The Clarks Pace shoes are designed for immediate comfort and require no break-in period. Simply slip them on and enjoy the instant support. Ensure a comfortable fit; the woven fabric upper should feel snug but not tight. These shoes are compatible with various walking activities, from casual strolls to more vigorous fitness walks, across a range of urban and light trail surfaces. For optimal performance and longevity, proper care is important. After use, allow the shoes to air dry naturally, away from direct heat sources. To clean the woven fabric upper, gently wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing, as this can damage the materials. The unique C-tread outsole can be cleaned with a brush to remove any trapped dirt or debris, maintaining maximum traction. Regular cleaning helps preserve the shoe's appearance and functional properties.
