Technical Specifications

Overview: Clarks' moc-toe boot with a thick sole

The Clarks Cleyhill is a men's boot in dark brown suede that combines the moc-toe apron, a classic of casual footwear, with a thick, lugged rubber sole. It is a mid-shaft lace-up boot, sturdy and warm in look.

It is made for anyone who wants a hard-wearing, comfortable boot for everyday wear, with a classic air and a good-looking suede finish.

Design and style: moc toe and a light edge

The design rests on a moc-toe apron stitched to the toe with visible stitching, overlaid panels with stitching in a matching tone, a low collar and brown laces through metal eyelets. A leather tag with the Clarks name hangs from the laces.

The sole is thick rubber, with marked lugs and a lighter-toned edge that frames the boot and contrasts with the dark suede. At the back there is a small green label.

Materials and finish

The outer is suede, a leather with a velvety surface that shows small variations in tone as the nap is brushed. It is a usual effect in this material and is part of its character.

The sole is rubber with a lug pattern and a thick profile, made to give grip and cushion the step.

How to care for suede

Suede has a velvety touch that is cared for with a specific brush: brushing it is enough to lift the nap and remove dust, and a suede eraser removes light marks.

It is worth protecting it with a suede spray before first wear and avoiding excess water.

Everyday comfort

The comfort of this model rests on a comfortable last that gives the toes room, a low collar that does not rub and a thick sole that cushions the step. The laces let you adjust the fit.

Like any leather footwear, it adapts to the foot over the first weeks of wear. It is worth trying them on with the socks you will wear in winter.

For which occasions

These are boots for autumn and winter: everyday city life, walks in the countryside, travel and casual clothes. Their classic air makes them very natural with casual outfits.

For heavy rain, snow or demanding hiking there are more specific shoes; for urban and mid-season use they are a comfortable, hard-wearing option.

How to wear them

With straight jeans or chinos, dark brown suede looks natural and warm. With corduroy or wool trousers, it adds a classic air. It goes well with navy, grey, green, beige and off-white.

On top, parkas, wool jackets, coats and chunky knitted jumpers all work.

Our opinion at Calzados Vesga

Our verdict is very positive: it is a comfortable, sturdy boot, with a classically styled moc-toe apron and a good-looking suede. It delivers what it promises as an autumn and winter boot.

For anyone who wants a casual, warm, easy-to-match boot, it is a very safe choice.

Size guide and fit

The model comes in EU sizes 41, 41.5, 42, 42.5, 43, 44 and 45. The last is comfortable, with a rounded, slightly wide toe. If you are between two sizes, choose the larger, especially with a wide foot or thick socks.

To measure, stand with your heel against a wall, measure to your longest toe and leave 5 to 10 mm of room. That space stops the toes touching the end and lets the foot swell during the day. The laces will let you adjust the room over the instep.

Care and cleaning

Brush the suede with a suede brush to remove dust and take off light marks with a suede eraser. If they get wet, let them dry at room temperature, away from radiators and heaters.

Do not machine-wash the boots or submerge them. Clean the sole with a brush and a damp cloth. Store them with paper inside so they keep their shape.

Before you decide

They may not be what you want if you need waterproof, dress or very light footwear. They are not sold as waterproof, and the suede should be protected with a spray.

They are perfect if you want a sturdy, comfortable dark brown suede boot with character, for everyday autumn and winter use.
