FAQs

How do I clean the black suede?

Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and an eraser for scuffs. For deeper cleaning, use a suede cleaning solution with a damp cloth, always following the product's instructions. Always allow to air dry away from heat.

Are Wallabee Boots waterproof?

No, the suede material is not naturally waterproof. We recommend applying a high-quality suede protector spray to help repel water and stains, but avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions.

How do I care for the crepe sole?

The natural crepe sole can attract dirt. Gently rub the sole with a damp cloth to clean. For tougher marks, you can use a small amount of mild soap and water or a specialized crepe sole cleaning product. Avoid harsh chemicals.

What occasions are these boots suitable for?

The Black Suede Wallabee Boot is highly versatile, perfect for both casual settings like weekend outings and smart-casual events such as dinners or office wear. They blend well with jeans, chinos, and even some tailored trousers.

Do Wallabee Boots run true to size?

Clarks Originals generally fit true to size for most customers. We recommend trying your usual UK shoe size first. If you are between sizes, it's often best to try the half size up for a comfortable fit.

Can I wear these boots in all seasons?

These boots are most suitable for dry conditions in spring, autumn, and mild winter weather. Due to the suede material, it's best to avoid heavy rain, snow, or extreme heat to preserve their condition.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or dirty.

Use a suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For more stubborn marks, gently rub with a suede eraser or a damp cloth with specialized suede cleaner.

Crepe sole is attracting excessive dirt and appears discolored.

Regularly wipe the crepe sole with a damp cloth. For tougher grime, use a mild soap and water solution or a specialized crepe sole cleaner to gently clean the surface. Avoid walking on heavily soiled or oily surfaces when possible.

Boots feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.

The Wallabee Boot may require a short break-in period. Wear them for shorter durations at first, allowing the soft suede to conform to your foot shape naturally. Walking in them will help soften the materials.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

First Use

Simply lace up your Wallabee Boots to a comfortable tightness. The flat lacing allows for a secure fit. While the suede is soft, some individuals might experience a slight break-in period as the boot conforms to their foot shape. We recommend wearing them for shorter periods initially to ensure maximum comfort.

Compatibility

These black suede Wallabee Boots pair well with a wide range of attire, from casual denim and corduroys to more structured chinos and even some tailored wool trousers. Their classic design allows them to complement both modern and vintage-inspired looks.

Care & Maintenance

Maintaining the pristine look of your Wallabee Boots requires specific attention to the suede upper and crepe sole:

  1. Suede Protection: Before first wear, apply a high-quality suede protector spray to help repel water and stains. Reapply periodically, especially after cleaning or exposure to wet conditions.
  2. Regular Cleaning (Suede): Use a suede brush to gently remove surface dirt and restore the nap of the suede. For tougher spots, a suede eraser can be used. For liquid stains, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For dried stains, use a damp cloth with specialized suede cleaner, following product instructions.
  3. Drying Suede: If your boots get wet, stuff them with paper to absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight, which can damage the suede.
  4. Crepe Sole Cleaning: The crepe sole is prone to picking up dirt and debris. To clean, gently rub the sole with a mild soap and water solution using a soft brush, or use a specialized crepe sole cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  5. Storage: Store your Wallabee Boots in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape when not in use for extended periods.
  6. Avoid: Do not machine wash or tumble dry. Avoid exposing the boots to excessive moisture or harsh chemicals.
