Rare circumstances – such as weather, transport or other unforeseen events - can delay deliveries. If you think that your order is late, please contact our multi-lingual Customer Care team. You will need to quote the consignment number that you have received from TNT.
I bought two items as part of a 'buy one get one half price' offer – if I want to return one of the items how much will I be refunded?
For a full refund you will need to return both items. If you only return one item, you will be charged full price for the item you keep and the difference will be refunded.
I bought a pair of shoes at their full price but the day after they went into the sale – can I get the difference refunded?
No. Once an item has been ordered the price is fixed for Home Delivery. You do have the option of placing another order at the lower price and returning your original order. However, we are unable to guarantee the availability of sale items.
My goods have arrived faulty, how do I get a refund?
You can return faulty products by going to the 'My account' page, selecting 'My orders/returns' and following the instructions to return an item using the returns label and the re-sealable bag. You can arrange to pick up any item(s) that you wish to return by TNT, from an address of your choosing, between Monday to Friday 8am – 6pm. You are entitled to a full refund on any faulty items. Item(s) should not be returned to a Clarks store. Clarks stores will not be able to refund or exchange your item(s). The reason for this is because Clarks stores in Europe are franchise businesses and therefore not obliged to take returns from customers who have purchased directly from Clarks International. If you have any further questions regarding the returns process or policy, please feel free to contact us us by email, or call our multi-lingual Customer Care team on 00800 2500 2525.
What if my shoes are faulty?
We hope that you don’t have any problems with your purchase from Clarks, however, in the unlikely instance that you do, please follow these guidelines. If you purchased your shoes online, you will need to return them to our UK distribution centre. For more information about our online returns procedure please see our returns policy. To speed up the returns process, we recommend you complete the returns paperwork when sending your parcel back to the UK, or take along your receipt if returning shoes to a store.
Please note, if you bought your shoes in-store, please return them to the store where you made the purchase.
What should I do if I ordered the wrong size or would like to order a different colour? Can you exchange the items?
We do not offer an exchange service. If you are not entirely happy with your shoes you can place another order for a pair of shoes in the correct size/colour and return the other shoes to the Clarks Distribution Centre using the returns label and the re-sealable bag. You can arrange to pick up any item(s) that you wish to return by TNT, from an address of your choosing between Monday to Friday 8am – 6pm. You will receive a full refund for any returned item(s).
What is your returns policy?
If you’re unhappy with your item(s), you can return them for a full refund within 60 days of receipt. Items must be returned unworn, in their original condition and in the re-sealable bag in which they were dispatched to you. We will process your return and any appropriate refund within 30 days of receipt.

When do I get my refund?

You are not delivering yet to my country, can you notify me when you extend your coverage?
Yes, if you sign up to our newsletter we can keep up to date with Clarks news and offers.
How should I care for my shoes?
In order to maintain and prolong the life of your footwear, Clarks recommend the use of our Shoe Protector - particularly for new shoes before they are worn, to help guard against rain and stains. To clean suede, nubuck and fabric footwear, we suggest applying a mild shampoo and, when dry, brushing with a suede brush or block. To keep leather soft and supple, Clarks recommend using a shoe cream - either self-shining or one that needs to be buffed to a shine. To help cover minor scuffs and scrapes a matching coloured cream should be used. In all cases, a re-application of Protector after cleaning helps prolong the maintenance. Due to the weather, footwear often becomes damp and, in this situation, Clarks would recommend the use of a shoe tree which allows the shoes to dry out, without creasing, to their natural shape.
