FAQs
How should I clean the leopard print pony hair?
Gently brush the pony hair with a soft brush to remove dust. For stains, use a specialized pony hair cleaner or consult a professional shoe cleaner. Avoid water-based cleaners directly on the hair.
Will the crepe sole slip on wet surfaces?
The pebble crepe sole offers waxy traction, which is generally good. However, like most soles, extreme wet conditions can reduce grip. Exercise caution on very slippery surfaces.
Are these boots suitable for winter weather?
These boots are primarily fashion footwear. While they offer some warmth and grip, they are not designed for heavy snow or extreme winter conditions. The pony hair and leather may not be waterproof.
How do I ensure the correct size?
Refer to the size chart provided by Clarks Originals or consult measurements for UK shoe sizing. The moccasin construction provides a snug fit, so ensure adequate room in the toe box.
Can I resole the Wallabee boots?
Yes, the crepe sole can typically be replaced by a cobbler experienced with Clarks Originals footwear, extending the life of the boots.
How do I care for the leather parts of the boot?
Clean the leather with a damp cloth and use a leather conditioner periodically to keep it supple and prevent drying or cracking.
What is the 'tallest variation' of the Wallabee Boot?
It refers to the boot's height, which extends higher up the ankle compared to the classic, lower-cut Wallabee shoe or boot.
Troubleshooting
Pony hair appears matted or dirty
Gently brush the pony hair with a soft brush. For stubborn dirt, use a specialized pony hair cleaner according to product instructions or seek professional cleaning.
Crepe sole looks discolored or has scuff marks
Wipe the sole with a damp cloth. For persistent marks, a magic eraser can sometimes be effective, but test in an inconspicuous area first. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
Boots feel stiff or uncomfortable initially
Wear the boots for short periods indoors to break them in gradually. Ensure laces are adjusted for comfort. Leather can soften with wear.
Laces are wearing out
Replace the laces with a similar style and length. Clarks Originals or shoe repair shops often stock replacement laces.
