FAQs
What is the best way to clean the leather uppers?
Gently brush off loose dirt with a soft brush. For stains, use a slightly damp cloth. For deeper cleaning or conditioning, use a product specifically designed for leather footwear.
How do I maintain the crepe sole?
Wipe the crepe sole with a damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, a soft brush or a specialized crepe sole cleaner can be used. Avoid harsh chemicals that might damage the material.
Are these trainers suitable for wide feet?
The Wallabee has a classic fit. While the leather can stretch slightly over time, it's advisable to try them on or consult sizing guides if you have particularly wide feet.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
While the leather can be treated for water resistance, the crepe sole is not ideal for very wet conditions and can absorb moisture. It's best to avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain.
What material is the sole made of?
The sole is made of signature Clarks Originals crepe rubber, known for its cushioning and distinctive look.
How do I know if I have the right size?
The trainers should feel snug but not tight. There should be enough room to wiggle your toes. It's recommended to try them on, preferably at the end of the day when your feet are slightly larger.
Do these trainers come in other colors?
Yes, the Clarks Originals Wallabee series is available in various colors and materials. Please check product listings for available options.
Troubleshooting
Leather appears dry or dull
Apply a quality leather conditioner to restore moisture and sheen. Ensure you are not exposing the shoes to excessive heat or direct sunlight.
Crepe sole is dirty or scuffed
Gently clean the sole with a damp cloth. For scuffs, try using a pencil eraser or a specialized crepe sole cleaner. Avoid abrasive materials.
Initial stiffness or discomfort
Wear the trainers for short periods initially to allow the leather to break in and conform to your foot shape. Consider wearing thicker socks during the break-in period.
Water marks on leather
Allow the shoes to dry naturally away from heat. Once dry, clean and condition the affected area. Using a water repellent spray can help prevent future marks.
