FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The Clarks Polden Moc shoes with a suede and canvas upper are not inherently waterproof. We highly recommend applying a suitable water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede and fabric materials to offer protection against moisture and spills.
How do I best clean the navy suede?
For routine cleaning, use a suede brush to gently brush off dry dirt and restore the nap. For more persistent marks, a suede eraser or a specialized suede cleaner can be used. Always follow the cleaner's instructions and test on an inconspicuous area first.
Can I use my own orthotics with these shoes?
Yes, the Polden Moc shoes feature a removable Contour Cushion footbed. You can easily remove it and insert your custom orthotics or preferred insoles for personalized support and comfort.
What kind of occasions are these shoes suitable for?
These shoes are designed for smart-casual styling, making them incredibly versatile. They are perfect for daily wear, office environments with a business-casual dress code, social gatherings, and other events where a comfortable yet refined look is desired.
What is the heel height of these shoes?
The heel height of the Clarks Polden Moc shoes is approximately 3.5cm or 1.38 inches.
Are these shoes heavy?
No, they feature an ultra-soft and lightweight C360 EVA sole, designed to keep steps as light as a cloud, providing excellent comfort without added bulk.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
Adjust the authentic lacing system. Loosen or tighten the laces evenly across the vamp to achieve a comfortable and secure fit. Consider wearing with different thicknesses of socks.
Suede appears dull or dirty.
Use a specialized suede brush to gently clean off surface dirt and restore the nap. For stubborn marks, a suede eraser or a small amount of suede cleaner applied with a clean cloth can be effective. Always test in an inconspicuous area first.
Footbed comfort is not optimal.
Ensure the removable Contour Cushion footbed is properly positioned inside the shoe. If persistent discomfort, consider replacing it with a personal orthotic or a different comfort insole, as the footbed is designed to be removable.
Shoes make squeaking noises.
A common cause can be friction between the removable footbed and the sole. Try removing the footbed, sprinkling a small amount of cornstarch or baby powder inside the shoe, and then reinserting the footbed. This can reduce friction.

Care Instructions
Maintaining the premium suede and canvas of your Polden shoes ensures their longevity and appearance.
- Suede Protection: Before first wear and periodically thereafter, apply a high-quality suede and nubuck protector spray. This helps repel water and stains.
- Cleaning Suede: For dry dirt, gently brush the suede with a suede brush (often a rubber or brass wire brush) to lift dirt and restore the nap. For tougher spots, use a specialized suede eraser or a dedicated suede cleaner according to product instructions.
- Cleaning Canvas: For canvas areas, gently wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid saturating the material.
- Drying: If shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources or sunlight.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
- Avoid: Do not machine wash or use harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the materials.
