excess dirt. Avoid harsh chemicals, as they can damage the rubber.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use a shoe tree or stuff with paper to maintain shape when not in use.
