We were served by a very knowledgeable and professional young lady called Francesca at the Hinckley branch of Clarkes, who was so kind and extremely patient with my two boys one of which has extreme sensory issues with clothing, especially shoes. Nothing was too much trouble for her, she gave him time to adjust to the feel of the shoes and she allowed him to express himself and then offered alternative choices, she was calm and polite and really helpful.
The shop had lots of choice of styles in the right sizes for both boys and the whole process was easy and stress free.
Thank you Hinckley Clarkes for making my school uniform shopping easier and thank you Francesca for helping my son to feel at ease.

Deal with Amat, great member of staff

Visited the Selly Oak store to get the kids measured up for school. We were greeted by a young lady named Amat. From the start to the end she was super polite, friendly and very personalable . She measured both of my daughters and made numerous recommendations. A true representative of great customer service. Well done Amat.

Not possible to make a return

Not possible to make a return - after conntacring support, they are saying that their return portal currently is not working and that I should be back after 48 hours. I did, and they keep posting the same message - scam - don't buy Clarks online - if you don't fit - you won't be able to make a return.

Brilliant service by Tom in Forestside

Brilliant service in Forestside last week. Our assistant Tom was extremely helpful. My son has an issue with his legs and needs 2 different shoe sizes, with shoes that are suitable for getting modified with a raise. Tom understood our requirements and took his time searching for shoes that were exactly what we needed. He had a lovely manner and helpful advice. Very much appreciated 😊

Clarks Selly Oak

Visited Clarks in Selly Oak today with 4 very hyper children, trying to sort school shoes out. Ama and Inayaah were very patient and helpful. What is usually a very stressful situation for me was made into a very easy and smooth transaction, thank you 😊

Daania at the CMK store was very helpful, patient at sorting my children's shoes before they start school. It took a while but she was very attentive to ensure both children had correct sizes and for it to fit them properly too.

Nya in the high Chelmer store was so helpful today! I really struggle to fit into any shoes- as I am really small for my age- and she totally got that I didn’t like the shoes displayed in my size and that they were too babyish for me, as I am now going into Year 8. She was very understanding and patient and was happy to go and get shoes for us in the employee’s only area- even though I may have said no to waaay too many pairs!
Thank you, Nya, for making my shoe-finding experience easier! 😊
