FAQs

What type of socks are best with these shoes?

Thin to medium-weight casual socks are recommended. For darker suede, consider wearing darker socks initially to minimize the risk of color transfer.

How often should I apply suede protector?

It's advisable to apply suede protector upon purchase and reapply every few months, or more frequently if the shoes are worn often or exposed to wet conditions.

Can I wear these shoes in the rain?

While a suede protector can offer some resistance, these shoes are not designed for heavy rain. It's best to avoid wearing them in wet conditions to preserve the suede.

Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?

The Wallabee Cup generally offers a standard width fit. If you have significantly wide feet, trying them on in person is recommended.

What is the main difference between the Wallabee and Wallabee Cup?

The primary difference is the sole unit. The Wallabee Cup features a modern cupped sole, whereas the original Wallabee typically has a crepe sole.

How do I store my Wallabee Cups when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using a shoe tree or stuffing them with acid-free paper can help maintain their shape.

Troubleshooting

Suede losing its texture

Gently brush the suede with a dedicated suede brush in one direction to restore the nap. For stubborn marks, use a suede eraser.

Shoes feel tight or uncomfortable

Ensure you have the correct size. Suede can stretch slightly over time. Wearing them with appropriate socks for a few hours daily can help them mold to your feet.

Water marks on the suede

Allow the shoes to dry naturally away from direct heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to lift the nap. Consider applying a water-repellent spray for future protection.

Color transfer to socks

This can sometimes occur with dark-colored suede. It's recommended to wear dark socks initially. A suede protector spray might help to seal the color.
