Product Information
Full details
The Clarks Originals Wallabee Lite is designed for women seeking the iconic 1968 moc toe aesthetic updated with contemporary lightweight materials for everyday casual wear. These shoes offer the significant benefit of an engineered EVA sole and a removable foam footbed that provides immediate stability and a broken-in feel right out of the box. While they provide excellent comfort, potential users should note that the premium suede material requires careful maintenance to preserve its vibrant red finish against wet or harsh environmental conditions.

FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the suede upper is not waterproof. It is recommended to use a suede protector spray to add a light layer of water resistance.
Can I replace the insole?
Yes, the foam footbed is removable, allowing you to easily swap it for a different insert or an orthotic device.
How should I clean the suede?
Use a dedicated suede brush and an eraser specifically designed for suede to lift surface dirt. Avoid using water or soap.
Does the EVA sole provide good grip?
The EVA sole is engineered for durability and weight reduction, providing reliable traction for standard urban surfaces.
Are these shoes true to size?
They generally fit true to standard UK sizing, but the suede upper will slightly relax with wear.
Troubleshooting
Suede looks dull or matted
Use a soft suede brush to gently lift the nap of the material in one direction.
Shoe feels slightly loose
Adjust the lace tension or add a thin under-sole insert to fine-tune the fit since the footbed is removable.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Clarks Originals, start by selecting the lacing style that matches your outfit—the tonal flat laces offer a streamlined look, while the white flecked laces provide a sporty contrast. Since the footbed is removable, you can easily insert custom orthotics if additional arch support is needed. To care for the suede, use a specialized suede brush to remove surface dust and a suede-specific water repellent spray before initial wear to protect against minor liquid spills. Avoid excessive exposure to heavy rain or mud, as suede can be difficult to clean once saturated.
